The skin is the body's largest organ. It's made up of many different types of cells. Oils, produced by the sebaceous glands, pre

vent the skin from drying and splitting. The pigment melanin, produced by melanocytes in the epidermis, protects the skin from the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation. Sweat, released through ducts to the skin surface, helps to cool the body. The types of cells that produce these compounds have different numbers of specific organelles, depending on their function. Melanocytes use many enzymes to produce melanin. Based on their function, you would expect melanocytes in the skin to have a higher than usual number of

Based on their function, you would expect melanocytes in the skin to have a higher than usual number of ribosomes.

Ribosomes are cell structures that functions as the site of biological protein synthesis. Ribosomes are present in all living cells where they produce proteins required for many cellular functions. Ribosomes join amino acids together in the order specified by messenger RNA molecules. Ribosomes are made up of two parts which are; the large subunits (which connect amino acids to create a polypeptide chain) and the small ribosomal subunits (which read the RNA).

Hormones can alter the amount of water reabsorbed during urine production, allowing the production of either concentrated or dil
Sedaia [141]

The amount of water reabsorbed during the formation of urine can be changed by hormones, enabling the creation of either concentrated or diluted urine. The duct serves this purpose.

In heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC), air is delivered and removed by ducts, which are conduits or passageways. Examples of the necessary airflows include supply air, return air, and exhaust air.  As part of the supply air, ducts frequently deliver ventilation air as well. As a result, air ducts are one way to guarantee both thermal comfort and adequate interior air quality. The brain releases a substance called antidiuretic hormone (ADH), which makes the kidneys release less water and reduces the volume of urine generated. The body makes less pee when its ADH level is high. A low

Explain the relationship between the food we eat and energy in the body please.
maxonik [38]
Our food is our energy. When we eat food, we need to digest it and the eaten food, once digested, serves as our energy that we use up for daily needs. If we eat too much food, it will be store and we will become overweight over time. If we don't eat enough, we will lose weight because we're not getting enough energy in our bodies, so our bodies cannot get enough energy from the food eaten, so it looks elsewhere for stored energy - our fat and muscle cells.
