Answer:

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a nucleic acid that contains the genetic instructions for the development and function of living things. All known cellular life and some viruses contain DNA. The main role of DNA in the cell is the long-term storage of information.

As food is moved through the digestive tract the pancreas and small intestine release digestive enzymes according to signals bas
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

As the food moves through the gastrointestinal tract, and when it reaches the duodenum via the stomach, the food or the paste, that is, chyme becomes acidic because of the presence of acid in the stomach. When this acidic chyme moves towards the first section of the duodenum, it results in the discharging of cholecystokinin and secretin from the duodenal mucosa, which further instigates the pancreas to discharge alkaline pancreatic juice that comprises pancreatic enzymes and bicarbonate ions.  

Now the bicarbonate ions will turn the chyme alkaline and is now known as chyle. It is made alkaline as the pancreatic enzyme needs alkaline pH to function on food. The intestinal juice is also secreted due to the discharging of similar hormones as mentioned above. However, the difference is that both the mechanical stimulus and nervous stimulus results in the discharging of intestinal juice, though it is not true for pancreatic juice.

Compare the movement of oxygen and carbon dioxide across the cell membrane. (4 marks)
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Molecules naturally disperse from areas of higher concentration to lower concentration.

As oxygen-rich (and carbon dioxide-poor) blood travels by a cell the oxygen diffuses through the cell membrane to the area of lower concentration inside the cell. It can do this easily because the oxygen molecule (O2) is very small and has no charge or polarity. The oxygen is used up rapidly by mitochondria. This rapid consumption causes oxygen to constantly move into the cell from the blood.

The mitochondria creates carbon dioxide (CO2) as a waste product of cellular respiration (the process that makes energy for your body). Because the CO2 is of a higher concentration in the cell than in the blood passing by, this gas continually diffuses out of the cell. It too is small and uncharged so it can pass through cell membranes easily.

These movements require no energy (in the form of ATP) on behalf of the cell.
