Because Cystosis is an active process meaning that it requires energy (ATP) for its working. As ATP production requires oxygen. While diffusion does not need energy. That is why cytosis is affected by oxygen but diffusion is not.

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Body temperature must be controlled within a very narrow range so that the body can function properly.

WHEN is glucose created in the Calvin cycle?
Vsevolod [243]
<span> In the chloroplasts of green plants, molecular oxygen is created during the light-dependent reactions on the tetra-metallic manganese-containing active site of the O2-evolving complex of photosystem II when two (coordinated) water molecules are oxidized to yield a molecule of O2. Meanwhile, the Calvin cycle consists of the following intermediate products: RuBP --> 3PG --> BPG --> G3P --> DHAP --> FBP --> F6P --> G6P --> glucose. Thus glucose is produced only in the Calvin cycle, and oxygen only in the light-dependent reactions on photosystem II in thylakoid membranes.  hope this helps! sorry that is long.</span>

What are the functions of:<br>Salivary Glands...<br>Gallbladder...<br>Liver...<br>Pancreas..
vagabundo [1.1K]

Salivary Glands: The salivary glands produce saliva and excrete amylase. Saliva helps lubricate the mouth and oropharynx. Saliva aids in the easy formation of a bolus, making it easier to swallow. Amylase aids in the break down of carbohydrates. The mouth is where the digestion of carbohydrates begins.

Gallbladder: The function of the gallbladder is to store and concentrate bile. Bile helps emulsify fats and neutralize acids.

Liver: The liver has many functions:
*produce bile
*detoxifies blood
*stores some vitamins and iron
* converts excess glucose to glycogen for storage
*converts ammonia to urea
*destroys old red blood cells, excretes bilirubin
*produces cholesterol
*produces certain proteins for plasma
*regulation of blood levels amino acids
*synthesizes albumin and clotting factors

Pancreas: The pancreas has two functions (exocrine and endocrine). The pancreas produces enzymes to breakdown proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids  (exocrine). The pancreas secretes the hormones insulin to lowers blood sugar and glucagon to raise blood sugar (endocrine).
