Answer:

C. Inferior gluteal

Explanation:

The inferior gluteal nerve has a rich concentration in the gluteus maximus muscle. This muscle is located in the hip region. These nerves are primarily responsible for the ability of the gluteus maximus to move and performs some functions during motion.

An example of such function involves the extension of the hip to the thigh in movements such as climbing stairs, hiking, squatting etc.

If a cell divides by mitosis so that one cell eventually becomes part of the brain and the other cell becomes part of a salivary

Nina [5.8K]

Answer: The cells have differentiated.

Explanation:

The process by which a cell changes from one type to another is called cellular differentiation. When this happens, the cell changes to a more specialized type. So this creates differentiated daughter cells which are important in a multicellular organism because they are able to perform different and specialised functions in an organism.

What is an essential role played by large intestine bacteria?

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

The correct answer is: synthesize vitamin K and B-complex vitamins.

Explanation:

The large intestine, an important region of the gastrointestinal tract, is populated with bacteria that maintain our bodies healthy. The term used to describe these organisms that live in the digestive tract is gut microbiota.

The relationship between humans and the gut microbiota is not only non-harmful but also beneficial to humans. Bacteria ferment dietary fibers into short-chain fatty acids for us to absorb it. Gut microbiota also plays a crucial role in synthesizing vitamin B and vitamin K, as well as metabolizing sterols and bile acids. These bacteria act much like an endocrine system that regulates intestinal function with the use of short-chain fatty acids, as if they were hormones.

Vitamin K is important for blood clotting, while vitamin B intervenes in cellular metabolism.
