Answer:

D. The skin

Explanation:

The skin is usually considered as supply-independent for oxygen delivery. The most affected organs and tissues considered as being supply-dependent for oxygen delivery are heart, brain and lungs. These are the most sensitive to oxygen deprivation, being the brain more than the other organs.

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

It controls the rate at which chyme enters the small intestine

Explanation:

Cephalic phase is one of the phase of gastric secretion (other two are gastric phase and intestinal phase) that begins even before food enters the oral cavity. Thinking of food stimulates the release of gastric juice via  parasympathetic nervous system). Food that enters the stomach also stimulates the secretion of gastric juice by parietal cells. Partially digested food directly activates  G cells (Enteroendocrine cells) to secrete gastrin which also stimulates the release of gastric juice.

Why do methane is a gas at room temperature and water is a liquid, even though both molecules are similar in size and mass?
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

Water can hydrogen bond.

Explanation:

Liquids become gases once they are heated to a certain temperature. Heat is a form of energy. This change occurs when the intermolecular forces between the liquid molecules are energized enough to break. This breakage is necessary because gaseous molecules exist individually and do not interact with one another. That being said, it takes more heat to boil water because its intermolecular forces are stronger than methanes.

Intermolecular forces (IMF) are a result of partial charges on the molecular atoms that cause temporary bonds to form between molecules.

Methane is a nonpolar molecule, meaning each atom can only have slight partial charges. The strongest IMF methane participates in are London Dispersion Forces.

Water, however, is a polar molecule, with the hydrogens having strong partial positive charges and the oxygens having strong partial negative charges. This allows water to participate in a very strong IMF called hydrogen bonding. Again, because these partial charges are so strong, the water molecules can form stronger IMFs.

<u>*When molecules have stronger IMFs, they require more energy(heat) to overcome them.*</u>
