Glucose travels in the plasma or liquid part of

Biology
1 answer:
djverab [1.8K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Glucose is a sugar, highly soluble in water because it has lots of polar hydroxyl groups (-OH) which can form hydrogen-bonds with water molecules. These types of bonds are intermolecular forces which are present in other macromolecules like the DNA or proteins.

Cholesterol and triglycerids are lipids. These have long chains of hydrocarbons, which are non polar and therefore insoluble in water.

Blood is made of a solid and a liquid part. <u>The solid part contains cells</u>. <u>The liquid part (plasma), is made of water, salts, and proteins</u>. Glucose and cholesterol/triglycerids travel in the liquid part of the blood, in an aqueous environment. Because the lipids are not soluble, they need to travel with a carrier protein that keeps them protected from the surrounding water.

OLga [1]
C. Temperature and pH can affect how enzymes work

Enzymes show a maximum activity at an optimum pH and temperature. Changes in the pH or the temperature can cause damage in the structure of the enzymes, if the structure changes the substrate can no longer bind to the enzyme, which is why the activity of the enzymes starts to slow down.

In billiards (pool) there is a collision between the cue ball (white) and all the other balls on the break. Before the collision
DiKsa [7]

Answers

• When the cue ball contact the other ball, momentum is transferred causing then to gain momentum and speed

• Less than 3m/s

Explanation

According to the law of momentum conservation, when two objects in an isolated system collide, the total momentum of the two objects before and after collision is equal .Momentum is directly proportional to both the mass of the objects and velocity. In this collision, the objects interact with each other thus they stick together after collision and move with a similar velocity. I.e. an elastic collision.

You are escorting a patient to the treatment area and notice that she appears flushed and is perspiring. You take her vital sign
alexgriva [62]

The warning sign which is represented by a patient appearing flushed and is perspiring in the case of a medical emergency is dehydration.

<h3>What is Dehydration?</h3>

This is a condition which involves the body losing more fluids than it can and is usually very dangerous due to it causing a a rapid heart rate and a decrease in her blood pressure.

This therefore prevent blood from reaching vital organs and cells in the body which may lead to death. It is therefore advisable to give the affected individual more water or other liquids.

The liquid or fluid helps to restore the balance in the body system in other to prevent the various complications which comes as a result of this condition.

This is therefore the reason why dehydration was chosen as the most appropriate choice.
