Answer:

<em>Nephrostomy</em>

Explanation:

<em>Nephrostomy is a surgical procedure usually performed when there is difficulty for produced urine to leave the kidney and find its way to the urinary bladder. The difficulty happens as a result of blockage around the kidney.</em>

When blockage happens and urine cannot leave the kidney, it results to a damage to the kidney. Hence, those experiencing kidney blockage which could be as a result of kidney stone or ovarian cancer usually undergo nephrostomy.

During nephrostomy, a small incision is made on the patient's skin and the nephrostomy tube or catheter is passed through the skin into the urinary tract. The other end of the tube is connected to a urinary bag.

zlopas [31]

Answer:

A series of nonpolar amino acids would most likely be located in the interior region of the tridimensional molecule.

Explanation:

Proteins are formed by linearly arranged amino acids, each with a side chain: the R-group.

Of the 20 different amino acids that compose the proteins, about half of them -10- are non-polar. Their R-groups are not stable if they are in contact with water, meaning that non-polar amino acids are hydrophobic.

When proteins are synthesized, they acquire a three-dimensional structure that makes them more stable. Lineal polypeptides get folded and turn into a shape that makes them more stable in the environment and capable of accomplishing their biological role. When they are in an aqueous media, their bent shape leaves the hydrophilic R-groups in contact with water. The hydrophilic R-groups stick in the center of the polypeptide, facing the protein interior, and avoiding interaction with water.

What is homeostasis... Be discriptive
Semenov [28]
<span>(I got this from my handbook dictionary)
"the tendency toward a relatively stable equilibrium between interdependent elements, especially as maintained by physiological processes."

What that basically means is that homeostasis is the ability to respond to certain environments. It is how you respond to environmental changes and how you basically adapt to it.. that's where the idea of response and adaption came from.

Hope this Helps!! (I had a quiz on this once)
