spin [16.1K]4 years ago
5 0

Most of the alcohol consumed is metabolized by an enzyme present in liver of human beings called as alcohol dehydrogenase.The metabolism of alcohol occurs in two simple steps .During the first step of metabolism  alcohol is converted into acetaldehyde by the enzyme called alcohol dehydogenase (ADG) and the product formed  is acetyldehyde .This acetyldehyde is then broken down into another product called acetate with the help of enzyme aldehyde dehydrogease (ALDH) which in turn is converted into carbon dioxide and water.

What are the four types of tissues?
ElenaW [278]

The term ''tissue'' refers to a group of similar cells. Being a combination of equal cells, a tissue has the same function in any part of the body.

The four types of tissues are:

. The epithelial tissue

. The connective tissue

. Muscle tissue

. The nervous tissue

. The epithelial tissue serves as a cover, among these are the skin and the lining of several ducts inside the body. It is divided into two general classifications: Simple Epithelium and Stratified Epithelium.

. The connective tissue supports and joins other tissues such as bone, blood and lymphatic as well as adipose tissue and reticular tissue.

. Muscle tissue consists of striated or voluntary muscles that move the skeleton and smooth muscle, such as the one that surrounds the stomach. It is divided into three types: Skeletal Muscle Tissue, Cardiac Muscle Tissue and Smooth Muscle Tissue.

. Nervous tissue is formed by nerve cells or neurons and serves to carry messages to and from various parts of the body. This tissue is present mostly in the brains and spinal cord. It has two types of tissue: The Nerve Cell and the Neuroglia.

All of the following are examples of erosion EXCEPT:
Nata [24]

Answer:

Glaciers picking up boulders is not a type of erosion

Explanation:

The four main types of river erosion are abrasion, attrition, hydraulic action and solution. Abrasion is the process of sediments wearing down the bedrock and the banks. Attrition is the collision between sediment particles that break into smaller and more rounded pebbles. Hydraulic action is the force of water against the banks compressing air pockets into cracks, which expand and fracture the rock over time. Solution is the process of acidic water dissolving soluble sediment.

I need any biology project ideas.
Studentka2010 [4]

Did a bit of research, found a cool one.

Did you know that our brains are split into two parts, right inside our head? One half is the left brain and the other half is the right brain. Some people use one half of the brain more than the other half when they are doing certain activities, like talking or reading. The half that is used is sometimes tied to which hand they prefer to use. If someone likes to use their right hand when doing an activity, like drawing or throwing a ball, do they also prefer to use their right ear, eye, or foot when hearing, seeing, or kicking something? Which side do people use the most? In this science project, you will get to find out!

3. In elastic deformation, the deformed body returns to its original shape and size after the stresses are gone. In ductile deformation, there is a permanent change in the shape and size but no fracturing occurs. In brittle deformation, the body fractures after the strength is above the limit. 

4. Normal faults are faults where the hanging wall moves in a downward force based on the footwall; they are formed from tensional stresses and the stretching of the crust. Reverse faults are the opposite and the hanging wall moves in an upward force based on the footwall; they are formed by compressional stresses and the contraction of the crust.  Thrust faults are low-angle reverse faults where the hanging wall moves in an upward force based on the footwall; they are formed in the same way as reverse faults. Last, Strike-slip faults are faults where the movement is parallel to the crust of the fault; they are caused by an immense shear stress.
