What is the food you eat used for

Biology
1 answer:
pishuonlain [190]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

This energy comes from the food we eat. Our bodies digest the food we eat by mixing it with fluids (acids and enzymes) in the stomach. When the stomach digests food, the carbohydrate (sugars and starches) in the food breaks down into another type of sugar, called glucose.

Describe process in the human body in which there is evidence of the cell cycle at work

<span>I suspect this question should read "How long does a red blood cell live." A red blood cell lives for between 100 and 120 days. It takes 7 days for a new red blood cell to develop from stem cells. Stem cells are similar to base cells. They can also be seen as a general template from which specialized cells are made. Stem cells can be taken from a newborn baby's umbilical chord or extracted from an adult blood donor's blood.This

Why is bicarbonate is mixed with water in the leaf disc experiment?
amm1812

Answer:

When sodium bicarbonate is added to the water, the bicarbonate ion acts as a carbon source for photosynthesis causing the leaf disks to sink. As photosynthesis proceeds, oxygen is released into the interior of the leaf, which changes its buoyancy causing the disk to rise.

hope this helps :)

William blake maintained that imagination
Finger [1]

<span>The correct answer is (e). English poet William Blake maintained that imagination was the only medicine that humankind had for the pain of isolation. He believed that imagination, even though belongs to every one of us, is the greater force which can’t be controlled (in a positive way). William Blake said: “The imagination is not a state: it is the human existence itself”.</span>

For the enzymatically catalyzed reactions shown below, classify the enzymes as oxidoreductases, transferases, hydrolases, lyases
Elodia [21]
I found the full exercise on the internet. Attached are the images of <span>enzymatically catalyzed reactions.

Reaction a) - </span>acyl phosphate to carboxylate and phosphate.
The enzyme that catalyses this reaction is the a<span>cylphosphatase, which is a hydrolase, because it uses molecules of water in the reaction.

Reaction b) - </span><span>ATP + an L-amino acid + an L-amino acid </span>to<span> ADP + phosphate + L-aminoacyl-L-amino acid.
The enzyme that catalyses this reaction is the </span><span>L-amino-acid alpha-ligase, which is a ligase because it preforms the bonding of two large molecules.
</span>
Reaction a) - glucose-1-phosphate to glucose-1,6-bisphosphate to glucose-6-phosphate
The enzyme that catalyses this reaction is the Glucose-1,6-bisphosphate synthase, which is a transferase because it transfers a phosphate group from a <span>donating to an accepting molecule.

Reaction b) - </span>NAD^{+}+H_{2} O to NADH+H^{+}<span>
The enzyme that catalyses this reaction is a </span><span>oxidoreductase because it helps oxidising and reducing molecules.

Reaction c) - </span>α-keto acid + Glutamate to Aminoacid + α-ketoglutarate
The enzyme that catalyses this reaction is an aminotransferase, which is a transferase because it transfers an amino group from a donating to an accepting molecule.

Reaction c) - produces a molecule of CO^{2}
The enzyme that catalyses this reaction is a Carboxy-lyase, which is a lyase because it adds or removes carboxyl<span> groups from organic molecules.</span>

A client is receiving chemotherapy to treat breast cancer. Which assessment finding indicates a chemotherapy-induced complicatio
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

Serum potassium level of 2.6 mEq/L

Explanation:

Chemotherapy has many side effects like nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fatigue, fever, etc. Vomiting and diarrhea can affect the fluid and electrolyte balance adversely in the body. This can lead to a reduction in the serum potassium level.

A low level of potassium in the body can lead to weakness, cramp, paralysis, twitch, abnormal heart rhythm, etc. The normal blood potassium level is 3.6 to 5.2 millimoles per liter so a serum potassium level of 2.6 mEq/L is the finding that indicates a chemotherapy-induced complication.
