The procedure of dialysis maintains the body in balance by withdrawing waste, extra water, and salt by preventing them from accumulating up in the body when the kidneys fail. It helps in maintaining a safe level of some kinds of chemicals in the blood, like sodium, potassium, and bicarbonate. It helps in monitoring blood pressure.  

Hence, dialysis helps in performing a function for the circulatory system of the body.

How do rocks form and change
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Igneous rocks form when molten rock (magma or lava) cools and solidifies. Sedimentary rocks originate when particles settle out of water or air, or by precipitation of minerals from water. Crystallization, erosion, sedimentation, and metamorphism transform one rock type into another or change sediments into rock. The rock cycle describes the transformations of one type of rock to another. The process by which a rock changes form or mineral content as a result of environmental changes such as heat and pressure. a rock that was altered by metamorphism.

The outer hair cells change length in response to basilar membrane motion. What does that accomplish?
olga nikolaevna [1]

Outer hair cells change their axial dimensions in response to electrical stimulation.

What is basilar membrane motion?

Hair cell stereocilia move as a result of the basilar membrane's movement. The tectorial membrane and the hair cells, which are connected to the basilar membrane, move along with it when it moves, and the stereocilia bend in response to the relative motion of the tectorial membrane.

The hair cells that are linked to the auditory nerve fibers are stimulated by the basilar membrane's movement. While the outside hair cells actively affect the basilar membrane's vibrations, the inner hair cells convert hydromechanical vibration into action potentials.

With each sound cycle, the intracellular voltage of the outer hair cells varies, causing them to lengthen and contract. This increases the organ of Corti's vibration, enabling exceptionally high hearing sensitivity and frequency selectivity.

An element's atomic number is 74. How many protons would an atom of this element have?
Dmitry [639]
Atomic number of an atom equals to the number of nucleus in the nucleus of the atom. Therefore, the answer is 74.

The proton of an element is never changed. No matter if it's an atom or ion. It's like an ID number for an element. It defines the type of element. Don't mix up atomic number with mass number though, mass number is the total sum of of the number of protons and neutrons in an atom.

Theres one more subatomic particle in an atom, that is electrons. But since they're too light, they won't be counted in mass. Also, the number of electrons in an atom equals to the number of proton, also the atomic number. If the number of electrons is different, it's no longer an atom, but an ion.
