How does facilitated transport (facilitated diffusion) help a cell maintain homeostasis?

Biology

7nadin3 [17]3 years ago
7 0
Diffusion is when particles move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Think of it like a little kid party with two bouncy houses. Let's say that both bouncy houses have the same number of kids, but then half of the people in one bouncy house decide to go get lunch. Then one bouncy house is really full and the other almost empty! So you move to the empty bouncy house so you have more space to jump. This is diffusion. So it helps homeostasis because (back to the bouncy house example) you helped even out the two bouncy houses. Now let's say the kids come back from lunch. Now that bouncy house is too crowded so you move back to the now-emptier one. This is diffusion and you would be helping maintain homeostasis, or an equal level, in both bouncy houses.

Which symptom should the nurse monitor for when caring for a client whose sinus bradycardia has been treated with large doses of
Rufina [12.5K]

When a patient is treated with large doses of atropine, the nurse should look out for symptoms relating to the drug's antimuscarinic properties like blurred vision, constipation, difficulty with urination, skin rash and xerostomia.

Sinus Bradycardia is a condition whereby a person's heart rhythm is slower than normal ( in adults, it could be as slow as 50 beats per minute ). When this occurs, the heart pumps blood too slowly to supply the patient's body system with enough blood. it happens to mostly adults over the age of 60 years. If conditions persist despite respiratory support, atropine is administered.

Atropine is an anticholinergic drug used to increase the heart rate of a person having sinus bradycardia. When administered in large doses, the patient experiences adverse side effects due to the drug's antimuscarinic effects, like blurred vision, constipation and xerostomia.

  2. Though there are two more ways called transpiration pull and root pressure theory.
  3. Cohesion is the property of water which depicts its attraction properties.
  4. Adhesion is the property of the water which mean water molecules can stick to other particles or molecules.
  5. And is the same reason that is adhesion which gives a boost to capillary action.
