Biology
1 answer:
ASHA 777 [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: the correct answer is d. all of the above must happen for defecation to occur.

Explanation:

In response to the distention of the rectal wall, the receptors send sensory nerve impulses to the sacral spinal cord. Motor impulses from the cord travel along parasympathetic nerves back to the descending colon, sigmoid colon, rectum, and anus. The resulting contraction of the longitudinal rectal muscles shortens the rectum, thereby increasing the pressure within it. This then opens the internal sphincter.

Which reaction is responsible for the production of lipids when glycerol is joined to three fatty acids?
Anna35 [415]

This reaction is called a condensation reaction. It is also known as  a dehydration reaction.

When three fatty acids become attached to a glycerol molecule, a triglyceride is formed.  The fatty acids become attached to the glycerol through a condensation reaction named so because 3 water molecules are formed from the 3 OH groups from the fatty acid chains and 3 H atoms from the glycerol.

The bond formed between the fatty acid chain and the glycerol is called an ester linkage.
