Answer:

Transitional epithelium

Explanation:

Transitional epithelium consists of a epithelial cells that are arranged in a stratified manner or in multiple layers, which gives the cells a structure or ability to change shape. He epithelium tissues n contract and expand as a result of the arrangement of the cells. The cells are connected by junctional complexes.

The transitional epithelium is found in the organs of the urinary system, especially in the urinary bladder, ureters, and urethra. The transitional epithelium found in the urinary system functions in giving protection, allowing the organ to contract and expand, and also to withstand osmotic pressure.

The minimum amount of energy needed to start a chemical reaction is known as:
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

The correct option is B. Activation energy

Explanation:

The activation energy is usually used to designate the minimum energy necessary for a given chemical reaction to occur, that is, the basic requirement for the reaction to proceed.

For a reaction to occur between two molecules, they must collide in the correct orientation and have a minimum amount of energy. As the molecules approach, their electron clouds are rejected. This requires energy (activation energy) and comes from the heat of the system, that, is, from translational, vibrational energy, etc of each molecule. If the energy is sufficient, the repulsion is overcome and the molecules are close enough for a rearrangement of the bonds of the molecules.

The concept of Activation energy was introduced by Arrhenius in 1889. Arrhenius suggested that molecules must prossess a minimum amount of energy to react. That energy comes from the kinetic energy of the clliding molecules. Kinetic energy serves to cause reactions, but if the molecules move very slowly, the molecules will only bounce when they collide with other molecules and the reaction does not happen. In order for the molecules to react, they must have a total kinetic energy that is equal to or greater than a certain minimum value of energy called activation energy.

How do bacteria enable a baby to extract nutrition from the mother's milk?
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Lots of bacteria are present as the microflora of a baby's gut which helps it to extract the nutrition from mother's milk and also helps the baby to maintain a low number of pathogenic bacteria in its gut.

Some bacteria present in the baby gut release enzymes like glycoside hydrolase which helps baby to digest carbohydrate present in the mother's milk.  

Bacteria like Bifidobacterium, Streptococcus, Staphylococcus are already present in breast milk which helps in making gut microflora of baby and this gut microflora helps in extracting nutrients from mother's milk.
