What happens during inhalation?

1 answer:

6 0

Inhalation is the process where oxygen is taking in to the respiratory system thru the nasal passageways and to the tiny alveolar sacs of the lungs. This process also expands the lungs and the diaphragm heightens or elevates upward.

The counterpart of inhalation is exhalation, where the carbon dioxide is taken out of the lungs in opposite of the oxygen passageways.

This two exchange is called the gas exchange or respiration which happens in the respiratory system responsible for enabling and providing oxygen throughout the body.

Which structures add to the fluidity of the plasma membrane:

Stels [109]

Answer:

(a) Carbohydrates are the structures which add to the fluidity of the plasma membrane.

Explanation:

The principle components of plasma membrane are lipids, proteins and carbohydrates which are attached to some proteins and lipids. Membrane fluidity means how much viscous is the lipid bilayer of cell membrane? The membrane phospholipids absorbs fatty acids of different lengths and saturation. When there is amore distance between phospholipids fluidity increases.Another one is the temperature and cholesterol. So these are the three factors which affects the fluidity of the membrane. The rate of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids decides the fluidity of the membrane at cold temperatures. Cholesterol take up the tasks as buffer blocking the lower temperatures from fluidity inhibition and blocking higher temperatures from increasing of fluidity.

Answer:

Option (B) is the correct answer of the following question.

Explanation:

Collagens are a family of enzymes that perpetuate and protect many of the body's tissues, with the exception of connective tissue, femur, fibula, pigmentation, and the caucasian eye (optic disc). It would be the best choice on which to base the phylogeny.

The first and most concentrated substance in the body is the collagen genes.

It is a large, indigestible cellular muscle which maintains organisms and gives internal cells a texture.

Collagen is also an essential part of the crisscrossing membrane neurons.

Other options are incorrect because they are not related to the given scenario.

6. How can an introduced species affect an ecosystem?

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

When a new and aggressive species is introduced into an ecosystem, it may not have any natural predators or controls. It can breed and spread quickly, taking over an area. Invasive species can change the food web in an ecosystem by destroying or replacing native food sources.
