In general, the process responsible for the growth and repair of human tissue is the healing process, which takes place in three phases.
1. inflammatory response. Injured tissues release chemicals that draw resources to the area, alert the body that damage has occurred and inhibit function to prevent further injury.
2. Repair phase. Once injured area is walled off and debris removed, construction to replace or repair injured tissue begins. New blood vessels grow in the injured area maximizing transport within tissue.
3. Remodeling phase. Construction of permanent tissue , typically strong scar tissue made from dense network of collagen fibers.
Looking at it from cell level, the process of mitosis is actually taking place during healing.
Mitosis is used for growth and repair and produces diploid cells identical to each other and to the parent cell.
New cells are needed throughout life. These are for growth and replacement of damaged or worn out tissue. The body obtains such through the process of mitosis.
Option C would be correct. The organ system can plays many parts at one time. Also, it is the only system listed.
Hope this helps!
The best answer to fill in the blank would be B) Small intestine or the second option.
Answer and Explanation:
The cell was placed in a hypertonic solution. Glucose is a monosaccharide while starch is a polysaccharide. The concentration on the outside is higher compared to that on the inside. The cells have cell membrane that is semi-permeable.
Movement of molecules is dependent on the concentation gradient. However, the size of molecules determine the diffusion rate. Small and light molecules diffuse faster than large and heavy molecules thus glucose diffused faster than starch.
The cell membrane being permeable suggested that it allows molecules of small sizes to pass but not large ones.
