If a molecule of co2 released into the blood in your left toe is exhaled from your nose, it must passed all the following except

Feliz [49]

Answer:

The correct answer is option a, that is, pulmonary vein.

Explanation:

After getting discharged from the left toe, the molecule of carbon dioxide is exhaled through the nose, and in the process, it moves via the trachea, the alveoli, the right ventricle, and the right atrium. However, it does not passes through the pulmonary vein as the prime function of the pulmonary vein is to carry oxygenated blood obtained from the lungs and to pass it to the heart's left atrium.

The pulmonary vein is different from other veins found within the body, which carries deoxygenated blood or blood filled with carbon dioxide from different parts of the body to the heart. Thus, it is clear that carbon dioxide does not pass through the pulmonary vein.

Unlike the abdominal viscera the thoracic viscera is separated into two compartments by an area called the mediastinum. What is

borishaifa [10]

The importance of this compartmental arrangement is the fact that the mediastinum region of the body houses essential organs. The region contains the thymus, pericardial cavity, trachea, esophagus and major blood vessels. The separation provides these body parts with a barrier of tissues. The mediastinum also separates one lung from the other. This is functionally important as it allows one lung to work independently of the other in cases where one may be diseased or injured.

The antigens have a specific shape that determines with which white blood cell or antibody it will interact with. What other mol

Leokris [45]

Answer:

The correct answer is: the antibodies' shape.

Explanation:

Antibodies are proteins called immunoglobulins that serve the immune system by responding to a specific antigen and generating the proper counter to fight it.

Each antibody consists of four polypeptides that form a "Y" shaped molecule. The Y shape is given by two heavy chains and two light chains.

The tips of the Y are composed of 110-130 amino acids that vary greatly among other antibodies. This gives the antibody its specificity.

Jorge is conducting an comparative experiment where he is comparing the heights of adults who grew up taking a certain vitamin a

12345 [234]

Answer:

Major limitation of Jorge's experiment are -:

Vast amounts of data can be obtained.
He does not prove definitively that a person is taller because of vitamins.
No association between vitamins and height can be seen.

Explanation:

ABOUT VITAMINS -:

A vitamin is an organic molecule that is an important micronutrient that an organism requires in limited amounts for the proper functioning of its metabolism (or a chemically closely connected group of molecules, i.e. vitamins). In the body, basic nutrients can not be synthesized in adequate amounts, either at all or not, and must therefore be ingested via a diet.

Hence, the major limitations of the experiment are mentioned above.
