Suppose a person has a small intestine that has a fewer villi than normal. would the person most likely be overweight or underwe

Underweight. The villi of the small intestines are the small structures that do the absorbing of the nutrients, so if you have less, you're more likely to be malnourished. Lack of microvilli would decrease significantly surface area, hence, logically, decrease absorption. But if u eat tons of food, you'll still get fat. fat is absorbed at other siites like large intestines too.

What structures do sponges possess that may prevent other animals from eating them?
Nitella [24]

The answer is spicules. These sharp-pointed structures are formed from calcium carbonate skeleton of the organisms.  They can also be formed from silica. They can be big (megascleres), or microscopic (microscleres). Also dependent on the number of axis on the spicules, they are classified as monoaxon, triaxon or polyaxon.

If you were making a product of artificial "Grow-Lites" for plants, what color light should
UNO [17]

Answer:

<u>-blue and red light</u>

Explanation:

Plants produce sugars or carbohydrates during the process of photosynthesis. They absorb light energy from the electromagnetic spectrum with pigments within the thylakoid membrane, like chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b.

Chlorophylls are made of ringed molecules chlorine, a hydrogenated form of porphyrin with a magnesium ion bonded to four atoms of nitrogen. Chlorophyll a shows the most absorption of red light  (642 nm) and blue light (372 nm); while chlorophyll b shows the most absorption at 626 nm and 392 nm.  

Different types of chlorophyll sidechains change the molecules' absorption ranges; A's methyl group is bound at carbon 7,  B's aldehyde (CHO) ring is bound at carbon 7.  Both absorb light from orange-red and violet-blue wavelengths. As such, the best light wavelengths for photosynthesis are within the blue and red wavelengths (425–450 nm) and (600–700 nm).
