What is the unique structural modification in lymphatic capillaries that increases their permeability?

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Minivalves

Explanation:

Lymphatic capillaries are so much permeable that some researchers thought that they are open from one side but scientists found that this permeability is due to some structural modification.

The endothelial cell that forms the lymphatic capillaries wall are not packed tightly and overlap each other very loosely which makes easy openings in the structure called mini valves.

When the pressure of fluid in interstitial space is high then the mini valves become open and allow the fluid to enter the lymphatic capillary. So mini valves are the unique structural modification that increases permeability in lymphatic capillaries.

How was genetic engineering able to solve the problem of tomatoes being damaged in transit without sacrificing taste?

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

The genetic engineering produced on these tomatoes was the solution to reduce the amount of chemical usage to crops as well as introducing a greater disease resistance, insect resistance, and increase shelf life. Conclusively, scientists and farmers still wanted to keep their natural color and flavor, yet change it into a more positive way. 70 years ago, spoke of the dangers of nightshade foods, covering all this ground, and stating that traditionally in South America, where potatoes and tomatoes come from they were eaten as medicine – that is given specifically for a short period time for a specific condition.

Hope this helped you!

Which of the following is NOT one of the Nervous System Functions?. Single choice.

Neko [114]

Answer:

4. Absorb extra fluid between the cells

Explanation:

The nervous system (SN) is a complex system that acts to receive sensory information through nerves, transmit this information via the spinal cord and finally process it in the brain. The SN has three main roles: sensory input, processing and motor output. The SN can be divided into the central nervous system (composed of the brain and spinal cord), and the peripheral nervous system (composed of those nerves located outside the brain and spinal cord). Moreover, the extracellular fluid between the cells comprises four types of fluids: 1-intravascular fluid (blood), 2-interstitial fluid, 3--transcellular fluid and 4-cerebrospinal fluid. The excess of these fluids is absorbed by the capillaries of the lymphatic system.
