What is the difference between a hepatic duct and a hepatic vein?​

Biology
2 answers:
rodikova [14]3 years ago

Explanation:

The liver is connected to two large blood vessels, the hepatic artery and the portal vein. The hepatic artery carries blood from the aorta to the liver, whereas the portal vein carries blood containing the digested nutrients from the entire gastrointestinal tract, and also from the spleen and pancreas to the liver.

The hepatic veins carry oxygen-depleted blood from the liver to the inferior vena cava. They also transport blood that has been drained from the colon, pancreas, small intestine, and the stomach, and cleaned by the liver. These veins originate from the core vein of the liver lobule, but they do not have any valves.
The hepatic duck: A duct that carries bile from the liver into the common bile duct which conveys it to the duodenum (the upper part of the small intestine).

Assume a hawk eats five 20 gram birds and one 150 gram rabbit. In terms of biomass, did the
inna [77]

Answer: the rabbit

Explanation:

In ecology, biomass refers to the mass of organisms living within a specific region at a time. Biomass is measured and usually described as:

  • the total mass of the organisms within a community
  • the average masses per unit area

Typically, more numerous organisms, such as producers, have a higher average biomass. This may include plants, animals or microbes such as bacteria and fungi. In terrestrial environments, biomass is distributed in pyramid form; the carnivorous hawk preys on rabbits and birds, which are nearer to the base of the pyramid- each predator population would have a lower biomass than its prey.

The birds weigh 100 grams while the rabbit weighs 150 grams.The rabbit has a higher total mass

The endosymbiotic theory provides an explanation for the origin of chloroplasts. Which trait of chloroplasts supports this expla
kondor19780726 [428]
The double membrane. It's theorized that chloroplasts used to be their own single-celled organism in the environment (and therefore with its own membrane). Then, the theory states, a larger cell took in the chloroplast by endocytosis, which involves surrounding the chloroplast in the large cell's own membrane. The chloroplast would then have two membranes surrounding it. This is similar to the thinking for mitochondria becoming an organelle as well. Hope this helps! :)
