Answer:
Jaundice is a symptom of cirhosis which is related to the chronic liver disease
Explanation:
Bilirubin is produced in the body when the hemoglobin protein in old red blood cells is broken down. Erythrocytes continuously undergo a (breaking apart) process. As the red blood cells disintegrate, the hemoglobin is degraded or broken into globin (the protein part), iron, and heme. The heme first breaks apart into biliverdin, a green pigment which is immediately reduced to bilirubin, an orange-yellow pigment. The bilirubin is then transported to the liver where it reacts with a solubilizing sugar called glucuronic acid. This more soluble form of bilirubin (conjugated) is excreted into the bile. The bile passes through the gall bladder then goes into the intestines where the bilirubin is converted into a variety of pigments.
Jaundice occurs when the diseased liver doesn't remove enough bilirubin, a blood waste product, from your blood. Cirrhosis, when in its late stages, can cause Jaundice. Cirrhosis occurs as a result of severe scarring of the liver caused by chronic liver disease. As a healthy liver tissue becomes damaged over time, it is replaced by scar tissue, which affects the structure of the liver and decreasing its ability to function.
Answer:
Estrous cycles give females repeated opportunities to become pregnant throughout their productive lifetime. The cycle is regulated by the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, which produces hormones that dictate reproductive events.
Explanation:
1. Deforestation = the burning of fossil fuels to make energy
2. Combustio = the logging of trees, which removes producers from the carbon cycle
3. Circulation= the process which brings up nutrients from deep ocean
4. Weathering= the wearing down of rocks over time.
5. Calcium carbonate= the primary component to mollusk shells and coral skeletons

2) Chemical substances in food dissolve in saliva
Substances form the food need to be dissolved and and a little bit degraded (by teeth and some of the enzymes in the mouth) in order to react chemically with taste receptors
1) Taste receptors are stimulated
Taste receptors are located in the oral cavity, usually on the tongue but also pharynx and the epiglottis (receptors are placed on taste buds within papilla on tongue)
3) Signals are sent to the thalamus by the facial nerve
From the ventral posterior medial nucleus in thalamus sensation is projected to the gustatory cortex
4)The gustatory cortex processes taste perception
The sensation of taste includes: sweetness, sourness, saltiness, bitterness, and umami
