Answer: The thoracic cavity contains the heart, lungs and many of the main vessels of the circulatory system. It is found anterior to the vertebral cavity.
Explanation:
The thoracic cavity is the second largest hollow space of the body and it is the space limited by the ribs, the vertebral column, and the sternum. It is the upper region of the body starting from the neck and ending where the diaphragm ends. So, it is separated from the abdominal cavity by the diaphragm. It contains 12 ribs, and 7 of them attach directly to the sternum, 3 attach to the sternum via cartilages and 2 do not attach to the sternum at all and are called floating ribs. The cavity contains several organs, such as the lungs, heart, great vessels and esophagus.
The abdominal cavity spaces around the organs are filled with the core muscles that attach to the posterior spine. Besides. the ribs vertically, horizontally and across the abdominal region.
The vertebral cavity is the posterior portion of the dorsal cavity, it contains the spinal cord within the vertebral column, the meninges and the fluid-filled spaces between them. It is formed by the vertebrae through which the spinal cord passes.
<u>The thoracic cavity is anterior to the vertebral cavity, because anterior describes the front or direction toward the front of the body</u>.

Explanation:
We can define thermogenesis as the method of production of lime or temperature that a living body generates, in biology it is studied that this does not occur in all animals, but is seen in so-called warm blood and some plants, there are three types of processes identified in animals:
NEAT: defined as thermogenesis that occurs without the presence of physical activity
DIT: defined as the thermogenesis that occurs with physical activity
EAT: defined as the thermogenesis that occurs with the consumption of food or diet
Thermogenesis under the thermogenin protein found in brown adipose tissue produces a disengagement of protons within the mitochondria, prevents ATP synthesis and is capable of inducing temperature with the flow of protons, it also intervenes by increasing glycolysis, lipogenesis and gluconeogenesis with which its final result in these processes is the production of energy. The effect of the sympathetic nervous system and thyroid hormones that can balance heat production without generating abnormal movements such as tremor is also recognized.
Thus we deduce that:
electron transport allows heat flow without causing tremors
Thermogenin is involved in allowing protons to enter the mitochondria and the ATP production process is carried out.
hydrolysis of fatty acids occurs in the presence of norepinephrine
in brown adipocytes ATP synthase can be avoided
Answer:
Allosteric inhibition can be reversed.
The allosteric inhibitor binds to a site distinct from the active site resulting in decreased affinity of the enzyme for the substrate.
Allosteric inhibition can be irreversible
Continuous cell lines differ from primary cell lines in that <span>continuous cell lines are derived from primary cell lines.</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
The cytoplasm in animal cells is surrounded by a membrane, which delimits the cell and its surroundings. As opposite from the plant cells, animal cells do not have a cell wall.
<em>Osmosis</em><em> is the process in which a solvent diffuses across a semipermeable membrane</em> (like the cell membrane) <em>from the zone with the lower concentration of solutes to the zone with the higher concentration. </em>That means that water, in this case, will diffuse spontaneously across the cell membrane from the place with more water molecules (usually, the exterior of the cell) to the place which has less water molecules, or is more concentrated (in this case, the cytoplasm). This diffusion will continue until an equilibrium is reached.
If we place an animal cell, which does not have a cell wall, into an environment with a low water potential, <u>the water will flow from the exterior to the interior</u>. If the water potential is very low compared to the one of the cytoplasm, the cell can receive too much water and explode. This process is called cytolysis.
