What role does the skeletal system play in maintaining homeostasis in the body?

Biology

Yuri [45]3 years ago

When mineral levels in the blood are too high, bones absorb some of the minerals and store them as mineral salts, which is why bones are so hard. When blood levels of minerals are too low, bones release some of the minerals back into the blood, thus restoring homeostasis

Why is an array, or group, of hydrophones more useful than a single hydrophones?
anzhelika [568]

A hydrophone array is made up of a number of hydrophones placed in known locations. These hydrophones maybe placed in a line on the seafloor, moored in a vertical line in the water column, or towed in a horizontal line behind a boat or ship, for example. Sound arriving at the array from a distant source, such as a submarine, will reach each hydrophone at slightly different times, depending on the direction from which the sound is coming. This time difference is known as the time-of-arrival-difference and can be turned into a direction. Using this information from all the hydrophones in the array, the direction from which the sound is coming can be pinpointed.


Even a simple array consisting of only two hydrophones can give the approximate direction from which a sound is coming. People do this all the time in air with a “receiving array” that consists of two ears. Sound arriving from a source, such as a person speaking, will reach each ear at slightly different times, depending on the direction from which the sound is coming, making it possible for the listener to tell the direction to the speaker.

Plants that carry out crassulacean acid metabolism (cam) differ from c4 plants in that they do not contain rubisco. they do not
Serggg [28]

Plants that use crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) photosynthesis repair CO2 at night, when their stomata are open. CAM plants stock the CO2 typically in the method of malic acid via carboxylation of phosphoenolpyruvate to oxaloacetate, which is then concentrated to malate. Decarboxylation of malate during the day discharges CO2 inside the leaves, therefore permitting carbon fixation to 3-phosphoglycerate by RuBisCO.

Why do large organisms require a transport system?​
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Larger animals have a lower surface area to volume ratio. This means they need transport systems like our circulatory system and exchange surfaces like our lungs or fish gills. In single-celled organisms such as protists, and small multicellular organisms, essential molecules will move to where they're needed by diffusion.
