Answer: The statement is TRUE.

Explanation:

The thin, yellowish milk which may appear at any time from late pregnancy to few days right after birth is known as Colostrum milk.

During pregnancy, progesterone and oestrogen cause the milk glands to develop in the mother's breast. Immediately after birth, the anterior lobe of the pituitary releases a hormone, prolactin, which stimulates milk production. When the baby suckles at the mother's nipples, the milk flows out.

This first yellowish milk known as colostrum, contains all the essential nutrients that a newly born baby needs. It also provides antibodies and immune cells that protect the infant from disease. The milk is rich in protein and fats than normal milk. It is the first immune system defense they receive after birth. Therefore the above statement about the first thin yellowish milk is TRUE.

The epicenter of an earthquake is the area where the least amount of damage takes place.
Aleks [24]

Answer:

Yes it can be.

Explanation:

Surface damage. The epicenter is directly above the earthquake's hypocenter (also called the focus). In most earthquakes, the epicenter is the point where the greatest damage takes place, but the length of the subsurface fault rupture may indeed be a long one, and damage can be spread on the surface across the entire rupture zone.

What membrane activities requires energy from atp hydrolysis?
NikAS [45]

Answer:

active transport, like Na + ions leaving the cell

Explanation:

The active transport requires an energy expenditure to transport the molecule from one side of the membrane to the other, but the active transport is the only one that can transport molecules against a concentration gradient, just as the diffusion facilitated the active transport is limited by the number of transport proteins present.

Two major categories of active, primary and secondary transport are of interest. The primary active transport uses energy (generally obtained from ATP hydrolysis), at the level of the same membrane protein producing a conformational change that results in the transport of a molecule through the protein.

The best known example is the Na + / K + pump. The Na + / K + pump performs a countertransport ("antyport") transports K + into the cell and Na + outside it, at the same time, spending on the ATP process.

The secondary active transport uses energy to establish a gradient across the cell membrane, and then uses that gradient to transport a molecule of interest against its concentration gradient.
