Biology

navik [9.2K]3 years ago

The pancreas is a six-inch-long gland located in your abdomen near your liver and part of the small intestine. It’s nestled right behind and slightly below your stomach and in front of your spine. The head of the pancreas is along the curve of your duodenum, the first part of the small intestine just beyond the stomach.

The pancreas plays a dual role in your bodily functions:

Endocrine system. The pancreas secretes hormones, including the blood sugar-regulating hormones: insulin and glucagon.
Exocrine system. The pancreas also secretes enzymes into your digestive tract through a duct into your duodenum.

Full meanings of NADH+ and FADH​
Valentin [98]

Answer: NADH stands for "nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) + hydrogen (H)." This chemical occurs naturally in the body and plays a role in the chemical process that generates energy.

Explanation: FADH is the reduced form of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD). ... FADH is generated in each round of fatty acid oxidation, and the fatty acyl chain is shortened by two carbon atoms as a result of these reactions; because oxidation is on the beta carbon, this series of reactions is called the beta-oxidation pathway.

Why is a theory called a theory and not a fact?
Black_prince [1.1K]
Many theories can never be proven. 
Here are a few examples:

-- The moon orbits the Earth.
-- Gravity pulls all masses toward each other.
-- The Earth orbits the sun.
-- Everything is made of atoms and molecules.
-- Atoms are made of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
-- Electrons moving through a wire make electric current.
-- The center of the Earth is molten iron and nickel.
-- The source of the sun's energy is nuclear fusion in its core.
-- Almost all galaxies are moving away from us.
-- The universe is expanding.

None of these statements can be proven.  That's why they're not called
Facts or Laws. 

It also tells you that some pretty powerful stuff has been done with concepts
that can't be proven.  If you want to make an idea look foolish, that doesn't
happen when you say "it's only a theory".
