Why do you think it is so difficult for some people to accept the idea of continental drift?

Biology

valina [46]3 years ago
5 0
People tend not to believe/accept things they can't see proof of with their own eyes or things that lack scientific evidence.

Continental drift is something that spans hundreds of thousands of years. People don't live that long to be able to see the position of the continents and land changing over time. Also when Wegener proposed this theory, he couldn't explain how continental drift occurred, so lacking scientific evidence, many people did not believe him.<span />

Select all of the true statements regarding non‑shivering thermogenesis.
lora16 [44]

Answer:

a, b, d y e

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
