Explain how the release of sodium and chlorine would lead to a loss of water in the intestines
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Please find the explanation below

Explanation:

Sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl) are two electrolytes that play important role in the absorption of water and nutrients in the small intestine. However, as mentioned in the question, the release of sodium and chlorine would lead to a loss of water in the intestines. This is because of the OSMOTIC phenomenon.

Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a region of high concentration of water/low concentration of solute to a region of low concentration of water/high concentration of solute via a semipermeable membrane. In this case, the Na+ and Cl- ions serve as the solutes, which when released out of the intestine causes the solution in the intestines to be HYPOTONIC compared to the intestinal environment. This causes an OSMOTIC GRADIENT.

This osmotic gradient i.e. difference in concentration provokes osmotic flow of water from the intestines, which has a low solute/high water concentration, to the outside of the intestines, which has a high solute/low water concentration. Hence, water is lost from the intestine because the solute concentration becomes low when sodium and chlorine ions are released.

If a chemical reaction is reversed, what happens to the enthalpy of the reaction?
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:   C. The sign of the enthalpy of the reaction reverses.

Explanation: Enthalpy of a reaction is the net heat absorbed or released  during a chemical reaction.It is represented by \Delta H. It is negative for exothermic reactions in which heat is released and is positive for endothermic reactions in which heat is absorbed.

When a chemical reaction is reversed the heat of the reaction changes its sign.

CaCO_3\rightarrow CaO+CO_2   \Delta H=+ve

The decomposition of calcium carbonate is an endothermic reaction as heat is required to break the bonds and thus energy is absorbed.

CaO+CO_2\rightarrow CaCO_3    \Delta H=-ve

When the reaction is reversed, the reaction becomes exothermic as now bonds are getting formed and energy is released.

What is formed by organized groups of cells with similar structures and a common purpose?
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Cells with similar structures and a common purpose that are organized form a tissue (option D).

Explanation:

Biological tissues are structures originated by the grouping of differentiated cells, which are organized and distributed in such a way that they can fulfill a function in a coordinated way. A characteristic of tissues is that all the cells that constitute them have the same embryonic origin.

An example of a tissue is nervous tissue, formed by neurons, specialized cells that when united form it and fulfill the same function.

The functions of cells are mainly multiplication, development and differentiation, in addition to their ability to group together to form tissues.

The other options are not correct because:

    <em>A. </em><u><em>Organs</em></u><em> are formed from differentiated tissue.</em>

<em>     B and C. </em><em><u>Digestion and circulation</u></em><em> are functions that depend on the organs of the digestive and circulatory systems, respectively.</em>
