<span>The calculated to surface area for red blood cells by Gorter and Grendel found to be 36u2.
The surface area that would be covered once they spread across the surface of the water is 72u2.
If they spread across the surface area will double. This is because the lipid bilayer with phospholipid the head faces the water on each surface of the membrane.
It clearly shows that there must be more to membranes than lipid bilayer because membranes grew and the surface tension of membranes is much lower than those of pure lipid structures.</span>
Answer:
Considering that homeostasis is restored in the patient, his blood pH range would return to normal levels (7.35-7.45), and his hydrogen ion concentration in the blood would normalize. The effect of normalizing the body by getting rid of excess hydrogen ions is achieved by concentrating these ions into the urine for expulsion, therefore increasing the pH levels of urine.

Explanation:
Acidosis is the condition wherein excessive acid build-up within the body causes the blood pH to become lower than normal (normal pH range 7.35-7.45). This may be due to an excessive loss of bicarbonate in the blood, also known as metabolic acidosis, or due to an impairment in the elimination of carbon dioxide in the blood from poor lung function, also known as respiratory acidosis. The body's natural response to acidosis is to increase the breathing rate to eliminate carbon dioxide in the blood, restoring the natural pH of the body.
In people with diabetes mellitus type I, the lack of insulin causes cells to breakdown fat aside from glucose as an energy source. This process produces ketones as a metabolic by-product for energy but also causes the body to be acidic. This is known as diabetic ketoacidosis.
Answer: Option C.
Population density is the total number of organisms within a fixed area.
Explanation:
Population density is the total number of organisms per unit area. Population density is calculated by dividing the number of organisms by the unit area either in square kilometers, squaremeters, square miles.
Population density =number of organisms ÷ unit of land area.
Answer:
Plasmin
Explanation:
Plasmin is a serine protease also referred to as fibrin digesting enzyme, it is responsible for the dissolving or degradation of blood clot. The process by which plasmin degrades blood clot is called fibrinolysis. Note that plasmin (active) is formed from an inactive enzyme called plasminogen.
