Conduction is the transfer of heat between substances with different temperatures. Heat moves from the warmer to the cooler subs

EastWind [94]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Conduction is a heat transfer method. The heat passes by direct contact between two objects. The heat will go from the object with the higher temperature to the one with the lowest one. We call this temperature gradient. If we analyze the molecular aspect of conduction, we can see that the molecules with higher temperatures have more energy so, they move more. These molecules will collide with the molecules of the other object transferring their energy. As a result, heat passes from the hottest object to the cooler one till the two substances are at the same temperature, there is thermal equilibrium.

Which would not be found in pancreatic juice secreted into the duodenum?
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

The answer is insulin.

Explanation:

Pancreatic juice is an enzyme containing secretion produced by the pancreas into the small intestine. Enzymes in the pancreas help in digesting proteins, carbohydrates and fats. The constituent enzymes are as follows:

  1. Trypsinogen and Chymotrypsinogen: Precursors of the proteases, trypsin and chymotrypsin that digest proteins. They are released as precursors to protect the intestinal lining. Enterokinase, an enzyme secreted by small intestine's epithelial cells, activates these precursor.
  2. Lipase: Enzyme that digests lipids by hydrolysing triglycerides into 2-monoglyceride and two free fatty acids.
  3. Amylase that helps in digesting any left over carbohydrates and complex starch.

Insulin:

Insulin can never be part of pancreatic juice because it is a hormone, not an enzyme. Hormones are chemical messengers secreted only in blood. Insulin is a hormone secreted by the pancreas to lower blood glucose levels by binding to insulin receptors on cells and stimulating the intake of glucose through glucose transport channels (GLUTs) in the cell membrane.

Zinaida [17]
There are choices for this question namely:

a. What is your name and where do you live?
b. How much poison did you swallow?
c. How long have you been feeling this way?
<span>d. What have you recently had to eat or drink?
</span>
The correct answer is "what have you recently had to eat or drink". This will confirm the suspicion by first ruling out potential reactive foods or drinks that may have caused a similar reaction (i.e. allergic reactions). If that is ruled out, then the probing about the history of intake of poison will come next in the interview.

How do protons contribute towards making ATP?...
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer: Protons contribute towards making ATP by producing proton-motive force that provides energy for ATP synthesis.

Explanation: In the respiratory chain, the transfer of electrons from one complex to another is accompanied by pumping of protons out of the matrix. This creates a difference in proton concentration and separation of charge across the mitochondrial inner membrane. The electrochemical energy inherent in this difference in proton concentration called proton-motive force is used to drive ATP synthesis as protons flow back passively into the matrix through a proton pore.
