Answer: All fingers, toes, feet, and palms are covered in small ridges. These are raised portions of the skin, arranged in connected units called dermal, or friction, ridges. They help us with our grip on objects that we touch. When these ridges press against things, they leave a mark, an impression called a fingerprint.

Porque los alimentos se oscurecen?(platanos, palta, manzana, papa, etc) respondan pls✋
inn [45]

Answer:

Una enzima es una sustancia, generalmente una proteína, en la célula de un organismo que acelera las reacciones químicas.

Durante el pardeamiento enzimático, una enzima llamada fenolasa y otro compuesto orgánico que se encuentra en las células de la fruta llamados fenoles pasan por una reacción de oxidación cuando se exponen al oxígeno. La fenolasa regula la reacción, convirtiendo los fenoles en melanina.

Por lo general, las enzimas de la fruta están encerradas en tejido. Las enzimas están metidas en sus células, trabajando para madurar la fruta. Pero cuando esas células se descomponen, ya sea por una causa externa como si alguien muerde o corta la fruta o por causas naturales como el envejecimiento, las enzimas se liberan y entran en contacto con el oxígeno, lo que desencadena la reacción química y hace que la fruta se vuelva marrón.
