Biology

4 0

Answer:

This question is in my stored notes read below

Explanation:

Pancreas is an exocrine gland as it has a duct to store pancreatic juice secreted by the pancreas and use it whenever required. It is considered as a endocrine gland as it does not have a duct to store the hormones insulin and glucagon which are directly supplied to the blood stream.

What is the equation used to measure liquid pressure?​
klasskru [66]

Set up the equation.

Since gravity and liquid densities are fixed (for the most part), the height of the liquid is the largest variable in the equation. The equation reads as Pfluid = ρgh, where ρ is the density of the liquid, g is the acceleration of gravity, and h is the height of the liquid (or depth of the fluid)

In an investigation, plant cells are placed in water that has been tinted blue. The investigators observe the color of the cells
larisa [96]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

When plant cells take in water, the vacuole swells. A swollen vacuole indicates the plant cell has all the water it needs. This suggests that the plant is taking in water and is maintaining optimum conditions. This is an example of homeostasis.

If the cells burst apart, as in A and E, this would suggest the cell is not properly maintaining homeostasis, as the cell bursting suggests something has gone badly wrong. This suggests the cell has taken in too much water; the cell has not been able to maintain homeostasis and regulate water uptake to prevent this from happening.

In the reverse case, where the cells shrink apart (as in B), the cell would also not be properly maintaining homeostasis by failing to bring enough water into the cell to maintain a turgid state. This is also damaging for the cells.

Finally, D and E can also not be correct, because water can cross the cell membrane, and does not need to be pumped in or sent out by endocytosis.

Which ecosystem has the greatest biodiversity?
Paha777 [63]

"Marsh" ecosystem has the "greatest biodiversity".

Option: C

<u>Explanation</u>:

Marsh or Wetland ecosystem is highlighted as “biological super systems” as it is responsible to manufacture giant volume of meal that favors large amount of biodiversity, which is rich as rain forests and local reefs. The combination of important nutrients, shallow water and large primary productivity is basic source for Earth's food web. For example such food web is supported by birds, shellfish, fish, amphibians and insects. This ecosystem helps filtration of pollutants and soil runoff from the upstream sources which in return support river, ocean and bays in cleaning downstream.

Please help I will give BRAINLIEST face the earth
Oxana [17]

Answer:

It is often assumed that the moon is a perfect sphere, which it is not. The side of the moon facing earth is more dense than the side facing away. Therefore, it takes energy for the moon to rotate its earth-facing side away from the earth. Such energy is not currently available, so the same side always faces earth, caught in earth’s gravity.

Explanation:

Hope this helps you a lot my boo!

5.Write observation and conclusion of each of the following activities​
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Water puts pressure depends on their amount.

Explanation:

On the left side, there is less quantity of water in the tube that put less pressure on the bag present at the bottom and the bag swells slightly while on the other hand, on the right side, there is more amount of water in the tube that puts large pressure on the bag located at the bottom and as a result it swells higher than the other bag so we can conclude that more water puts more pressure and less water puts less pressure.
