Answer:

food molecules become digested once there is a concentration gradient to drive diffusion, the nutrients need a path across the membrane. fats and fat soluble nutrients can move directly across the lipid membrane. water, gasses ane other very small molecules can diffuse through the pores of the cell.

How can microalgae be used to create biodiesel

mestny [16]

The oil extracted through these methods is referred to as "green crude" and it's not ready to be used as fuel until it undergoes another process called transesterification. This step adds more substances to the mix, including alcohol and a chemical catalyst that causes the alcohol to react with the oil. This reaction creates a mix of biodiesel and glycerol. The final step in processing separates the glycerol from the mixture and leaves a biodiesel that's ready to be used as fuel. Maybe one day it really will be easy being green.

People with diseases that result in the malabsorption of which nutrient are at risk for a vitamin d deficiency?

grigory [225]

Inadequate dietary vitamin D or its deficiency leads to malabsorption of calcium. Nutritional disorder leads to the rare disease rickets, which causes bones to become soft and bend in children. In adults, vitamin D deficiency leads to osteomalacia, which causes weak bones, bone pain and muscle weakness.

The body needs vitamin D to properly absorb calcium and phosphorus from the diet. However, keeping the right quantities of calcium and phosphorus in bones is challenging when vitamin D levels are low.

The two sources of vitamin D are-

Natural sunlight
Foods such as fish oil, Egg yolk and fatty fishes like salmon and mackerel

There are other disease conditions which lead to poor absorption of vitamin D-

Inflammatory bowel disease
Celiac diseases
Kidney problems

Explanation:

All observations and information that scientists perceive and record are called data.
A dependent variable, also known as response variable, defines the treatment/variable that changes in response to the independent variable.
According to the second postulate of the Cell Theory, the cell is the basic structural and functional unit of life.
Cells that perform similar functions are grouped together to form tissues.
An experiment is a controlled setting/test that investigates (proves or disproves) a scientist's hypotheses.
One of the major properties of life is to harvest and convert energy to drive basic cellular processes.
Independent or test variable does not depend on any other factors. It is itself changed to determine its effect on the response variable.The amount of coke is the independent variable.
Homeostasis is defined as an organism's ability to regulate its internal environment in response to fluctuations in the external environment.
A community is a group of populations (different species) inhabiting one place at one time.
In the scientific method, a good theory generates further hypotheses that can be tested.
Multicellular organisms are composed of more than one cells.
Biology is the scientific study of life. <em>Bio</em> means life and <em>logos</em> means study, thought or reasoning.
An ecosystem is an ecological structure in which both biotic and abiotic factors interact with each other.
According to the second postulate of the Cell Theory, the cell is the basic structural and functional unit of life.
Eukaryotes constitute one entire domain of the tree of life. They are distributed in 4 major kingdoms of life.
A dependent variable, also known as response variable, defines the treatment/variable that changes in response to the independent variable.
Homeostasis is defined as an organism's ability to respond and regulate its internal environment in response to fluctuations in the external environment.
Homeostasis is defined as an organism's ability to respond and regulate its internal environment in response to fluctuations in the external environment.
The experimental and control groups differ in the independent variable as only the experimental group receives the variable or treatment.
Quantitative data is quantifiable, numerical data in which the effects of the independent variable on the response variable can be compared through mathematical and statistical tools.
A good theory is universal,broad in scope and substantiated by a large body of evidence.
A good theory is universal,broad in scope and substantiated by a large body of evidence.
A jungle is a group of a single species of dense vegetation.
An organism is an individual living being composed of cells, tissues, organs and organ systems.
Fungi, being saprophytic in nature are the principal decomposers on Earth.
Independent or test variable does not depend on any other factors. It is itself changed to determine its effect on the response variable.
A population is a single species of organisms inhabiting a single area at a time.
Organisms of the domain Archaea are known to be extremophiles i.e. organisms that can survive and thrive in harsh environmental conditions.
A hypothesis is a potential explanation for observable phenomena.
The three domains of life: Eukarya (Eukaryotes), Archaea and Bacteria (Prokaryotes).
The three domains of life: Eukarya (Eukaryotes), Archaea and Bacteria (Prokaryotes).
A cell is made up of different organelles performing diverse functions for the cell.
The properties of life include: order, sensitivity or response to the environment, reproduction, growth and development, regulation, homeostasis, and energy processing.
Each level of the hierarchy of life entails the addition of new properties, complexity and more complex functions.
One of the major properties of life is to harvest and convert energy to drive basic cellular processes.
A well tested and substantiated hypothesis leads to the development of a theory that can further be subjected to experimentation.
An ecosystem is an ecological structure in which both biotic and abiotic factors interact with each other.
Independent or test variable does not depend on any other factors. It is itself changed to determine its effect on the response variable.

Skeletal muscle cells exhibit a phenomenon known as recruitment, in which the number of muscle cells recruited to contract is pr

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

No, cardiac muscle tissue does not exhibit recruitment.

Explanation:

The cardiac muscle tissue does not recruit cells to contract. The reason is that the cardiac muscle contracts all its cells at once and with the same force. It does not have to recruit other cells since it does not have to lift objects of different weights. The heart's contraction aims to pump blood and to do it rhythmically. The heart has a natural peacemaker, the sinoatrial node. The Sinoatrial node transmits an electrical impulse to all the heart to contract it all at the same time and continuously. For these reasons, the cardiac muscle does not need recruitment.
