Answer:
3. D. The red blood cell will shrink from losing water molecules
59. C. Glucose + Oxygen —> Carbon dioxide + Water
Explanation:
The red blood cell has a lower salt concentration than the liquid which means that it has a higher water concentration than the liquid.
By the process of osmosis, water will flow from the red blood cell to the liquid which would lead to the red blood cell shrinking in size.
Cellular respiration is used to create energy for cells. It works by burning glucose in the presence of oxygen. The result is an outburst of energy and CO2 as well as water.
Answer:
Incomplete Dominance
Explanation:
In terms of the shape of the blood cell shape, sickle cell disease has an incomplete dominance.
Answer:
Reduced reabsorption of salts and nutrients from the proximal tubule.
Explanation:
The proximal convoluted tubules are the site for reabsorption of the largest amount of solute and water from the filtered fluid. It reabsorbs 65% of water, electrolytes such as Na+ and K+, almost 100% of the filtered glucose and amino acids and other electrolytes such as Ca2+, Mg2+, etc.
The simple cuboidal epithelial cells of the proximal convoluted tubule have a prominent brush border of microvilli on their apical surface. These microvilli serve to increase the surface area for reabsorption and secretion. Destruction of these microvilli would reduce the reabsorption of the above-mentioned salts and nutrients from proximal convoluted tubules.
