In medical sciences, the movement of solid particles (solute) from an area of greater to lesser concentration is called by DIFFUSION.
A random passage of particles always occurs from a place of higher concentration to another of lower concentration. This happens until the distribution of the particles is uniform. From the moment the equilibrium is reached, as exchanges of substances between two media become proportional.
The passage of substances through cell membranes involves several mechanisms, among which we can mention:
✴ Passive transport (no loss of energy)
➡ Osmosis;
➡ Simple diffusion;
➡ Facilitated diffusion.
✴ Active transport (with loss of energy)
➡ Sodium and potassium pump
✴ Endocytosis and exocytosis
➡ Pinocytosis
➡ Phagocytosis

Heres a few examples:
-washing your hands
-use of protective equipment like, gloves, masks, and eyeglasses.

Answer:
⇒ In the Liver
⇒ Ketone bodies are produced by the liver and used peripherally as an energy source when glucose is not readily available. The two main ketone bodies are acetoacetate (AcAc) and 3-beta-hydroxybutyrate (3HB), while acetone is the third, and least abundant, ketone body.
⇒ Ketones and ketoacids are alternative fuels for the body that are made when glucose is in short supply. They are made in the liver from the breakdown of fats. Ketones are formed when there is not enough sugar or glucose to supply the body's fuel needs. This occurs overnight, and during dieting or fasting.
Answer:
SSD with predominantly somatic complaints
Explanation:
Somatic symptom disorder (SSD) is what when a person feels anxiety about physical symptoms and their thoughts and feelings are intense towards these symptoms. These are normally not related to any medical cause and are characterized by persistent physical complaints which are associated with thoughts, feelings and behaviors related to symptoms.
