olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

  1. Respiratory system
  2. Nervous system
  3. Circulatory system
  4. Integumentary system
  5. Endocrine system

Explanation:

During excessive hard work or sports, the respiratory system acts to provide sufficient oxygen for energy supply (ATP) - a process takes place in mitochondria. At the very beginning, the respiratory system is active. If the person doesn't intake sufficient water, he will feel tired because of heavy breathing that increases body temperature and affects metabolic reactions. A supply of water would help decrease the respiration need and so support other systems.

The nervous system (hypothalamus) regulates the body temperature which is necessary for metabolic reactions taking place within the body, i.e. homeostasis. During and after exercise, the water intake was not sufficient, this means that the hypothalamus would work to maintain the temperature as well as other metabolic mechanisms. In the case of less water intake, the nervous system would be in stress.

The circulatory system acts to transport blood and oxygen to all parts of the body. During sports activities, the oxygen supply would be high to maintain energy supply. This takes place with the combined action of the circulatory system and respiratory system. For optimal functioning, the circulatory system needs fluids (water) intake because sufficient water is already lost during sports.

The integumentary system is the system that directly protects the body from damages including dehydration. Therefore, in this case, it will be highly active.

The endocrine system consists of glands that produce hormones to control body metabolism. The body metabolism, as mentioned before, is driven through water availability. The reduced water in the body would also put the endocrine system under pressure.

Are viruses living organisms
viva [34]

Answer:

No. Viruses are not living organisms.

Explanation:

Viruses are not living things. Viruses are complicated assemblies of molecules, including proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates, but on their own they can do nothing until they enter a living cell. Without cells, viruses would not be able to multiply. Therefore, viruses are not living things.

Una solución de 0.204 M de NaOH seutiliza para neutralizar 50 mL de una solución de H3PO4. Si se necesitaron 16.4 mL de la soluc
vfiekz [6]

Answer: 0.05 M

Explanation:

Para responder esta pregunta, hay que tener en cuenta la Ley de Conservación de la Masa. <u>La misma indica que en una reacción química en un sistema cerrado, la masa total de las moléculas que participan permanece constante.</u> Esto significa que la masa utilizada en los reactivos es la misma que la masa de los productos generados.

En este problema, se cuenta con una solución de NaOH (hidróxido de sodio) tiene una molaridad de 0.204 (siendo la molaridad el número de moles por litro de solución) y se utilizan 16.4 mL de dicha solución para agregarla a 50 mL de una solución de H3PO4 (ácido fosfórico).

Entonces, ya que la masa de ambas soluciones no se pierde, podemos utilizar la ecuación de la Ley de Conservación de la Masa:

Concentración inicial x Volumen inicial = Concentración final x Volumen final.

Concentración inicial: 0.204 M

Volumen inicial: 16.4 mL

Concentración final: ?

Volumen final: 50 mL + 16.4 mL = 66.4 mL

Reemplazamos los valores en la ecuación:

0.204 M x 16.4 mL = Concentración final x 66.4 mL

La molaridad de la solución de H3PO4 es de 0.05 M.
