The papillary layer of the dermis is composed of loosely packed connective tissue with numerous peg-like projections that provid

e a great deal of surface area connecting the dermis to the epidermis
Which of the statements below do not represent benefits provided by the papillary layer's anatomy?
A) The spaces in the connective tissue allow many small blood vessels to deliver nutrients and pickup waste diffusing from the superficial epidermal layers.
B) The looseness allows for easy separation of the dead cell layer of epidermis to be shed.
C) The high surface area allows for a stronger connection of dermis to epidermis.
D) The looseness allows for phagocytes to roam through the tissue and search for infection.

Answer:

The correct answer is option B) "The looseness allows for easy separation of the dead cell layer of epidermis to be shed".

Explanation:

The looseness of the surface are connecting the dermis to the epidermis provides several benefits, however allowing for easy separation of the dead cell layer of epidermis to be shed is not one of them. The dead cell layer of epidermis is located a the stratum corneum, which is the most superficial layer of the skin. The area that connects the dermis to the epidermis is deeper at the skin's anatomy, and is not related with the stratum corneum shedding.

Which of the following is true about mangroves?
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

E. Mangroves have only one type of root system

Explanation:

Mangrove species are those species of plants found in a saline environment. The soil they are found is usually shallow and swampy (water-logged). They possess characteristics feature that helps them adapt and survie in their habitat.

One of those features is the possession of PNEUMATOPHORES OR BREATHING ROOTS, which is a kind of root system that extends out so that the pores on them can allow the intake of gases directly from the atmosphere.

Which of the following best explains how the light reactions of photosynthesis generate ATP?
frutty [35]

Answer:

B. A proton gradient drives the formation of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate via ATP synthase.

Explanation:

Light reaction of photosynthesis includes the splitting of water in the presence of sunlight and electron transfer from PSII to PSI via an electron transport system. During the transfer of electron through cytochrome of the electron transport system, the proton concentration gradient is generated across thylakoids. The proton concentration gradient is harvested to drive ADP phosphorylation by the catalytic site of ATP synthase accompanied by downhill movement protons through its proton channels.

Messenger RNA carries a(n) ___________ of the DNA’s instructions out of the nucleus to the ___________.
Nitella [24]


messenger RNA  (mRNA) carries a transcript (copy) of the DNA's instructions out of the nucleus  to the cytoplasm where it attaches to a ribosome.

transfer RNA (tRNA) begins to read (translate) the information on the attached mRNA and corresponding to this information, fetches the appropriate amino acids from the pool of free amino acids in the cytoplasm, and brings them to the ribosome where they are linked into a chain or polymer forming the primary structure of the desired protein.

Why does it make metabolic sense for the same hormone signal to stimulate glycogenolysis and inhibit glycolysis in the liver whi
Debora [2.8K]

This is because if the two  metabolic processes were to be  active at at the same time;  

Two molecules of<u> ATPs</u> and <u>Guanosine triphophate </u>(sometimes used for  energy transport) <u>will be expended per each cycle, with no  compensatory rate  of replacements present  at the moment in the cell,this  affects cell metabolism for energy availability</u>

<u>2</u> Both<u> Glycolysis and Gluconeogensis </u>are both<u> exergonic processes  in cells. </u> The  heat energy liberated from these Calorinogenic effects  will be higher than what the natural thermodynamic barrier of cells can withstand. Consequently;  the heat will raise temperature of the cells affecting metabolic activities of hormones and enzymes which are (proteins) ,and easily denature by high temperatures.    

However, in muscles cells,gluconeogeneis is a compensasory process of Glycolysis. This because during active exercise with high metabolic demand in muscles cells, glucose is rapidly metabolise  to to pyruvate,(but not at the rate that the Citric acid  cycle can  metabolise) for Lactic acid production by muscles cells for energy production.  Pyruvate must be broken down rapidly so that NAD+ will be available for  Glycolysis to continue. Therefore  to sustain Glycolysis at this rate  continuous supply of glucose is supplied  from Gluconeogenesis.
