Answer:

Seen on the explanation.

Explanation:

Glandular tissues are a mixture of both endocrine (ductless, hormones are secreted directly into the blood) and exocrine (have ducts, hormones are secreted into surfaces) glands.

The pancreas and salivary glands are both exocrine glands although the pancreas has an endocrine function via the islets of Langerhans, both aid in the digestion of food.

The pancreas lacks striated ducts and the intralobular duct is similar to the intercalated duct of salivary glands. It often has a collapsed lumens and the cells are cuboidal with little cytoplasmic staining in contrast to acinar cells.

The pancreas can also be distinguished from the parotid gland by the presence of the pancreatic islet (islets of langerharns) which has an endocrine function.

Describe an environmental factor that could influence natural selection and increase genetic diversity. Pick a specific example
ELEN [110]
Populations have a genetic variation among individuals and that is important to the populations ability to survive in different situations that have an affect on the natural selection. There are different factors which can increase or decrease the genetic diversity, and influencing natural selection. These factors can include an environmental factor, one of the major factors, which can cause changes in the genetic variation of a population and influence the natural selection. A famous and important example of the environmental factors affecting natural selection was made during the industrial revolution when many more gray moths made up the moth population. This was so that they could blend in with the soot from factories to avoid predators.

NADH and FADH2 are both electron carriers that donate their electrons to the electron transport chain. The electrons ultimately
maria [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

NADH and FADH2 are both electron carriers of the electron transport chain. NADH gives up its electrons starting from Complex I, which has a higher energy level compared to other complexes. Energy is given off to pump protons across the membrane by the time electrons are transferred to ComplexIII. More electrons are pumped across the membrane as electrons move to Complex IV. Because NADH commenced giving up its electrons from Complex I (higher energy level complex), more protons are pumped across the membrane gradient, which enables ATP synthase with more power to produce 3ATP molecules per NADH molecule.

On the other hand, 2 molecules of ATP are generated by FADH2 because it starts by giving up its electrons to ComplexII. It missed a chance to pump protons across the membrane when it passed Complex I. By the time the electrons reach Complex IV, less protons have been pumped. The lesser the protons to power ATP synthase, the lesser the ATP molecules produced.

During each heartbeat, about 80 g of blood is pumped into the aorta in approximately 0.2 s. during this time, the blood is accel
aivan3 [116]
I assume that in this item, we are asked to solve for the force exerted during the heartbeat. Force is the product of the mass and acceleration. To solve for the acceleration in this item, we divide the velocity by time.
                                   a = 1 m/s /  0.2 s = 5 m/s²
Then, we multiply this by the mass (in kg)
                                  F = (80 g / 1000 g/kg) x (5 m/s²)
                                      = 0.4 kg m/s² = 0.4 J
Therefore, every hearbeat will take 0.4 J of force.
