Describe how an amino acid molecule passes from the lumen of the ileum to the liver​

Biology
1 answer:
Stels [109]2 years ago

Answer: Amino acids are absorbed via a Sodium cotransporter, in a similar mechanism to the monosaccharides.

Explanation: Amino acids are absorbed via a Sodium cotransporter, in a similar mechanism to the monosaccharides. They are then transported across the alabaster membrane via facilitated diffusion. Di and tripeptides are absorbed via separate H+ dependent cotransporters and once inside the cell are hydrolyzed to amino acids.

Which condition occurs in the presence of cellular damage? Cells shrink. ATP production increases. Osmotic pressure decreases. S
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Sodium and water move into the cell

Explanation:

Sodium and water move into the cell. This is because

Cellular damage result in failure of the Na+/k+ pump, allowing movement of sodium ions into the cell. This concentration of sodium pulls water in, resulting in hydropic swelling. Cellular damage results in the cell's inability to perform normal metabolic functions because APT decreases and Osmotic finally pressure increases.

If you were able to walk into an opening cut into the center of a large redwood tree, when you exit from the middle of the trunk
strojnjashka [21]
If you were to cross a large redwood tree, like for an example a sequoia, from the middle of the trunk you would first cross the annual rings, indicators of the trunk growth over the years, then after that you would cross the phloem, the ''piping'' of the tree responsible for the transport of water throughout the tree and in the end you would cross the tree's bark, the protective layer on surface of the trunk.

If natural selection has no foresight, how can it explain features that seem to prepare organisms for future events? for example
Nezavi [6.7K]

The genes in a population give forth the genetic variability across a population (genotypes). In addition, occasional mutations of these genes in a population increase this genetic variability. Hovever, natural selection only favours reproduction of individuals with genes that are favourable in the environment/habitat. Therefore, natural selection has no foresight but is rather pegged on being an ‘opportunistic’ process.
