The patient would have to keep the affected area clean in order to prevent infection.

Replace bandages to aid in keeping bacteria out of affected area.

  • If a person has damaged the epidermal layer of skin then the damaged layer must be cleaned as soon as possible to prevent the epidermal skin from further infection.
  • Antibiotic cream must be applied on the wound to continue the process of wound healing as infection can slow down the process of healing.
  • The cut area must be covered with bandage to prevent from action of harmful micoorganisms.

Rosa eats a peanut butter sandwich for lunch. Peanut butter contains a lot of protein, and bread is mostly starch. Rosa plans to
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

<em><u>What does she need from the food she ate and the air she breathes so that she can go on her run? </u></em>

A. Rosa needs carbohydrates rich food (bread) to carry out her jogging activity. Protein-rich food before exercise is not recommended unless she is on a weight loss program (diet plan).

B. Rosa needs oxygen to perform aerobic respiration, which is required for maximum release of energy (36 molecules per reaction run). Anaerobic reactions yield less energy (2 molecules of ATP per reaction run) and are not recommended.

<em><u>How do Rosa's body systems work together to get the molecules she needs into her cells?</u></em>

Rosa's body cells need carbohydrates (glucose) and oxygen to perform aerobic respiration for the release of maximum energy. The glucose and oxygen molecules are provided to the cells via diffusion into the bloodstream. During exercise/jogging, complex molecules of carbohydrates such as starch (present in bread) are broken down into simple molecules (glucose) which are diffused into the blood. Likewise, a high amount of oxygen is provided to the body's cells via diffusion in blood, which is carried out by the faster movement of lungs and heart. The combined action results in the supply of both types of molecules to enter the cell where mitochondria use these substrates to produce energy molecules (ATPs).

<em><u>How do hair cells use these molecules to release energy for her body to run?</u></em>

The substrates (glucose and oxygen) enters the bloodstream and then taken up to the cell. Then they are provided to the mitochondria for the release of energy in the form of ATP. This is why mitochondria are known as the powerhouse of the cells. Within the cell, energy is released in a three-step process, i.e. glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. Here glucose reacts with oxygen. In the end, aerobic respiration per reaction run produces 36 molecules of ATP which are sufficient to meet intensive energy needs. During excrcise, the supply of oxygen and glucose is also faster due to faster lungs and heart actions.

PS: Anaerobic respiration cannot meet energy demands faster because the reaction produces only 2 ATP molecules per reaction run.

Euglena is microbial eukaryote that has chloroplasts and can thus perform phtosynthesis. When deprived of light and treated with
Advocard [28]

Answer:  

Euglena have diversed nutritional requirements. They are autotrophic when kept in light and heterotrophic when deprived of light.

The Euglena contains chloroplast in it to perform photosynthesis in the presence of light.

When the Euglena is kept in the dark it starts deriving energy from the organic matter around it and shows heterotrophic mode of nutrition.

When light will be provided to Euglena it will start resynthesizes its photosynthetic pigment and it will start perform photosynthesis.

Which of the following is changed in a reaction by the action of an enzyme?
andrey2020 [161]
Well during an enzyme catalyzed reaction the enzyme bonds with a specific substrate at the active site. This is called an enzyme-substrate complex. The substrate is converted into a specific product, but the enzyme remains unchanged. Enzymes accelerate reactions by factors of at least a million.Enzymes are not used up in a chemical reaction. Usually, the enzyme will "reset" and be ready to use in another reaction. This is due to the fact that enzymes are proteins, and their shape is what they use in a chemical reaction. Initially, the enzyme has a particular shape. Something happens to the enzyme (usually a shape change, called a conformation change, brought on by the presence of two or more chemical reactants), and the enzyme catalyzes the reaction. After the reaction is catalyzed, the product is released, and the enzyme can "relax." This means it goes back to its normal shape, ready to do it all over again
