What is rate of absorption?
The rate of absorption refers to how quickly a substance is taken in by a surface or a medium. It is typically expressed as the amount of substance absorbed per unit of time. The rate of absorption can depend on factors such as surface area, concentration gradient, and permeability of the material.
What is it called when no more liquid can be absorbed?
It is called saturation when no more liquid can be absorbed by a substance, such as a sponge or soil. At this point, the substance is holding as much liquid as it can without any additional absorption.
What is the difference between buccal and sublingual absorption?
Buccal absorption occurs when medication is absorbed through the tissues of the cheek, while sublingual absorption occurs when medication is absorbed under the tongue. Sublingual absorption typically results in faster drug delivery into the bloodstream compared to buccal absorption.
Differentiate absorption method from colorimetric method?
Absorption method measures the amount of light absorbed by a sample at a specific wavelength, and is used to quantify the concentration of a substance. Colorimetric method utilizes color changes to detect the presence or concentration of a substance, often involving a chemical reaction that produces a color change.
What is meant by the absorption spectrum of a pigment?
The absorption spectrum of a pigment refers to the range of wavelengths of light that the pigment can absorb. It is typically represented graphically with absorption peaks indicating which wavelengths of light are absorbed most strongly by the pigment. The absorption spectrum is important in understanding the color of the pigment because the color we see is determined by the wavelengths of light that are not absorbed but reflected or transmitted.
Calories absorbed in your mouth?
Calories are not typically absorbed in the mouth. Most if not all calories of a particular substance are absorbed in the stomach.
What is an absorption coefficient?
An absorption coefficient is a measure of the absorption of electromagnetic radiation as it passes through a specific substance - calculated as the fraction of incident radiation absorbed by unit mass or unit thickness.
What is the term when the nutrients are absorbed into your small intestine?
Absorption!
What is absorption coefficients?
Absorption coefficients measure how well a material absorbs energy (such as light, sound, or radiation) at a given frequency. Higher absorption coefficients indicate stronger absorption of the energy by the material. They are commonly used in various scientific fields to understand the interactions between materials and energy.
What is done in large intestine?
the absorption of water from absorbed food particles
Where is the food is absorbed?
Absorption of digested foodstuffs occurs in the small intestine.
What is an absorption dynamometer?
An absorption dynamometer is an instrument used to measure force, by measuring the energy absorbed via friction or electrical resistance.
Alcohol is absorbed in the bloodstream with minutes How does a full stomach affect absorption rates?
A full stomach reduces the rate of alcohol absorption.
When a poisoned cells mitochondria inhibits the absorption of glucose and galactose but not that of fructose what processes are the sugars absorbed?
protein absorption through ketoacidosis
What is heat absorption?
As Heat reaches an object it can be absorbed in the same manner as a sponge
Why absorption rate of galactose is more than glucose?
it is absorbed by active transport
Is there net absorption of energy when more energy is absorbed than released?
yes
