If your hymen is broken or just not there will your period be shorter because there is no membrane there to lengthen the time of blood flow?

By the tiniest bit, yes. The blood flow is based on hormones in your body - since menstruation is a slow process (you don't lose it all at once) the hymen doesn't slow down the flow. Were it to be a rapid process (8 hours say) then it definitely would impact flow rate: a constriction on a hose is far more effective against high rate of flow, and almost zero effect on very slow rate of flow. IF it added any time you would see a slow down of minutes not hours: any "speed up" would be at most minutes.

Where is the water molecule broken down?
The Thylakoid Membrane
What keeps the yolk intact when broken easily?
a membrane
What must starch be broken down into in order to be absorbed?
Because of its size, starch can not pass through the cell membrane. So, it must be broken down to its monomer form glucose with enzyme amylase.
What is it when ions are in a low concentration outside a cell and they slowly cross the membrane into the cell?
the answer is the membrane are probably broken down
Besides the nucleus what else is broken down during prophase?
Nuclear membrane and nucleolus
How long is the song boulevard of broken dreams?
4:21 in the regular versionRadio edits have it shorter
Why do nutrients need to be broken down before they can be absorbed by the human body?
So that it can be small enough to pass through a cell's membrane.
How does alcohol effect the cell membrane of onions?
The cell membrane is made up of a phospolipid bilayer, and these phospholipids are soluble in ethanol. Therefore, the membrane will be broken down (?). This increases the permeability of the cell membrane.
Which blood vessels are most likely to be broken with pericarditis?
The mucus membrane of the eyes, the back, the chest, fingers, and toes.
How do you identify dead cells?
Dead cells have no organism to them. The nucleus and other organelles are broken looking and the cell membrane is not complete.
What are membranes that only allow certain molecules to pass through them and keep others out?
This is because the cell membrane is a partially permeable membrane, hence allowing the smaller molecules to enter it and larger molecules to be out. For example, protein is too large to enter the cell. So, it is broken down by the enzymes in our stomach into amino acids, which are small enough to enter the holes into the membrane. A way to remember this is to remember that oversized people cant enter the house because the door is too small, hence keeping him/her away.
Does breaking monomer cause polymers?
No. Monomers are the building blocks of Polymers. When a Polymer is broken (by Hydrolysis) you get monomers or a monomer and a shorter ploymer.
