What is good for you when your sick?
Well it dependes on the sickness, but the usual relief is sleeping, drinking fluds, staying away from other sick people. and of course medicene. But if you don't know what it is ask your doctor, the doctor would also be the best person for you to ask this question.
Dodge Neon '01 heard loud pop while driving then horrible smell began Temp gauge went up when AC was on and a loud sound like metal on metal rubbing when initially moving stops after going a bit?
Sounds like a rad... I rescently heard a really loud pop, and my car ALWAYS smokes, because of oil lekaing in the engine bay. Tempertaure changes wouldn't occur from bearings, or cams. So it must be the cooling system. Check your oil, rad fluid, if either has any foreign fluds in it (you'll see the mixture of the fluids on the dipstick). Sounds more like your air conditioner compressor packed it in.
What are the steps involved in breaking down of food?
By enzymes in your body fluds
What types of natural disasters affect Puerto Rico?
Two major threats affect the entire Caribbean. Hurricane -- from Sept 1 through November there is always the threat of hurricanes Earthquakes/Tsunami - Puerto Rico and the entire greater Antilles sit on a very active submarine fault line. There are numerous small tremors on the islands. Most can't be felt. But once in a while you get "the big one". The last "big one" near Puerto Rico was in 1918 off the island's west coast. This 7.5 magnitude quake triggered a 20 foot tsunami that devastated the west coast.
What in the stomach and small intestine break down food into chemicals the body can use?
Pepsin is an Enzyme that breaks down proteins during digestion. It is produced by the walls of the stomach. It requires a strongly acidic environment such as that present in the stomach. It digests large protein molecules into smaller protein molecules (smaller polypeptides) and is therefore a protease - an enzyme that breaks down a protein. In the stomach, chief cells release pepsinogen. This zymogen is activated by hydrochloric acid (HCl), which is released from parietal cells in the stomach lining. The hormone gastrin and the vagus nerve trigger the release of both pepsinogen and HCl from the stomach lining when food is ingested. Hydrochloric acid creates an acidic environment which allows pepsinogen to unfold and cleave itself in an autocatalytic fashion, thereby generating pepsin (the active form). Pepsin will digest up to 20% of ingested carbon bonds by cleaving preferentially after the N-terminal of aromatic amino acids. Pepsin is stored as pepsinogen so it will only be released when needed, and does not digest the body's own proteins in the stomach's lining.
How does human behavior affect the environment?
Pollution in the environment is the primary cause for diseases on earth. Diseases affect humans both physically and mentally which ultimately effects their ethical standards. When ethical standards gets eroded, humanity will be at stake! A well conserved environment provides all good things to humans for their livelyhood in their own habitats and there would not be any conflict on sharing natural resources. When there is no conflict between various communities/countries, behaviour of humans will be at its best for sharing the nature with all living things on earth. On the contrary, if the environment is degraded, it will definitely lead to conflicts between people of various regions of a country or between countries in sharing natural resources on earth. It will be reflected in the behaviour of constituent individual.
What do fish reptiles and amphibians have in common?
External features 1.The body is divided into head,trunk,tail.with tail being the largest portion of the body. 2.The body is covered by scales & even osteoderms in case of crocodiles,this is a evolutionary change to conserve body fluids like the water from evaporating. 3.All reptiles are slender,with elongated body. 4.They shed their skin in complete or bits. 5.Overlapping scales which eventually become hard . 6.Most of the reptiles slither on ground with 4 limbs belly facing towards the ventral side. 7.Most of the reptiles the brood pouch or the egg fertilization region is present in the preanal segment. 8.Eggs are leathery one of the important feature this is to protect eggs from harsh conditions like fluds too. 9.Reptiles are oviviparus but some of the snakes,few lizards are viviparus. Internal features 1.Reptile have partial 3 chambered heart with 2 ventricles 1 atria,but crocodiles have 4 chambered heart like the mammals. 2.All reptiles are uricotelic which means they excreat uric acid unlike mammals which excreat urea & called ureotellic. 3.Excreation of uric acid is to minimise the water loss.
