What is moving mass of water?
Tide. Tides are masses of moving water. The moons gravitational pull causes the form of a wave to occur.
When does redshift occur?
Red shift occurs when an object is moving away from the observer.
Which conditions is a tornado most likely to occur?
Tornadoes are most likely to occur when a cold front or dry line is moving into an area, providing weak to modest lift in an area of sufficient instability with strong low level wind shear, high helicity, and that has an inversion cap.
When does the waxing phase occur?
Usually, in the summer when the stragglies are noticeable along the bikini line. Or, just before the wane.When the lit part of the Moon is on the left side (as viewed from Earth) the Moon is waxing (ie, moving towards a full moon). When the light is on the right, the Moon is waning (ie, moving towards a new moon).
Where do Auroras occur?
They occur in the Mesosphere.
What powerful peristaltic contractions that occur a few times each day in the colon are called?
e) mass movement
Where will pain occur if a lesion is present in contractile tissue?
if the lesion is in a contractile tissue i.e muscle then active n passive movements are painful and/or restricted in opposite direction of motion.
What part of the large intestine are you most likely to get colon cancer?
The first section of the large intestine is the Right Ascending colon, which begins with the cecum. it is followed by the Transverse colon, and finally the Sigmoid colon. Less than 10% of colon cancers (some sources say only 5%) occur in the Ascending colon or cecum. The majority of colon cancers occur in the Sigmoid colon.
What types of colon parasites are there?
There are several colon and intestinal parasites that can occur in the human body, such as parasitic worms. Similarly, protozoans are colon parasitic organisms.
Where do haustral contractions occur in the GI system?
In the Colon of Large Intestine
Why contractile vacuoles would be of Little value to one-celled organisms living in the ocean (salt water)?
Contractile vacuoles would be of little value to one-celled organisms living in the salt water because the contractile vacuoles pump out excess water that accumulates in the cell though osmosis. The ocean has salt water so osmosis would not be able to occur.
Dehydration and compation of the indigestible materials occurs in the?
These process occur in the large intestine and colon
Where are moving stones occur?
Slopes
Does colon cleaning occur naturally in th ebody without medical intervention?
Mainstream medical experts do not advocate colon cleansing. Under normal circumstances, the body does not need special colon cleansing protocols. Some outside of mainstream medicine advocate colon cleanses, stating that toxins build up in the colon and need to be removed periodically.
Do Ocean Trenches Occur where plates are moving apart or where They are moving apart?
at mid ocean ridges
How does osmoregulation occur in unicellular organisms?
Osmoregulation in unicellular organisms is by active transport. For example in Paramecium - osmoregulation is done by organelles called contractile vacuoles. These contractile vacuoles are spherical shaped structures surrounded by a series of radiating ducts. These ducts collect water and pump it into the central area by means of contractile fibres that contract and force the water into the center. When the vacuoles are full the unicellular organism contracts forcing the water outside the cell.
Why contractile vacuoles would be of little value to one cell organisms living in the ocean?
I do get it,for the organism living in the hypertonic salt water(ocean) the contractile vacuole is most not needed since the water in the organism are already on thier way out!
