What else can I help you with?
What are folded structures that help with absorbing nutrients?
enzymes
What is a folded plate structure?
A folded plate structure is a type of building structure. In this type of structure, there are thin walls and flat plates or components connected to create a dihedral angled shell.
What term describes a polypeptide that is folded in 3-d structure and serve a purpose in living organisms?
Enzymes have this structure. The way that they are folded determines their function.
What is the folded tube inside the body attached to the stomach where nutrients in the food are absorbed.?
Small intestine is where 90% of nutrients are absorbed.
Why do you need villi?
Vili are folds in the walls of the gastrointestinal tract (intestines) which increase surface area. Basically, as food and stuff you've ingested is pushed past, all these little folds (vili and microvili), they absorbs the nutrients you need in your body. And being folded lots of times means greater surface area and therefore its easier to get the nutrients!
What internal organ absorbs food for the fetal pigs?
In fetal pigs, the organ responsible for absorbing nutrients from the digested food is the small intestine. This organ has a highly folded inner surface lined with villi, which increase the surface area for absorption. The absorbed nutrients then enter the bloodstream and are transported to various tissues throughout the body for growth and development.
What is the structure and function of the villi in the small intestine?
The villi are important structure of the small intestine. They have increased surface area and aid absorption of nutrients 30 fold. Upon each villi are microvilli, same function but increase absorption by 60 fold.
What level of molecular organization is a beta-folded sheet?
A beta-folded sheet is a secondary structure of a protein, which is the next level of molecular organization above the primary structure. It is formed by hydrogen bonding between adjacent segments of a polypeptide chain, creating a flat and elongated sheet-like structure.
Why is artesian springs found in folded structure?
Artesian springs are found in folded structures because the folding creates impermeable layers that trap water within the structure. When water flows into the folded structure and encounters an impermeable layer, it is forced to move laterally until it finds a point to escape, creating artesian springs where the water naturally emerges above ground.
what is a biomolecular structure?
Biomolecular structure is the intricate folded, three-dimensional shape that is formed by a molecule of protein, DNA, or RNA, and that is important to its function.
Bond stabilizes protein folded 3D structure and DNA double helix 3D structure?
non polar bond
When a polypeptide is folded it is called what?
When a polypeptide is folded into its three-dimensional structure, it is referred to as a protein. Proteins are made up of one or more polypeptide chains that have folded into a specific conformation to perform their biological functions.
