What organ does alcohol primarily target first after it is absorbed into the blood?
Alcohol primarily targets the liver first after it is absorbed into the blood.
What materials are not absorbed and are egested in the digestion system?
The materials that are not absorbed and are egested are cellulose and lignin from plant matter, the remains of intestinal epithelial cells, bile pigments, and bacteria. <http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/IB_Biology_Option_H_-_Further_human_physiology#Digestion>
Passage of materials through villi into the blood?
Digested nutrients are absorbed through the wall of the small intestine by villi, which are finger-like projections that increase the surface area for absorption. Once absorbed, the nutrients pass through the villi into the bloodstream to be transported to cells throughout the body for energy and other functions. This process allows for efficient absorption of nutrients from the digested food.
What nutrients are absorbed from the digestive tract directly into the blood?
Nutrients such as carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals are absorbed from the digestive tract directly into the blood.
What happens when glucose is absorbed into the bloodstream?
When glucose is absorbed into the bloodstream, it raises blood sugar levels, which triggers the release of insulin from the pancreas. Insulin helps cells take in glucose for energy or storage. If there is excess glucose, it may be stored as glycogen in the liver or converted to fat for long-term storage. Maintaining balanced blood sugar levels is important for overall health.
What happens to materials that are absorbed?
they get saved for later
What happens to absorbed light when it interacts with different materials?
When absorbed light interacts with different materials, it can be reflected, transmitted, or absorbed by the material. The specific outcome depends on the properties of the material, such as its color, texture, and composition.
What happens when sound hits soft materials?
generally speaking, the sound is absorbed.
What happens to proteins in small intestine?
They are broken down and absorbed into the blood.
What happens to food that is not digested and absorbed?
Materials not absorbed in the colon are excreted as waste products in the feces.
What happens when light strikes an opaque materials?
The light is absorbed and change to tiny amount of heat
What happens when light strikes opaque materials?
The light is absorbed and change to tiny amount of heat
What happens when blood in capillaries flow the past cells?
Materials needed by the cells move from the blood into the cells, and waste materials move from the cells into the blood.
What happens when light hits opaque materials?
Generally, some will get reflected and some will get absorbed and converted to heat.
How are photons absorbed by materials and what happens to them afterwards?
Photons are absorbed by materials when their energy matches the energy levels of electrons in the material. When a photon is absorbed, it can cause an electron to move to a higher energy level or be released as heat. The absorbed energy can also be re-emitted as a new photon or used to create a chemical reaction.
What happens to glucose in the small intestine?
It gets absorbed into the blood stream via Lumen and a Glucose/Na+ symporter, Na+/K+ atpase and glucose 2 uniporter, but essentially is absorbed into the blood stream.
Can light be absorbed by certain materials?
Yes, light can be absorbed by certain materials.
