What else can I help you with?
What minerals are absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract without being digested first?
Minerals such as calcium, iron, and magnesium are absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract without being digested first.
What molecules would easily be able to diffuse through a cell membrane without the help of a transport protein?
Small, nonpolar molecules like oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water can easily diffuse through the cell membrane without the need for a transport protein. Their small size and lipophilic nature allow them to pass through the lipid bilayer of the membrane via simple diffusion.
What organ is small material not used by the body?
Appendix is a small organ in our digestive system in which our science today does not have justification of its function yet. We can live normally without our appendix.
Assisted transport of a molecule across the cell membrane without an expenditure of energy is known as?
Passive transport. It relies on the natural movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration, following the concentration gradient. Examples include diffusion and facilitated diffusion.
If you didn't have a large intestine what would happen?
Without a large intestine, also known as the colon, you would not be able to absorb water and nutrients from the digested food, leading to severe dehydration and malnutrition. Additionally, you would have difficulty removing waste from your body, resulting in digestive issues and potentially toxic buildup.
Which molecule can diffuse from the digestive tract into the human bloddstream without first being digested?
amino acid
What happen to material that passes through the digestive system without being digested and absorbed?
It comes out the other end.
Is oxygen lipid soluble?
No, oxygen is not lipid soluble. It is a small, nonpolar molecule that can diffuse easily across cell membranes without the need for specific transport mechanisms.
What substance passes through the body without being digested?
Glucose
What type of carbohydrate can only be digested by ruminants and not humans by?
cellulose which is present in grass can be digested by ruminants but cannot be digested by humans
Can triglycerides be absorbed without being digested?
No . A molecule of triglyceride is composed of a molecule of glycerol in ... Triglyceridescannot be efficiently absorbed, and are enzymatically digested by pancreatic lipase into a 2-monoglyceride and 2 Free fatty acids. All of which can be absorbed. Other lipase's hydrolyse a triglyceride into glycerol and 3 fatty acids.
Why is poo disgusting if it is the food you ate?
The food that is turned into Feces (Poop) is the bits and pieces of food that can not be digested. The food is also eradicated from its all water. It tastes so bad because it has been run through your digestive system without getting digested, and because most of its water has been removed.
What is ATP's role in the cell?
ATP is a molecule that helps supply enough energy to perform active transport. Without it, the molecules in the cell cannot diffuse across the cell because there isn't enough energy.
What is A large glucose molecule requires facilitated diffusion but an oxygen molecule referring to?
A large glucose molecule requires facilitated diffusion because it is too big to pass through the cell membrane without assistance from transport proteins. In contrast, an oxygen molecule is small enough to diffuse freely across the cell membrane through simple diffusion due to its size and hydrophobic nature.
Does the body digest pepper?
no it cant digest it just goes right through you
Are people born without a digestive system?
People can't be born without a digestive system. It is a vital organ that your body needs to live. You will die without your digestive system.
What minerals are absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract without being digested first?
Minerals such as calcium, iron, and magnesium are absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract without being digested first.
