Generation of proton gradients across membranes occurs during what?
Generation of proton gradients across membranes occur during both photosynthesis and respiration. The reduction of oxygen which forms water occurs during respiration.Ê
Do carbons form four ionic bonds in its compound?
Carbon has the ability to have four bond sites, however, sometimes, such as in CO2, there are sets of lone pairs where bonding can occur, but has yet to happen.
What is a diatomic reaction?
certain elements naturally occur in pairs, called diatomic elements: Nitrogen, Oxygen, Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, and i believe Iodine. Ie. in nature, you never see a nitrogen by itself.
What is the name given to the pairs of valence electrons that do not participate in bonding ina diatomic oxygen molecules?
These pairs of electrons are referred to as lone pairs.
Does SeF6 have lone pairs?
IF6+ cation has no lone pairs, the IF6- anion has one lone pair. SF6 has no lone pairs.
What anatomical class of membranes does parietal peritoneum belong to?
Serous membranes
WHAT is the difference between visceral and parietal serous membrane?
Visceral serous membranes line organs. Parietal serous membranes line cavities.
Simple squamous epithelium forming mesothelium of serous membranes. what does it do?
Well, you see here, the simple squamous epithelium that forms the mesothelium of the serous membranes form the mesothelium of the serous membranes. You're welcome.
Where in the body do serous membranes occur?
Serous membranes line body cavities that do not open directly to the outside, and they cover the organs located in those cavities. Serous membranes are covered by a thin layer of serous fluid that is secreted by the epithelium. Serous fluid lubricates the membrane and reduces friction and abrasion when organs in the thoracic or abdominopelvic cavity move against each other or the cavity wall. Serous membranes have special names given according to their location. For example, the serous membrane that lines the thoracic cavity and covers the lungs is called pleura.
What serous membrane surrounds the stomach?
The visceral segment of the serous membranes encases the internal organs while the parietal segment is responsible for lining the body wall. Serous membranes which care for the needs of the lungs are known as pleurae while the serous membranes which care for the abdominal cavity are known as peritoneum, but are also referred to as peritoneal membranes.
What describes serous cavities?
they are sacs lined with serous membranes that serve as lubricating devices.
What is the fluid secreted by the specialized membranes that line the body cavities?
Serous fluid is secreted by membranes the line the body cavities, such as the pleura and peritoneum.
Is a membrane a tissue?
There are four different membranes in the body that are related to tissue; cutaneous membranes, mucosal membranes, synovial membranes, and serous membranes.
What are the membranes that line the closed cavities?
These membranes are called serous membranes as they produce a thin slippery fluid.
The visceral and parietal pleura are made of?
serous membranes
What is the function of serous membranes?
Serous membranes line and enclose several body cavities where they secrete a lubricating fluid which reduces friction from muscle movement.Serous membranes are responsible for secreting serous fluids. Some organs that have serous membranes are the uterus, stomach, pericardium (the area that surrounds the heart), the pleural cavity (the area that surrounds the lungs) and the paritoneal cavity (the cavity that lines the abdominal organs). Without the secretions of the serous membranes, these areas would be dry....can you imagine your lungs sticking to your ribs as you breathe? That would not be good!Hope this helpsA RN in NJ
What membranes are called wet membranes?
Mucous membranes or mucosae are "wet" membranes. This is because they are continously bathed by secretions, except the mucous membranes of the urinary tract that is continously bathed with urine. Mucous, serous, and synovial
