What else can I help you with?
Write the balanced chemical equation for tissue respiration?
c6H12O6+6O2=6CO2+6H2O+ENERGYGlucose + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy
Which organic compound serves as insulation against cold?
Lipids, specifically adipose tissue (body fat), serve as insulation against the cold due to their ability to store energy and provide thermal resistance. adipose tissue helps reduce heat loss from the body by acting as a barrier to cold temperatures.
The term of erosion of tissue?
The erosion of tissue refers to gradual wearing away or breaking down of tissue by physical or chemical processes. This can occur due to factors such as inflammation, infections, or exposure to irritants, leading to the disruption of the normal structure and function of the affected tissue. Treatment usually involves addressing the underlying cause and promoting tissue healing.
What is important of ground tissue in plants?
Ground tissue in plants serves as a supportive structure that provides mechanical strength. It also functions in storage of nutrients, water, and photosynthates. Additionally, ground tissue plays a role in photosynthesis and the exchange of gases.
What happens to the oxygen in lungs?
It leaves the body when it's exhaled. Before it is exhaled, some of the oxygen is absorbed through the membrane wall tissue, and into the bloodstream.
The most distinguishing characteristic of muscle tissue is?
Excitability = the ability to receive and respond to a stimulus Contractility = the ability to shorten Extensibility = the ability to be stretched Elasticity = the ability to resume normal length after contraction or having been stretched.
Ease with which lung tissue can be stretched?
Compliance
What is the role of elastic tissue?
To allow for it to be stretched
What tissue can contract and be stretched but not expand?
muscle
What tissue is tightly packed?
Epithelial tissue is tightly packed in order to provide a protective barrier and cover surfaces in the body. This tissue is made up of closely packed cells that form a continuous sheet.
Another term for the ease with which any tissue can be stretched is?
Compliance
What is yellow connective tissue that can be stretched and returned to its original shape?
cartilage
What tissue consists of tightly packed sheets of cells that are usually anchored on only one face of the tissue?
Simple epithelial tissue consists of tightly packed sheets of cells that are usually anchored on only one face of the tissue. This tissue is found covering body surfaces and lining body cavities.
What is the most general characteristics of epithelial tissue?
Tightly packed cells
Which epithelial tissue has cells that can change shape when stretched versus contracted?
Transitional epithelium is the epithelial tissue that has cells capable of changing shape when stretched (such as when the bladder is full) or contracted (when the bladder is empty). This type of epithelium allows for tissue expansion without losing its integrity.
What type of of connective tissue fibers can be stretched without breaking?
Elastic fibers can be stretched without breaking due to their ability to recoil back to their original shape.
What tissue is specialized for the rapid diffusion of gases and nutrients across its cells?
The tissue specialized for the rapid diffusion of gases and nutrients across its cells is known as epithelial tissue. This type of tissue is composed of tightly packed cells with minimal extracellular matrix, allowing for efficient transfer of molecules through its thin layer. Examples of epithelial tissue include the alveoli in the lungs and the lining of the small intestine.
