What else can I help you with?
ARE THE lumen surfaces of the tubule cells within the proximal convoluted tubule are covered with micro villi?
yes
What structure helps increase the surface area available for absorption?
The intestinal wall has invaginations (or dips) that have a much larger surface ares compared to a simple tube
Is mercury and the moon covered with craters on the surfaces?
Yes, Mercury and the Earth's moon are covered with craters on the surfaces
What types of tissue can have have microvilli?
The types of tissue that can have microvilli are epithelial and endothelial tissues. Microvilli are small, finger-like projections on the surface of cells that increase surface area for absorption and secretion. They are commonly found in tissues involved in absorption and secretion functions, such as the lining of the intestines and kidneys.
The internal and external surfaces of the body are covered by?
The internal surfaces such as inside blood vessels and lymph nodes are covered by endothelium and the external surfaces are covered by epithelium. "Epithelial tissues line the cavities and surfaces of structures throughout the body, and also form many glands." (Wikipedia)
What are the hair like projects on villi called?
The hair-like projects on villi are called microvilli. These tiny, finger-like extensions increase the surface area of the villi, enhancing the absorption of nutrients in the small intestine. Microvilli are covered in a brush border of enzymes that aid in digestion and nutrient absorption.
What structure increase surface area for absorption of nutrients?
The structure that increases surface area for absorption of nutrients in the small intestine is called the villi. Villi are tiny, finger-like projections that line the inner wall of the small intestine and are covered in even smaller hair-like structures called microvilli. Together, villi and microvilli greatly increase the surface area available for the absorption of nutrients from digested food.
What are microvill?
Microvilli are tiny, finger-like projections found on the surface of certain epithelial cells, particularly in the intestines and kidneys. They increase the surface area of the cell, enhancing the absorption of nutrients and other substances. Microvilli are covered with a glycocalyx, which plays a role in cell signaling and protection. Their structure is supported by a core of actin filaments, contributing to their stability and functionality.
Does rough surfaces exert greater friction?
Yes. Think about two steep hills. One is covered in ice (smooth). The other is covered in sandpaper (rough). The ice covered hill would be MUCH easier to slide down. Thus, the friction is much LESS, on a SMOOTH SURFACE. Then the opposite must be true, that friction is GREATER on a ROUGH SURFACE.
On what surfaces can you iron?
You can iron on surfaces that are heat-resistant and flat, such as an ironing board, a table covered with a thick towel, or a flat countertop. Avoid ironing on surfaces that can melt or catch fire, like plastic or wood.
In symphysis joints the articular surfaces of the bones are covered with?
In symphysis joints, the articular surfaces of the bones are covered with hyaline cartilage and fibrocartilage. The fibrocartilage acts as a shock absorber and provides stability to the joint while the hyaline cartilage allows for smooth movement between the bones.
The small finger like nodules on the wall of the what are called what?
The small finger-like nodules on the wall of the intestines are called villi. These projections increase the surface area for absorption of nutrients in the digestive tract. Villi are covered with microvilli, further enhancing their absorptive capacity.
