Upwelling
Upwelling
Giant kelp absorbs nutrients through its surface tissues, taking in dissolved minerals and other elements from the water around it. These nutrients are essential for its growth and development.
The greatest concentration of dissolved gases is located in the surface zone because of the direct contact with the atmosphere where gases like oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged between the water and the air through diffusion. Additionally, wind and waves help to mix and oxygenate the surface water, providing more opportunities for gas exchange.
The rate of diffusion is directly related to the concentration of gradient. For example, the greater the amount between the concentration of the areas, the greater the greater to difference in diffusion.
It increases the surface area of your gut wall (because there are millions) and make absorption of nutrients quicker. Hope this helps
they have to scavenge forimmobile nutrients either by exploring the soil with prolific root growth or by encouraging diffusion by increasing the concentration gradient by lowering the concentration at the Root surface. also the presence/absence of mycorrhiza can help with root extension
The inner lining of the intestine has folds in it so as to increase the surface are. This greater aids in the absorption of nutrients from the gut. The larger the surface area, the greater the rate of absorption.
Upwelling is important because it brings greater concentrations of dissolved nutrients, such as nitrates and phosphates, to the ocean surface. that way fish will go to the top of the water and eat the plankton making it much easier for fisherman to catch a quick bite. :) hope that helps
surface area = greater availability to nutrients
Many electrochemical reactions produce or consume species in the solution. The rates of reactions involving dissolved species which participate as reactants in the rate-determining step(that stage in the reaction which controls its rate) will be dependent on the concentration of the dissolved species. As the dissolved species are consumed by the reaction, so a greater change in potential will be required to maintain the current, and this is known as concentration polarization. A reaction for which concentration polarization dominates is referred to as mass-transport or diffusion controlled.
In the small intestine, the folds in the cell membranes of intestinal epithelial cells, known as microvilli, significantly increase the surface area available for nutrient absorption. This enhanced surface area facilitates more efficient transport of nutrients, allowing for a greater amount of nutrients to be absorbed into the bloodstream. The intricate structure of these folds ensures that the intestine maximizes its capacity to absorb essential nutrients from digested food.
Large amounts of dissolved nutrients are brought to the ocean's surface.
