describe how physically shaking heavy cream transforms liquid milk into a soft solid and then separates it into a different solid and liquid.

Athermometer is placed in water in order to measure the water’s temperature. what would cause the liquid in the thermometer to rise?

Which of the following is a difference between active transport and facilitated diffusion? view available hint(s)which of the following is a difference between active transport and facilitated diffusion? facilitated diffusion can move solutes against a concentration gradient, and active transport cannot. active transport involves transport proteins, and facilitated diffusion does not. facilitated diffusion involves transport proteins, and active transport does not. active transport requires the expenditure of cellular energy, and facilitated diffusion does not.

The kidney filters potentially toxic substances in the blood, and thus “clears” the blood of those substances. this clearance function is dependent upon and proportional to the diffusion gradient of the substance across filtering capillaries, i. e. if the concentration of the substance is doubled, twice as much will be cleared from each ml of blood that is filtered. suppose that the body produces a constant amount of a substance x per unit of time. the kidneys eliminate substance x at a rate directly proportional to the concentration of the substance and the volume of blood cleared each minute (c): elimination = c × [x], where [x] is the steady-state concentration of substance x. imagine an individual with an initial concentration of x equal to [x]0 who develops kidney disease. her baseline clearance c0 drops to one half of the original (½c0). what is the new steady state concentration of x? (for simplicity, assume that substance x is 100% filtered by the kidney).
