Does the stomach produce mucus?
Does the stomach produce mucus? The stomach has a two-layered mucus system, composed of an inner, attached mucus and an outer, unattached, loose mucus layer, both built by the MUC5AC mucin produced by the superficial epithelium. Glands in the stomach and duodenum secrete the gel-forming mucin MUC6. What would happen if there was no mucus […]
What is flux in electric field?
What is flux in electric field? Electric flux, property of an electric field that may be thought of as the number of electric lines of force (or electric field lines) that intersect a given area. The negative flux just equals in magnitude the positive flux, so that the net, or total, electric flux is zero. […]

How does gradient change discharge?
How does gradient change discharge? While gradient decreases between a stream’s headwaters and mouth, discharge increases. Gradient and discharge determine the velocity of a stream.

What are the 2 numbers given for each element?
What are the 2 numbers given for each element? The number above the symbol is the atomic mass (or atomic weight). This is the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom. The number below the symbol is the atomic number and this reflects the number of protons in the nucleus of each element’s […]
Do bulbs in series have the same brightness?
Do bulbs in series have the same brightness? Placing cells in series increases the voltage in the circuit by 1.5 V for each cell. Increasing the number of bulbs in a series circuit decreases the brightness of the bulbs. In a series circuit, the voltage is equally distributed among all of the bulbs. Bulbs in […]
Is anyone lost in space?
Is anyone lost in space? A total of 18 people have lost their lives either while in space or in preparation for a space mission, in four separate incidents. Given the risks involved in space flight, this number is surprisingly low. The two worst disasters both involved NASA’s space shuttle. What are the risks of […]
