breakdown

Examples of breakdown in the following topics:

• Dieletrics and their Breakdown

  • Breakdown is more of a rough concept than an exact science.
  • A material's breakdown voltage cannot be precisely defined.
  • Additionally, the nature of the voltage used to induce breakdown must be considered.
  • The treelike pattern in the plexiglas stems from the root of the breakdown.
  • Identify conditions that can lead to a dielectric breakdown and its effect on materials

• Integrated Analytics

  • There will be a breakdown by student as well as a question-by-question breakdown of which students answered which questions correctly.

• Breakdown of Pyruvate

• Chemical Digestion of Carbohydrates, Proteins, Lipids, and Nucleic Acids

  • Chemical breakdown of macromolecules contained in food is completed by various enzymes produced in the digestive system.
  • The presence of fat in the small intestine produces hormones that stimulate the release of pancreatic lipase from the pancreas, and bile from the liver, enabling the breakdown of fats into fatty acids.

• Importance of Glycolysis

  • Glycolysis is the first step in the breakdown of glucose to extract energy for cellular metabolism.
  • Glycolysis is the first pathway used in the breakdown of glucose to extract energy.

• Hydrolysis

  • Hydrolysis reactions result in the breakdown of polymers into monomers by using a water molecule and an enzymatic catalyst.
  • Polymers are broken down into monomers in a process known as hydrolysis, which means "to split water," a reaction in which a water molecule is used during the breakdown .
  • The breakdown of these macromolecules is an overall energy-releasing process and provides energy for cellular activities.

• Processes and Functions of the Digestive System

  • The gastrointestinal tract is responsible for the breakdown and absorption of various foods and liquids needed to sustain life.
  • Many different organs have essential roles in the digestion of food, from the mechanical breakdown by the teeth to the creation of bile (an emulsifier) by the liver.
  • This mechanical and chemical breakdown encompasses the process of digestion.
  • Enzymes in saliva then begin the chemical breakdown of food, and teeth aid in the mechanical breakdown of larger food particles.
  • Once the bolus reaches the stomach, gastric juices mix with the partially digested food and continue the breakdown process.

• Digestion in the Mouth, Pharynx, and Esophagus

  • Digestion is the mechanical and chemical breakdown of food into smaller components that are more readily absorbed into the bloodstream.
  • Digestion is the mechanical and chemical breakdown of food into smaller components so that it can be more readily absorbed into the bloodstream.
  • It is a form of catabolism: a breakdown of large food molecules into smaller ones.
  • These include salivary amylase, which aids in the chemical breakdown of polysaccharides such as starch into disaccharides such as maltose; and lingual lipase, which hydrolyzes long-chain triglycerides into partial glycerides and free fatty acids.

• Scenario breakdown of the Mezirow phases of transformation

• Food Energy and ATP

  • Animals use energy for metabolism, obtaining that energy from the breakdown of food through the process of cellular respiration.
