Because of this reason, doctors tend to recommend having regular screening tests to help prevent colon cancer by recognising and removing polyps…

1. What is Diffusion? Give an example of diffusion happening in the human body. Diffusion happens when molecules disperse themselves evenly throughout an enclosed area by colliding with other molecules (Wood, 2013, ex. 6). Because the molecules are not using ATP to move, simple diffusion is considered a passive mechanism of transport. Until the substance is equally distributed across the area it is contained in, it will continue to diffuse (Wood, 2013, ex. 6). Once the substance is equally…

Discussion The glycemic index of the dosa prepared from foxtail millet was low. This is due to the high levels of soluble dietary fiber in the millet. The total dietary fiber was reported to be27.02%, soluble dietary fiber 11.56% and the insoluble dietary fiber 15.44%11. It has been reported that the high viscosity of the soluble fiber delays digestion and absorption18. The glucose levels can be maintained to near normal with the help of dietary modification. It can be inferred from the above…
