Answer:
Because of the difference in surface area to volume ratio
Explanation:
Surface are to volume ratio is the area of an object that is exposed to the external environment (surface area), compared to the amount within an object (volume).
Therefore an elephant has a lower surface area to volume ratio than a mouse.
The smaller an object is the greater its surface area to volume ratio.
Small animals have much more surface area per mass than large animals. With so much surface area, they lose heat very quickly. So, a mouse, with a lot of surface area per mass, must spend a lot more energy to stay warm than a large animal.
In some skeletal muscles, the
fascicles form a common angle with the tendon. These skeletal muscles are known
as Pennate muscles (also called pinnate muscles or penniform muscles). Generally,
these types of muscles allow higher force production but smaller range of
motion.

A
Explanation:
Digestion begins in the mouth with the process of chewing also known as mastication. Saliva in the mouth mixes with the food. saliva contains amylose. This breaks down sugar into smaller units of dextrins and maltose.
In the small intestine, the pancreas releases pancreatic juice which breaks down dextrins into smaller units.
the cells in the small intestine helps to transport the digested nutrients to the blood stream
Undigested food goes to the large intestine and eliminated in the stool
