You can see with the question alone that the plates involved is a oceanic and continental plate. With just that you can say that the answer is A. Another clue would be the <em>subduction</em><em />. This means that the plates converged, which makes it the type of boundary that occurred is <em>convergent. 

</em>
<em />The answer again is A. <em>

Answer:

A)continental-oceanic convergent

Explanation:

The convergent oceanic-continental boundary occurs when a collision occurs between an oceanic plate and a continental plate, as with the nazca ocean plate being subdivided below the South American continental plate. The result of this is the formation of a subduction zone, since the oceanic plate is heavier and ends up below the continental plate.

A person had bread and butter for his breakfast. Trace the changes in the main components of these during its passage through th
Papessa [141]

When the bread and butter is in mouth, mechanical digestion starts. The size of the food gets reduced and it mixes with saliva for easy swallowing. The salivary amylase in saliva begins the digestion of starch in the bread. This is the start of chemical digestion. When the undigested bread and butter reached the stomach, lower esophageal sphincter relaxes and allow the chewed food to enter. The gastric secretions containing HCl, acts on the undigested food to produce chime. HCl kill the microorganism on the food and also denatures the protein and later attacked by digestive enzyme pepsin. Pepsin breakdown protein in the bread, butter . Later on gastric lipase begins to digest fat present in butter. Digestion of the starch in bread does not occur in the stomach because the salivary amylase that began chemical digestion in mouth became inactive in the presence of HCl. Further the chime enters the small intestine where bile secreted by the gall bladder emulsifies the fat and break into small globule which helps in fat absorption.
