Answer:
cells
Explanation:
cells are responsible for the structures and functions
Answer:
Sternocleidomastoid, pectoralis minor, scalenes
Explanation:
During normal inhalation, contraction of the diaphragm and the contraction of external intercostals expands the chest cavity. The increased volume of the thoracic cavity results in reduced alveolar pressure than the atmospheric pressure to facilitate the flow of air into the lungs in response to the pressure gradient.
During deep inhalation as it occurs when running up the stairs, the accessory muscles of inhalation also participate to increase the volume of the chest cavity. The contraction of scalene and sternocleidomastoid muscles increase the volume of the chest cavity further to create a greater drop in alveolar pressure.
During forceful inhalation, the sternocleidomastoid muscles serve to elevate the sternum, the scalene muscles serve to elevate the first two ribs while the pectoralis minor elevate the third through fifth ribs.
Answer:
They are sections of DNA that produce the proteins that control an organism's characteristics.
Explanation:
- <em><u>Genes are units of heredity found in a certain place on a chromosome and that codes for a certain product.</u></em>
- A trait of an organism is a characteristic that an organism can pass on to its offspring through its genes
.
- Genes are sections of DNA that contains information which controls a trait. Therefore, a trait depends on genes. Therefore; genes are the sections or segments of DNA that code for a specific trait in organisms.
After the digestion of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins in duodenum, the digested nutrients are absorbed in the ileum.
Ileum is a section of the small intestine, after duodenum.
Food is absorbed by diffusion and active transport. Villi on the walls of the ileum helps this process, since it can increase its surface area and provide a good blood supply, thus increase the rate of absorption.
Note that water can also be absorbed in the large intestine, those water absorbed there are the ones that cannot be absorbed in the ileum.
However, not all water is absorbed as we can notice that faeces are wet.
