Biology

Elza [17]1 year ago

Short-term regulation of feeding involves signals coming from the liver and GI tract. Stretch receptors send afferent signals through the vagal nerve fibers to the chemoreceptors in the stomach and proximal small intestine,

Short-term regulation food intake is primarily regulated by food signals resulting from both their preabsorptive action in the gut and their postabsorptive metabolism, as opposed to long-term food intake, which is regulated by adiposity signals. The first process, commonly referred to as short-term regulation, tries to consume enough energy to counteract what is being used up. It is typically believed that this short-term mechanism controls both the interval between meals and the amount of the meals.

How do birds digest their food in the absence of teeth?
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

They have a gizzard to grind the food.

Explanation:

Birds cannot chew since they have no teeth. However, the beak allows them to split very large seeds or swallow them directly.

For their digestion they have a stomach where digestion enzymes are released. Also they have a gizzard that is an organ that grinds the food mechanically. This gizzard usually has small stones inside that were previously ingested and that helps to digest the food.
