<u>Stomach</u> is the part of the GI tract does not actively participate in the digestion of carbohydrates.

Carbohydrates are first mechanically and chemically broken down in the mouth. Mastication, another term for chewing, breaks down the meals high in carbohydrates into ever-tinier bits. Saliva that covers the food particles is produced by salivary glands in the mouth cavity. Salivary amylase is an enzyme found in saliva.

Dietary carbohydrates are converted to glucose, fructose, and/or galactose in the small intestine and then absorbed into the blood. The breakdown and absorption of dietary carbohydrates can be influenced by a variety of factors.

If i show a dominant trait do one of my parents have to show the same trait? explain?​
Mama L [17]
Well, not exactly like some parents have blue eyes and they have a dominant brown eyed child. This can happen because of the gynotype. The history of the child’s parents probably have some brown eyes which caused the child to have brown eyes. But usually the parent does express a dominant trait like the child.

I<br> 4. Genetic Equilibrium...explain it.
sveticcg [70]

Answer: Genetic equilibrium is a situation where allele frequencies in a gene pool are not changing. In other words, the population is not evolving. The conditions to maintain the genetic equilibrium are no mutation, no gene flow, large population size, random mating, and no natural selection. The equilibrium can be disrupted by deviations from any of its five main underlying conditions.

An example of this in humans would be a heterozygote for brown eye color. The person would carry both a dominant brown allele “A” and a recessive blue allele “a” yet have brown eyes. The dominant brown allele masks the recessive blue allele. Genetic equilibrium is the state in which allele frequencies remain constant.
