The digestion process of proteins begin with the action of an enzyme that is called pepsin. Pepsin is the protein digestive enzyme that is located in the stomach. The digestion of proteins occur in the stomach. The proteins are broken down into amino acids and these are absorbed in the small intestines and transported into the blood stream.

6−2(4+5)+6<br><br><br>what are the steps to getting the amswer -6
gregori [183]

6-2(4+5)+6

First, you go off of PEMDAS, (parentheses, exponients, mutiply, divide, add, subract), and you will mutiply -2 to the numbers in the parentheses, -2x4 and -2x5. Which will then give you -8 and -10.

Then you set up your equation as normal, except without parentheses, which will make the equation 6-8+-10+6.

Then you will combine the two negative numbers, and it'll give you -18.

Then you will combine both the positive numbers, and that'll give you 12.

Add 12 to -18 and that will give you -6.

Two factors that determine the rate of stream erosion
marissa [1.9K]
Factors that determine the rate of stream erosion-

➡️ Rainfall (more rain more erosion). ✔️

➡️water velocity ✔️

➡️shape, size and depth of channel ✔️

➡️stream capacity to transport eroded material, and the nature of the material being transported✔️

➡️Gradient (Steepness or slope) ✔️

➡️Discharge (Amount of water carried at a given time) ✔️

➡️Load (The materials carried by a stream)
Rainfall (more rain more erosion). ✔️

➡️Slope (the steeper the slope the faster the water will flow) ✔️

➡️Geology (if the bedrock is a soft silt it will erode faster than granite).✔️

Pepsinogen is produced by __________ and is activated by __________
Ket [755]

Answer:

Pepsinogen is produced by chief cells and is activated by hydrochloric acid secreted by parietal cells.

Explanation:

Pepsinogen is a proenzyme produced in the chief cells (that are located in the stomach lining) that, when gets activated, is transformed into pepsin - a peptidase with the function to degrade proteins into amino acids.

The reason why pepsinogen is released inactive is that it would break down all of the cell's proteins because of its proteolytic nature. For this reason, it is released as a proenzyme and gets activated when reaches the acidic environment provided by the hydrochloric acid secreted by the parietal cells, also in the stomach lining.

How did Claire's digestion reaction weights tell you that the problem was in her small intestine, and not in her stomach
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The reaction rate of the digestion helps in understanding which part of the digestive system having trouble in digestion especialy stomach and intenstine related.

It involves the fact that most of the enrgy or calories are get by the small intestine and also vitamins and minerals are absorbed by this part of the digestive system so if the small intestine is having problem the rate of digestion would be affected and and an individual could be malabosrbed.

If the problem lies in the stomach  it might show some effects of a poor digestion, however the rate of digestion would be better than if the problem lies in the small intestine.
