Answer:

Z = 16.0\ kPa\ mm^3\ s^{-1} = 16.0\times 10^{-3}\ mJ.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Unit conversion is the multi-step process which involves the multiplication or the division by a specified numerical factor as well as the selection of the correct number of the significant digits and rounding.

There are various units in which physical parameters are expressed. In the given question qunatity is given in kPa\ mm^3\ s^{-1} which has to be converted to mJ.s^{-1}.

Further Explanation:

The given unit conversion includes two steps:

Step 1  

Conversion from kPa.mm^3.s^{-1} to Pa.m^3.s^{-1}

1kPa = 10^3\ Pa

1\ mm^3=10^{-9} m^3

Z = 16.0\ kPa\ mm^3\ s^{-1}

= 16.0\times (kPa\times \frac{10^3\ Pa}{1\ kPa} )\time (mm^3 \times \frac{10^{-9}\ m^3}{1\ mm^3} ).s^{-1}  

=16.0\times 10^{-6} Pa.m^3.s^{-1}

Step 2

Convesion from =16.0\times 10^{-6} Pa.m^3.s^{-1} to J.s^{-1}

1\ Pa=1 \frac{N}{m^2}

1 N.m = 1 J

=16.0\times 10^{-6} Pa.m^3.s^{-1} = 16.0 \times \frac{N}{m^2} .m^3 .s^{-1}
[tex]=16.0\times 10^{-6}\ J.s^{-1}

1\ J = 10^{3}\ mJ

16.0\times 10^{-6}\ J.s^{-1}=16.0\times (J\times \frac{10^3\ mJ}{1\ J}).s^{-1}

=16.0\times 10^{-3}\ mJ.s^{-1}

This problem requires our calculation to undergo the dimensional analysis approach. In this approach, you disregard the actual quantity and focus on the units of measurement. This helps us know the units of our final answer. 

First, let's ignore 16. Let's focus on converting the units kPa-mm³/s to mJ/s. The unit kPa stands for kiloPascals which is 1000 times greater than 1 Pa. The unit mJ, on the other hand, stands for millijoules, which is 1000 times lesser than Joules. The relationship between the two is that, Joules = Pa × m³. But since we want our final answer to be mJ, that would be equal to Pa×mm³. Since the original unit already contains mm³, all we have to do is convert kPa to Pa. 

16 kPa-mm³/s * (1000 Pa/1 kPa) = 16,000 Pa-mm³/s

Since Pa-mm³ is equal to mJ, the final conversion yields to 16,000 Pa-mm³/s.

Write the step by step process of digestion in ruminants using 4 square method.
Vaselesa [24]

The digestion process in Ruminants begins by chewing and swallowing their food.

<h3>What are ruminants?</h3>

A ruminant is any herbivorous animal that has a stomach with four compartments, which are tasked with acquiring nutrients from plant-based food by fermenting it prior to digestion.

The digestion process in Ruminants begins by chewing and swallowing their food. Ruminants do not completely chew the food they eat, but just consume or gulp as much they can and then swallow the food. This is actually an adaptation by which these animals have evolved to spend as little time as possible feeding so that they are not hunted down by any predators while they are eating.

As mentioned earlier, the stomach of these Ruminants is divided into 4 chambers – rumen, reticulum, omasum, and the abomasum.

The process of digestion begins with the first two chambers of the stomach, the rumen and reticulum by softening the ingested matter. Later the microbes present in the rumen produces the cellulase enzymes required to digest the cellulose.

Once the plant fibres have been broken down to provide vitamins, proteins, and other organic acids, the nutrients are absorbed into the animal’s bloodstream.

Coarse plants are sent further into the next chamber for further digestion. Here is where the further bacterial action takes place and the food is formed into soft chunks called the cud.

This cud produced is regurgitated back into the animal’s mouth where it can be chewed again. The saliva of the cow greatly aids in digesting the cud.

After chewing, the food bypasses the two chambers of the stomach and directly enters the third chamber. The walls of the third chamber mash and compact the food molecules further, and then pass it to the fourth chamber – the abomasum.

The final digestion in the stomach is carried by the abomasum and then passed to the intestine.
