Answer:

1. Mouth

4. Stomach

Explanation:

  • The mouth and the stomach are both sites of mechanical and chemical digestion of food.

Digestion in the Mouth:

  • In the mouth, the teeth grind and mash the food into smaller pieces that aid in proper digestion.
  • Saliva produced in the mouth contains the carbohydrate digesting enzyme, salivary amylase.

Digestion in the Stomach:

  • In the stomach, protein is mainly digested by the combined action of low pH, protease enzymes like pepsin and the contraction of the muscles of the stomach.
  • Pepsin breaks down protein in the presence of stomach acids.
  • The muscles of the stomach contract and relax and aid in mixing the enzymes and acid together, consequently, aiding in digestion.

What is the function of the Earth's atmosphere?
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

its "C"

Explanation:

On our planet we can survive thanks to a layer of different composition of gases that surrounds the whole Earth. This layer remains on Earth thanks to gravity. It is the earth's atmosphere, and it is difficult to determine exactly its thickness, since the gases that make it up become less dense with height, until they practically disappear a few hundred kilometers from the surface.

The atmosphere fulfills various functions for life on the planet and without it we would not be able to have life as we know it.

Cell membranes perform all the following functions except—
vodka [1.7K]
Cell membranes do not make nutrients (or energy) for the cells. This is the function of the mitochondria by the electron transport chain, tricarboxylic acid cycle, and beta oxidation. The cell membrane is responsible in holding the cytoplasmic components of the cells. The cell membrane is also involved in substance regulation by acting as a semi-permeable membrane for simple diffusion as well as the site where carrier proteins are embedded for facilitated diffusion (not ATP requiring) and active transport (ATP requiring). The cell membrane is also involved in cell to cell recognition because receptors are also embedded in the cell membrane.
