dybincka [34]4 years ago

Answer:

The correct sequence of events are: Ingestion - Digestion - absorption - assimilation

Explanation:

Ingestion: It is the process of taking either solid or liquid food through mouth or oral cavity.

Digestion: It includes the digestive system which consists of alimentary canal and the associated glands. These glands help in the digestion of food. Alimentary canal starts with mouth and opens outside through anus. Complete digestion of food occurs in small intestine.

Absorption: Once the food is completely digested in small intestine it must be absorbed across the intestinal wall into the blood stream or lymph.

Assimilation: The absorbed substance then finally reaches the tissues which utilizes them for activity.

What name is given to a large network of neurons within the brainstem that is essential for maintaining wakefulness
kaheart [24]

Answer:

These are the Reticular Activating system

Explanation:

These are network of neurons that occupy lager areas of the  brainstem. They are located between the brain stem and the cortex.These neurons projected anteriorly into the hypothalamus, posteriorly into the thalamus to form the ascending RAS and emerged directly into the cortex.

Generally,the RAS is made up of 4 components.These are each made up of group of nuclei .The latter are   simultaneously activated by the lateral  hypothalamus,which cause the release of  neurotransmitters that  cause the modulatory effects produced by the  entire RAS

Their major function is the control of sleepiness and wakefulness in individuals.It does this with the interactions with a lot of neurotransmitters present in the brain.

Besides the above functions the RAS is also responsible for the control of focus, stability of muscles tone.
