The muscles of the stomach aid in _____ digestion

Biology

As food reaches the end of the esophagus, it enters the stomach through a muscular valve called the lower esophageal sphincter. The stomach secretes acid and enzymes that digest food. Ridges of muscle tissue called rugae line the stomach. The stomach muscles contract periodically, churning food to enhance digestion.Mar 4, 2016

1. What interactions affect protons in an atomic nucleus? More than one answer may be correct.
irga5000 [103]
A=
In the nature there are four fundamental forces, namely nuclear force, electromagnetic force, weak force, and gravitational force. These forces are arranged with respect to their strengths in descending order.
The nuclear forces are of greater strengths.
These bind up the protons and the neutrons in an atom together. The nuclear forces are strong enough to combine the quarks that form the nucleons.

B= The weak forces of the interaction are the forces that are short ranged and cause the instability of the nucleus. These are 1/10^5 times of the nuclear forces.

C= The electromagnetic forces are the forces that which combine the atoms and the molecules that intend form the ordinary matter. The electromagnetic forces are 1/10^5times of the nuclear forces.

D= The gravitational forces are 1/10^5 times of the nuclear force.

Which value is being measured in the columns labeled fraction remaining and percentage remaining
ahrayia [7]

<u>Question</u>:

Which value is being measured in the columns labeled "Fraction remaining” and "Percentage remaining”?

  1. years of decay
  2. quantity of energy
  3. number of stable atoms
  4. amount of material that has not decayed

<u>Answer</u>:

"Amount of material that has not decayed" being measured in the columns labelled "Fraction remaining” and "Percentage remaining”

<u>Explanation</u>:

The table shown below having explains about the half life , the  amount of sample in both fraction and percentage. The first column named half life elapsed tells  us the the number of half life that that is completed. Half life is the time taken for an element to reduce or decay into half of its initial amount.

The fraction remaining column gives the amount of sample that is left behind  after the half life particular number of half life has completed.  similarly the percentage remaining column gives the amount of sample in percentage. For example, the 5th row tells us that after 4 half life is over \frac{1}{16} th of the sample remained. In percentage it is 6.25%
