Answer:

The correct answer is herd immunity.

Explanation:

Herd immunity is the resistance against a contagious disease provided by the immune individuals which makes the major part of the population to few susceptible individuals in the community.  

So as most of the population is immune to the disease therefore that disease is not able to overpass these immune individuals and the susceptible person is protected indirectly from that contagious disease. By vaccinating most of the people against a disease we can gain herd immunity. So the right answer is herd immunity.

The remaining amounts of water, vitamins, and minerals are absorbed in the _.
alukav5142 [94]

The right answer is the large intestine.

The colon is part of the digestive system. Also called the large intestine, the colon follows the small intestine and forms the last part of the digestive system. It consists of several parts:

the caecum (from which leaves the vermiform appendage);

the ascending colon (right);

the transverse colon;

the descending colon (left);

the sigmoid colon;

and the rectum.

Its role is mainly to eliminate waste, absorb water, maintain the water balance and absorb certain vitamins. Chyle from the small intestine lacks almost all (90%) of the nutrients already absorbed by the digestive system. Chyle mixes in the colon with mucus and intestinal bacteria to form the feces. Bacteria capable of digesting the fibers form new molecules that the colon is then able to assimilate.
