Answer:
pancreas: secretes digestive enzymes into the small intestine
esophagus: the place where peristalsis takes place
small intestine: area of the digestive tract where most nuturients are absorbed
stomach: area of the digestive tract that follows the esophagus
large intestine: area of the digestive tract where mostly water is absorbed
Explanation:
peristalsis: so the food can move down towards your stomach, independently of gravity
pancreas: helps your stomach become the ultimate weapon to destroy anything that gets in there with its enzymes
small intestine: it is really really long -> more time to absorb nutrients
large intestine: like a farm of bacteria, the most exotic things that somehow made it through all the way here are finally destroyed -> also, water absorbtion: your body wants to retain as much as possible, this is how and where stool formation takes place
Answer:
b) glycolisis
Explanation:
Glycolisis precedes the Krebs cycle and can take place under aerobic or anaerobic conditions. Under aerobic condition, energy is directed towards the Krebs cycle in the form of piruvate and NADH to create more ATP. Under anaerobic conditions piruvate does not enter the Krebs cycle and it is oxidized to produce lactate.
