Compounds are made up of elements.
Elements are the ones we pull straight out from the periodic table.
For example:
H2O, HCl, NaCl, NaOH --> these are all compounds
H, N, B, Ne, Na, Cl, O, K --> these are all elements.
Gastric inhibitory peptide (GIP) a digestive hormone is secreted when fats and carbohydrates, especially glucose, enter the small intestine.
- A member of the secretin family of hormones, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide is an inhibitory hormone.
- It is sometimes referred to as gastric inhibitory polypeptide or stomach inhibitory peptide.
- The enteroendocrine K-cells, which are widespread in the small intestine secrete GIP.
- The hormone gastric inhibitory polypeptide, which is released by intestinal mucosal cells, prevents the stomach from producing hydrochloric acid.
- Additionally, it improves the islets of Langerhans' beta cells' ability to secrete insulin, which results in a considerable increase in blood insulin concentrations following oral glucose delivery.

Answer:
The energy is mostly released as heat through the dog's activities; the nutrients either become part of the dog's body or are released to the ecosystem as wastes like urine, feces, and exhaled gases.
Explanation:
- The food that is consumed by an organism is digested and the nutrients obtained from the food are partly absorbed by the digestive system and assimilated and stored into the body and the nutrients that are not absorbed are released in the form of feces.
- The chemical energy obtained from the food is released in the form of heat through the activities that are done by the dog.
The correct answer is: B) flesh of another animal
The shape of teeth is tightly connected with the food that animal eats.Examples:
• Herbivores (plant eaters) have flat teeth specialized for the grass chewing.
• Carnivores (flesh eaters) have long and sharp teeth for meat cutting.
• Omnivores (eat meat and plants) such as humans have various types of teeth with different functions.
There are four main types of teeth: incisors (at the front, sharp for cutting), canines ( to grip and tear food), premolars (flat surface for food crushing), molars (the biggest with flat biting surface, to chew).
