Answer:

Gastric epithelium.

Explanation:

Peptic ulcers are defined as sores in inner lining of stomach due to break in gastric epithelium. Bacterial infections are major causative agents for peptic ulcers.

Our stomach is protected from gastric acid by the cells of epithelial lining (mucosa) that produces bicarbonate ions, which can neutralize gastric acid.

Some bacteria increase production of acid, which damage tissues of epithelial lining. It leads to inflammation of stomach lining and cause peptic ulcers.

Thus, the correct answer is 'gastric epithelium.'

</span><span>
Binary fission is a reproduction process wherein one cell divides asexually into two cells forming two daughter cells. into In binary fission, the chromosome is being replicated in which the resultant prokaryote is exactly the same copy of the parental prokaryote which means to say that there is no chance for genetic diversity. However, prokaryotes can still share or even exchange genes through the mechanisms of  transformation, transduction and conjugation.</span>

jeka94

Humans have an interdependent relationship with other organisms just like organisms in an ecosystem are interdependent.

<h3>How are organisms interdependent?</h3>

To be interdependent means that the involved parties are mutually dependent i.e. they are reliant on one another.

Living organisms in their natural habitat are dependent on one another for food, space, mate and other resources.

However, humans are also interdependent on other organisms for resources like food, raw materials. For example, we eat plant and flesh derived from other organisms.

How does a chemical equation support the law of conservation of matter?
alukav5142 [94]
Matter cannot be created or destroyed in chemical reactions. This is the law of conservation of mass. In every chemical reaction, the same mass of matter must end up in the products as started in the reactants. Balanced chemical equations show that mass is conserved in chemical reactions.
