Answer:

some scientists which include Mendeleev and Neuton did published their papers and findings in Latin. but when Swedish scientist Carl Linnaeus started to devise a system of classifying organisms, he also gave different phyla and species Latin names, and this was because Latin was such a universal or acceptable form of scholar language in Europe.

In earlier days, Latin was considered the language of the scholars. That was the reason Latin was chosen for binomial nomenclature. As scholars of all languages learned Latin, just hearing the name would give the hearer an idea of what the organism is even if (s)he had not seen it in person.

Do the sugars in the apple juice need to be broken down by your digestive system before they can be utilized as an energy source

Georgia [21]

<span>The answer to this question is no, everything that is ingested needs to be metabolised, unless it is a medicine specifically formulated for oral adsorption directly into the bloodstream, or in this instance the energy source is a ketonic monosaccharide. Because it is so small and a simple structure, it can enter the blood barrier directly and the body can then use this as energy.</span>

LenKa [72]

Answer:

Hydrolysis

Explanation:

Hydrolysis is a reaction that needs water to breakdown macromolecules into simpler units.

Macromolecules are giant polymers made up of several repeating monomeric units.

These units are too complex for the body to digest and derive nutritional benefits from them.
During hydrolysis, the complex is broken down into monomers.
The monomeric units are absorbable and useful for the body.
