Answer:

The correct answer is- digestion, absorption, transport, elimination

Explanation:

The process of digestion starts from the mouth with the help of enzymes called salivary amylase present in our saliva. The food then passes through the esophagus to the stomach.  

In the stomach, the food is broken down in small fragments by churning movement which mixes digestive enzymes and food to form chyme.  

This chyme is passed to the small intestine where several enzymes from the liver and pancreas digest the food in smaller particles and absorb these particles in the blood. Therefore absorption takes place in the small intestine.

Then the solid waste material left behind after absorption is transported from small intestine to the large intestine and from large intestine waste is eliminated out of the body.

Therefore the correct order are: digestion → absorption→ transport→ elimination.

What is true concerning hemoglobin.
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

A protein molecule present in the RBCs, which helps in the transportation of oxygen from the lungs to the different parts of the body and brings back carbon dioxide, that is, collected from different parts of the body back to the lungs is known as hemoglobin.  

The general features of hemoglobin are that it comprises four molecules of protein in the form of globulin chains. In adults, the molecules of hemoglobin comprise two beta-globulin chains and two alpha globulin chains, while in infants and fetuses, the beta chains are least found, and is substituted by two gamma chains.  

Each globulin chain comprises an essential iron-containing compound porphyrin, which is termed as heme. Together both iron and heme play an essential role in circulating oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood. This iron gives the red appearance to the blood.
