Answer:

insertion mutation

Explanation:

a substitution mutation only changes one thing, but an insertion mutation changes everything after the point of insertion. The insertion pushes everything back, causing a chain effect

lets say i have the sentence "I have a dog"

a substitution mutation might change it to "K have a dog", seems kinda bad, but not as bad as "K Ihav e ado g" (result of insertion of K at beginning)

In order to improve fat digestion, large fat globules must first be dispersed into smaller droplets in a process called ________
Ludmilka [50]

In order to improve fat digestion, large fat globules must first be dispersed into smaller droplets in a process called <u>emulsification.</u>

<h3 /><h3>What is emulsification in the digestive system?</h3>

Fat emulsification is the process of increasing the surface area of fats in the small intestine by grouping them into small clusters. Large lipid globules are split up into a number of smaller lipid globules. In the chyme, these tiny globules are widely dispersed rather than aggregating into larger groups. Hydrophobic compounds include lipids. Bile salts, are present in bile and have both hydrophilic and hydrophobic sides.

Due to the fact that lipases can only effectively act on lipids when they are broken down into small aggregates, emulsification is crucial for the digestion of lipids. The lipids are converted into fatty acids and glycerides by lipases.

What can I draw for an abiotic part of an ecosystem?
adelina 88 [10]
<span>An ecosystem involves both the biological (plants, animals, human beings) and non-biological (land, water, soil, and atmosphere) community which interacts as a system. More importantly, the living things are very dependent on the abiotic community since it cannot survive by itself. Every animal, plant and human needs the primary physiological needs of water, food and shelter provided by the abiotic system.  

POND
ROCKS
MOUNTAINS
