The answer is <span>Chemical digestion involves the breaking down of food with enzymes; </span><span>mechanical digestion is breaking down food by chewing and tearing with teeth. 

Mechanical digestion means breaking down food mechanically. By chewing and tearing with teeth, food breaks down into smaller parts and no enzymes are used. Chemical digestion means breaking down food in a chemical manner. This is achieved by secreting enzymes, which break down chemical bond between food molecules.</span>

 The Best answer to the question stated above is "Chemical digestion involves the breaking down of food with enzymes; 
mechanical digestion is breaking down food by chewing and tearing with teeth. "

Mechanical digestion prepares food for chemical digestion.  It involves the chewing and mixing food with saliva, churning of food in the stomach, segmentation of intestines rhythmic local constrictions of intestine, causes mixing improves absorption. On the other hand c<span>hemical digestion breaks down complex food molecules into chemical building blocks, enzymes secreted into alimentary canal lumen.</span>

What happens to the composition of the rock during physical weathering? Give an example.
Nutka1998 [239]
Physical Weathering in Nature. When water in a river or stream moves quickly, it can lift up rocks from the bottom of that body of water. When the rocks drop back down they bump into other rocks, and tiny pieces of the rocks can break apart. Many rock surfaces have small crevices on them.

How oil reservoirs are found
marta [7]

Answer:

A petroleum reservoir or oil and gas reservoir is a subsurface accumulation of hydrocarbons contained in porous or fractured rock formations. Such reservoirs form when kerogen (ancient plant matter) is created in surrounding rock by the presence of high heat and pressure in the Earth's crust.

Cultures of a bacterial strain were incubated in a standard incubator, in an anaerobic jar, and in a candle jar. After incubatio
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Facultative anaerobe

Explanation:

A facultative anaerobe is an organism that commonly grow in the presence of oxygen and use aerobic process to form ATP and to gain energy but they can also grow in the anaerobic condition by getting energy from fermentation process.

As anaerobic condition is not the perfect condition in which facultative anaerobe wants to grow because they prefer more to grow in aerobic conditions, therefore, their growth is not that much high in anaerobic condition as compared to aerobic conditions.  

Therefore they show moderate growth in the culture present in candle jar and anaerobic jar because oxygen is absent there but show heavy growth in the culture present in a standard incubator because of the presence of aerobic condition here.
