Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

Chemical digestion in the small intestine relies on the activities of three accessory digestive organs: the liver, pancreas, and gallbladder.

The digestive role of the liver is to produce bile and export it to the duodenum.
The gallbladder primarily stores, concentrates, and releases bile.
The pancreas produces pancreatic juice, which contains digestive enzymes and bicarbonate ions, and delivers it to the duodenum.

The liver, pancreas, and gallbladder are considered accessory digestive organs, but their roles in the digestive system are vital.

How do the process of DNA replication and the laws of inheritance help cells and individuals pass on their

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer/Explanation:

DNA replication doubles each chromosome, meaning the cell can pass on DNA to daughter cells - the duplicated DNA is divided equally between the two new cells formed from the parent.

The laws of inheritance are:

1) The Law of Dominance: An organism with alternate forms of a gene, called alleles, will always display the form that is dominant, masking the recessive trait.

2) The Law of Segregation: In a diploid genome, like most eukaryotes, each trait is defined by a pair of genes (alleles). Each allele is randomly passed on to the gametes so that each gamete only contains one allele. The offspring inherits one allele from each parent during the process of fertilization.

2) The Law of Independent Assortment: Genes for different traits are sorted independently from one another That is, the inheritance of one trait does not depend on the inheritance of another trait. so that the inheritance of one trait is not dependent on the inheritance of another.

Ecology and evolution are closely related, as are evolution and genetics. All have an impact on the world around us.

PtichkaEL [24]

Ecology is the science that studies the interaction between living beings and the environment in which they live.

<h3>How can I help with conservation?</h3>

Buy recycled paper avoiding the death of more trees
Have a recycling bin for paper, plastic, metal and glass, to reduce the environmental damage in waste and for the waste to be reused
Recycle toner and ink cartridges from empty printers, to avoid polluting rivers and streams.
If possible buy remanufactured cartridges, avoiding environmental impact
Recycle old newspapers, avoiding the death of more trees.

<h3>What is the evidence for evolution?</h3>

Anatomy. Species may share similar physical features because those features were present in a common ancestor (homologous structures).
Molecular biology. DNA and genetic code reflect the common ancestry of life

With this information, we can conclude that Ecology is concerned with the living beings on the planet and their relationships with each other and with the environment.
