Hello Debambarish2013!

<span>Fats are present in the form of large globules in the small intestine. The small intestine receives the secretions from the liver and the pancreas. The bile salts (from the liver) break down the large fat globules into smaller globules so that the pancreatic enzyme lipase can easily act on them. This is referred to as emulsification of fats. This process takes place in the small intestine.

Carl is counting the number of bones in a human skeleton. He counted 198 bones. There are actually 206 bones in the human body.
vazorg [7]

Answer: The percent error is 3.88%

Explanation:

Percent error = [(Actual bones - Counted bones)/ Actual bones] X 100%

= [(206 - 198)/206] X 100%

= [8/206] X 100%

= 3.88%

Thus, Carl's percent error is 3.88%

Select which of the following is not an accurate portrayal of mutations.
Shtirlitz [24]
D. Mutations will always impact an individual on some level

Most of these seem accurate or at least close to being accurate on how mutations affect genes however, some mutations won’t always impact an individual because some mutations are so minor. But this is my best guess
