Answer:

The correct optios are: digestion (c), eliminated from the body as wastes (d), epiglotis (b), esophagus (b), liver (d)

Explanation:

We called digestion to the process by which particles composing food are break in small particles that can be absorbed into blood. Some structures can be digested and absorbed but other ones (such as cellulose for example) can not and are eliminated from the body as wastes.

Epiglotis is a cartilaginous structure that separates respiratoty system from digestive system, avoiding the passage of food to respiratory sytem.

Esophagus is a muscular tube that constitutes the conection between pharynx and stomach.

Liver is an important organ that segregates bilis (between other functions) which is esential for digestion of fat. Bilis can be stored in gall bladder after its production in liver.

What is the unique structural modification in lymphatic capillaries that increases their permeability?
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Minivalves

Explanation:

Lymphatic capillaries are so much permeable that some researchers thought that they are open from one side but scientists found that this permeability is due to some structural modification.

The endothelial cell that forms the lymphatic capillaries wall are not packed tightly and overlap each other very loosely which makes easy openings in the structure called mini valves.

When the pressure of fluid in interstitial space is high then the mini valves become open and allow the fluid to enter the lymphatic capillary. So mini valves are the unique structural modification that increases permeability in lymphatic capillaries.

What is placebo and why is it used in some experiments
Hoochie [10]
A placebo is kind of a "fake" treatment but, typically the person receiving a placebo is unaware it has no medical effect on them so they believe they are feeling better. For example, a lot of anxiety meds are placebos and people don't know so their brain tricks them into thinking they are feeling less anxious. This could be used in experiments where a group believes they are affected to see how they react
