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.

How do organisms get the energy they need
IRISSAK [1]
Hi there!

Great question!

There are different organisms on Earth and they all get energy differently.

For example, a plant gets its energy from the sun. The sun shines down on it, giving the plant energy to grow.

On the other hand, a wolf would get its energy from the food it eats. When the wolfs belly is full, it has more energy to run around and catch more of it!

Hope this helps! :D

An antibiotic that attacks the LPS layer would be expected to have a broad spectrum of activity, effective against Gram negative
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Lipopolysaccharides are substances that have both lipid and polysaccharide. LPS layer is the characteristic feature of gram-negative bacteria. The LPS layer is present in the outer membrane of the cell envelope of gram-negative bacteria. It is not found in Gram-positive bacteria.

Broad-spectrum drugs are the chemotherapeutic agents that are effective against several kinds of pathogens while the narrow spectrum drugs target only a limited type of microbes. Therefore, an antibiotic that attacks the LPS layer would be effective against Gram-negative bacteria only which in turn makes it a narrow-spectrum drug.

Umnica [9.8K]
Tapeworms are known to feed off of their hosts to complete their life cycle. This type of symbiotic relationship is called parasitism. Parasitism is defined as the type of symbiotic relationship wherein only one of the two interacting organisms benefit, at the latter organism's expense. Parasites could either be found inside or outside the host's body. Tapeworms are internal parasites.
