Answer: food storage

Explanation:

The stomach is one of the important parts of the digestive system. It has three main functions to be performed in the animal or human body. It acts as a temporary storage organ for food which passed from the esophagus to the stomach, facilitates the breakdown and mixing of food components with the digestive juices by contraction and relaxation of the stomach muscles and finally aids in digestion of food.

Based on above description, the mechanical and chemical digestion of food by the stomach the other function includes the food storage.

Answer: Food storage

Explanation:

Stomach is a small pouch like structure which has the ability to store food temporarily.The storage of the food temporarily takes place in the stomach. The food that we eat reaches to the stomach by the help of food pipe.

Here, the food is stored until it is completely broken down into simpler form and enzymes act on them.

The food is then absorbed in the small intestine. But before this food is temporarily stored in the stomach where all the digestive juices and enzymes come to act on the food.

How does the modern theory of evolution explain the loss of vestigial organs? How does the modern theory compare with Lamarck's
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Modern theory of evolution explains that "organisms change over time as a result of changes in heritable physical or behavioral traits". Hence this change suggests the loss of vestigial organs.

Explanation:

  • Vestigial organ are those which do not have any function but is present in our body.
  • According to the modern theory the genetic and physical appearance changes along with the adaptation in environment by the organism.
  • So if the organ looses its function in order to sustain and adopt in the changing environment then they become vestigial and slowly disappear.
  • This is the common example for the Lamarck's theory of "use and disuse".

Describe a horse walks along a straight path it travels 3 m in one second 4 m in the next second and 5 m in the third second des
trasher [3.6K]

Answer: The motion is accelerated.


Step-by-step explanation: Given that the horse is walking along a straight line.

The horse travels 3 m in first second, so its speed is 3m/s.

In the next second, the horse travels 4 m, so its speed is 4 m/s.

In the third second, the horse travels 5 m, so its speed is 5 m/s.

Since the speed of the horse is increasing per second i.e., the speed in not constant, so the motion of the horse is accelerated.
