Before your food passes from the mouth and down your esophagus, salivary amylase, an enzyme in saliva, begins to digest the starch in your bread. That is the start of chemical digestion. ... The passage of the bolus through the esophagus to the stomach occurs by peristalsis, a series of wave-like muscle contractions.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
A. <em>18 hydrogen atoms </em>
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- <em><u>Alkanes are group of hydrocarbon that are saturated</u></em>. They are saturated in the sense that each carbon atom has maximum number of hydrogen atoms.
- <em><u>The homologous series of alkanes has a general formula of CₓH₂ₓ₊₂.</u></em>
- Therefore,<u><em> an alkane with 8 carbons will have; (2×8) +2 = 18 hydrogen atoms. </em></u>Thus, the formula of the hyrocarbon will be; C₈H₁₈.
The answer for the above question is the Avascular Necrosis. It occurs as an interruption in the blood flow within the bone resulting in the death of the hematopoietic cells, osteocytes, and marrow fat cells making up the bony structure. It is also called osteonecrosis or ischemic bone necrosis, which occurs when there is loss of blood to the bone, since the bone is a living tissue that needs blood, this interruption of blood supply will result to the death of the bone.
<span>invasive
Invasive species can threaten an ecosystem and the biodiversity of the organism that exist in the present environment when the invasive species increase rapidly in number.
</span><span>Exotic species are a threat to biodiversity because they alter the ecosystem of that area. They share food and habitat resulting in unbalanced ecosystem. Also, habitat destruction destroys the habitat of all the life forms in that area. </span>
