After the digestion of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins in duodenum, the digested nutrients are absorbed in the ileum.
Ileum is a section of the small intestine, after duodenum.
Food is absorbed by diffusion and active transport. Villi on the walls of the ileum helps this process, since it can increase its surface area and provide a good blood supply, thus increase the rate of absorption.
Note that water can also be absorbed in the large intestine, those water absorbed there are the ones that cannot be absorbed in the ileum.
However, not all water is absorbed as we can notice that faeces are wet.
ANSWER: compared to PH3 a PH1 would be more acidic than a PH3
Explanation: so on the PH scale 1 is acid 7 is neutral and 14 is alkaline. PH1 would be stomach acid, a PH3 would be vinegar.
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
The sensory information that is entering from the dorsal ramus of the body is most likely to come from exteroreceptors on the back.
Exteroreceptor are the different afferent nerve endings that has the ability to sense stimuli which originates from the outside of the body such vibration, sound, pain, touch et cetera.
These receptors carry signals from the external back to the dorsal ramus of the spinal cord.
The correct answer is 1, tight junctions. Tight junctions are the junctions seal adjacent epithelial cells in a narrow band just beneath their apical surface. They contain a network of claudins and other proteins. They limit the passage of molecules and ions through the space between cells.
