The mouth is the beginning of the digestive tract. In fact,digestion starts here as soon as you take the first bite of a meal. Chewing breaks the food into pieces that are more easily digested, while saliva mixes with food to begin the process of breaking it down into a form your body can absorb and use.

The mouth is the beginning of the digestive tract, chewing breaks down the food into pieces so it is easier to digest. The throat is the next destination for food, from here food travels to the esophagus. The esophagus is a muscular tube extending from the pharynx to the stomach. The stomach is a sac like organ with strong muscular walls. The stomach secretes acid and powerful enzymes that continues the process of breaking down food. When it leaves the stomach it is a liquid or paste. From there it moves to the small intestine. The small intestine is made up of three segments. The duodenum, jejunum, and ileum, the small intestine is a long tube loosely coiled in the abdomen.

Explain the connection between the oxidation of water in photosystem II of the light-dependent reactions and the synthesis of gl

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

Please find the explanation below

Explanation:

This question is describing the processes involved in photosynthesis. In the light-dependent stage of photosynthesis, specifically photosystem II (PSII), water is oxidized in a process called PHOTOLYSIS OF WATER. This process produces electrons and Hydrogen ions (H+). The electrons produced via this process is accepted by NAD+ to yield NADH.

The NADH is an electron carrier produced during the light-dependent stage and used to reduce 3-phsophoglycerate (PGA) produced in the light-independent stage to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P).

You observe a tiny structure under a microscope.what question would ask and then investigate to determine whether the structure

anygoal [31]

Answer:

The question to be asked an investigated when observing a structure under the microscope to determine whether it is living is if it has a nucleus if eukaryote or nucleoid if prokaryote.

Explanation:

The major organelle that must be present in all living cells is the nucleus or nucleoid and the protoplasm. The observation of the cell under the microscope will show the subcellular entity, nucleus/nucleoid, more pronounced than other organelles in the cell. The nucleus house the necessary information for the maintenance and reproduction, which is mainly the genetic information that dictates the translational protein products that are needed to build another aspect of the cells. Therefore, when such a tiny structure is placed under the light microscope under the view of oil immersion, the nucleus of the cell should be visible if it is a living structure.
