Most of the wastes products from the processes in our body goes to the liver. It serves as a filter in our body. Hope this answers the question.</span>

Absorbe nutrientes por medio de micro vellosidades que recubren y aumentan la superficie de absorción
Likurg_2 [28]

Sobre la pregunta:

Cucigrama. Pregunta 1 vertical. Absorbe nutrientes por medio de micro vellosidades que recubren y aumentan la superficie de absorción

Answer:

Intestino delgado

Explanation:

El intestino delgado es el organi mas largo del tubo digestivo, pudiendo medir 7 metros de longitud y 3 cm de diametro. Se caracteriza por estar sumamente plegado sobre si mismo. La primera porcion, llamada duodeno, recibe secresiones de glándulas biliar y pancreática, y las mezcla con enzimas digestivas. Esta mezcla se encarga de degradar la comida y transformarla en sustancias solubles, como amino ácidos.

Es en el intestino delgado donde ocurre la absorción de nutrientes.  Las paredes intestinales estas cubiertas por microvellosidades que aumentan la superficie de absorción.  

Las microvellosidades son células que componene el epitelio columnar, y que extienden proyecciones hacia el lumen del organo.

Which of the following best describes the structure of a mushroom that you observe above the ground
Norma-Jean [14]

The right answer is Fruiting type

The sporophore (literally "spore carrier"), also called Fruitbodies, is the reproductive system of the so-called superior mushrooms. It is, in popular language, the organ of the "fructification" of the mushroom mycelium. It contains sporocysts (basid and asci) that differentiate in the hymenium and produce spores in various forms. It is present in the mushroom's cap.
