The oral phase of swallowing is the first stage of deglutition, and it is a voluntary process. It is also commonly known as the buccal phase. It involves the contraction of the tongue to push the bolus up against the soft palate and then posteriorly into the oropharynx by both the tongue and the soft palate.

nevsk [136]
Protein synthesis occurs in the cytoplasm, specifically in the ribosomes. Proteins that are meant to be excreted, such as in the pancreas, are produced in the rough endoplasmic reticulum which is a membrane studded with ribosomes. In organs that primarily function to produce and secrete proteins, there will be a larger rough endoplasmic reticulum with more ribosomes.

How would a geologist use absolute dating to determine the age of sedimentary layers? by dating the age of intrusions and extrus
ad-work [718]

Answer:

Radiometric dating methods

Explanation:

Absolute dating is the process of determining an age on a chronological or specified time scale in which events occurred in archaeology and geology. Absolute dating can be determined by using properties of the atoms that make up materials.

The most common method of absolute dating uses by geologists is radiometric dating methods which is based on the natural radioactive decay of certain elements such as potassium and carbon found in the rocks. By comparing the ratio of parent isotope with a known half-life to daughter product in the rock, the age of the rock can be determined.

The carbon-14 isotope is used in radiocarbon dating, but is only useful for measuring recently formed rocks in the geologic past. The decay of Potassium-40 isotope known as potassium-argon (K-Ar) method allows dating of materials that up to 1,000 billion years old.
