Alexeev081 [22]

Answer: The correct answer is Enzymes.

Process of digestion involves the breakdown of large complex molecules ( like carbohydrates, and proteins) present in the food into smaller soluble molecules ( like glucose and amino acids) that can be absorbed by bloodstream and transported to various body organs.

Protein in the stomach is broken down into amino acids with the help of enzyme called as pepsin ( a protease). It is an endo-peptidase that is produced in the stomach and helps in the digestion of proteins at acidic pH of the stomach ( 1.5 to 2).

Which phrases describe air pressure? Select three options.
9966 [12]
  • decreases as altitude increases
  • results from a column of air pushing on an area
  • decreases due to fewer air particles pushing down

Pressure is the force exerted, by a substance, per unit area.

Explanation:

Pressure is given by the formulae;

P = F/ A

Whereby;

P = pressure

F = Force

A = area

Remember that ..

F = Ma

Whereby;

F = Force

M = mass

a = acceleration

Therefore pressure can be given as;

P = Ma / A

The mass of the above column of a substance multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity = pressure exerted by the substance.
