Answer: To complete the process of digestion after the food is ingested by mouth.

Explanation:

The food that we eat is ingested by mouth and here the mechanical degradation of food takes place. This breaks down the food into smaller pieces.

Mouth also contains the enzyme that is responsible for the digestion of starch.

Then the food from the mouth reaches the stomach where various types of digestive juices and enzymes are secreted to digested the food.

Hence, mouth and stomach must be near in the digestive system.

Which of these is the most likely impact of solar prominence on Earth?
svlad2 [7]

<span>Solar prominences themselves are of no concern because they are visible in the Hydrogen Alpha wavelength. They are anchored in place by magnetic fields. When these fields break or reconnect, it can send the plasma that makes up the prominence away from the sun. If one of these clouds impacts Earth, they are called CMEs or coronal mass ejections. Depending on the magnetic orientation of the cloud with respect to Earth's the CME can break down our magnetic field resulting in geomagnetic storms, aurorae, power grid fluctuations, and particle radiation near the poles, satellite single upset events, and radio blackouts. </span>
