Answer: The correct answer is D. Ingestion, digestion, absorption, elimination.

Explanation-

Digestive system is an example of organ system, which acts upon the food (taken in by the organism) with the help of physical and chemical means so as to provide absorbable nutrients to meet the demands of the body.

In mammals, the digestive system includes the alimentary canal, which begins from mouth and ends with anus.

Food is first ingested by the mouth, then it is digested by different organs like mouth, stomach, and finally small intestine. The digested food is absorbed in the small intestine and the undigested food is eliminated from the body via anus in the form of fecal matter.

Thus, option D) is the best sequence of the function that digestive system performs.

The flagella are made of a protein called flagelin and its shape is helical, for the movement the flagellum has a system called an engine that is at the base and the wall is connected to the membrane. The motor system works driven by protons that move thanks to the action of the proteins of the base of the scourge., The rotation and movement of the scourge are not constant and depend on stimuli. The flagella are arranged differently according to the type of bacteria, there are peritic, lofotrica and polar flagella.
