Mechanical digestion is a process that begins the second the food particles reach the mouth. Teeth initiates mechanical digestion by grinding the food up which is a process called masticating, or simply just chewing.

Chemical digestion is a process when your saliva helps soften the food into a mush-type texture. Salivary amylase enzyme helps digesting the carbohydrates and mucus. This process helps the food particles become smaller to help you swallow.

After swallowing, the food goes through a process which requires chemical and mechanical treatment. Inside the stomach mechanical digestion will help churn the food bolus, whereas the chemical process will mix the bolus with digestive juices released by the stomach lining cells.

Hope this helps! :)

Mechanical digestion begins in the mouth as the food is chewed.(it prepares the food for chemical digestion) Chemical digestion involves breaking down the food into simpler nutrients that can be used by the cells. Chemical digestion begins in the mouth when food mixes with saliva. Saliva contains an enzyme (amylase) that begins the breakdown of carbohydrates.

When can liquid water remain above 100 C?

galben [10]

Well,

Typically, a substance is under 1 atmosphere of pressure, or 1 atm. More than 1 atm means there is more pressure than that which the earth's atmosphere exerts on an object near the surface of the earth.

If a liquid is given enough energy, and the atmospheric pressure remains constant, the liquid will turn into a gas. In the case of water, it will turn into water vapor at 100 °C. However, if you increase the pressure to greater than 1 atm, the water will be pushed together, keeping it liquid.

Light from a distant star has undergone a red shift. Which of these conclusions is correct about the star? Its pitch is increasi

nignag [31]

We've never discovered any way for wavelengths of light to
appear to get longer after they leave the source, except for
the Doppler effect ... when the observer and the source of
the light are moving apart.

Since we don't know any other way for it to happen, whenever
we see a star or a galaxy whose light is red-shifted, we conclude
that it is moving away from Earth.

If you think about this for a few seconds, there are two things
about it that should blow your mind:

#1). "Red-shifted" means that the wavelengths of the light we see
are longer than the wavelengths of the light that left the star.
How do we know what the wavelength was when it left the star ?

#2). Our whole picture of the "expanding universe" ... which is a
big part of the foundation that supports the whole picture of the
"big bang" ... rests on the red-shift of light from distant galaxies,
and our conclusion that they are all moving away from us.
If we ever discover a DIFFERENT way that light can become
red-shifted, that may be IT for the expanding universe and the
big bang, both. They may both be out the window.
