Answer: Option A

Explanation: The food that we eat is absorbed by the body to get energy. Food consists of nutrient that is absorbed to get energy for performing the various function of the body.

The food that is eaten follows a particular path to be absorbed by the body. It travels through the mouth and via esophagus to the stomach.

The food is broken down into small particles to be absorbed by the small intestine and large intestine. The macro and micro nutrients are absorbed by the small intestine and a small portion of it is absorbed by the large intestine.

So, if a patient is having difficulty in absorbing nutrients this indicates that he is having problem in intestines.

1. Why must DNA have thymine instead of Uracil? 2. Why is it necessary for RNA to have uracil instead of thymine?
Zigmanuir [339]
Thymine has a methyl group and is better suited for the storage property of the DNA molecule as it is far more stable compared to Uracil.
RNA contain Uracil instead of thymine so as to make differentiation of RNA molecule from DNA molecules easier.

Circulación. El aparato circulatorio de los artrópodos es abierto. Es decir, no existe un circuito cerrado de vasos por el que circule un líquido diferenciado, lo que propiamente se podría llamar sangre.
