1.   The oxygen requirements of an animal cannot be met by the process of     diffusion as diffusion is a very slow process. To overcome this, multicellular organisms have specialized cells and tissues for performing various necessary functions of the body such as intake of oxygen and food.

2.   What criteria do we use to decide whether something is alive? Any visible movement such as walking, breathing, or growing is generally used to decide whether something is alive or not. However, a living organism can also have movements, which are not visible to the naked eye.

3.   An organism uses outside raw materials mostly in the form of food and oxygen. The raw materials required by an organism can be quite varied depending on the complexity of the organism and its environment.

4.   The various processes essential for maintaining life are nutrition, respiration, transportation, excretion, control and coordination.

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

Bone marrow.

Explanation:

Hematopiesis may be defined as the formation of the blood cells by the precursor stem cells. This process occurs in the bone marrow, thymus and liver.

The red blood cells are enucleated cells with the minimum span of around 120 days. These cells are processed and destroyed in the spleen. The iron is recovered from the red blood cells and sent again into the bone marrow for the production of new blood cells.

The bolus is liquefied in the ________ and it is now called chyme.
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

The options:

A) esophagus

B) stomach

C) small intestine

D) mouth

The CORRECT ANSWER IS B)

B) stomach

Explanation:

The digestive tract — often termed the gastrointestinal tract or alimentary canal — supplies the route via which foods passes through the body. In the course of this pathway, foods are digested into its constituents nutrients necessarily for absorption.

Digestion initially starts in the mouth, with enzymes in saliva dissolving carbohydrate (starch). In the course of chewing, the food is lubricated, a little bit of hear is used up, and less difficult to swallow and digest. The teeth and mouth aid conversion of each morsel of food to a bolus which flows right into the esophagus (“gullet”). In the course of chewing, taste buds stationed in the mouth gives pleasure to every mouthful — or to taste if not okay. Once the bolus is swallowed, it flows through the esophagus, it is kind of warmed and lubricated as it flows into the stomach.

Note:

The acidic condition of the STOMACH and the effect of gastric enzymes turns the bolus to CHYME, A LIQUEFIED MASS that is moved from the stomach to the small intestine.
