The portal vein directs blood from the GI tract to the liver. The liver is the first organ to receive nutrients that are absorbed from the GI tract. It is the ‘gatekeeper’ and is responsible for filtering out possible toxins before they reach delicate tissues such as the brain.

Energy travels from the sun to the producer which is like a plant of some sort. Then, the energy from the plant goes to the primary consumer which is the first set of consumers, in this example, it will be the minnow. Other consumers include secondary consumers, in this case the frog, quaternary consumers, like a snake that would eat the frog, and tertiary consumers, like an eagle that would eat the snake. Energy is passed to each organism from the organism before it in the food chain.

*Lungs
and limbs - Animals on the sea need to adapt when they look for their preys on

Answer:
Chitin, Cellulose and Peptidoglycan (B, C and D)
Explanation:
Both chitin and cellulose are composed mainly of glucides, bound by glycosidic bonds of the Beta 1-4 type. This is largely why they cannot be digested by most non-herbivorous animals.
As for peptidoglycans, it is a net. It is a molecular framework present in bacteria that has β1-4 and α1-4 bonds in different proportions.
