Biology

3 0

Answer:

They have a gizzard to grind the food.

Explanation:

Birds cannot chew since they have no teeth. However, the beak allows them to split very large seeds or swallow them directly.

For their digestion they have a stomach where digestion enzymes are released. Also they have a gizzard that is an organ that grinds the food mechanically. This gizzard usually has small stones inside that were previously ingested and that helps to digest the food.

ira [324]
A little percent of it (around 9.5%)  goes to recycling while a large percent goes to the landfill, ocean and beaches, where it will take years for the plastic to decompose and leak pollutants into the soil and water, <span>threatening the health and safety of marine life.  There is a new recycling method where the plastics are shredded and mix with the other components to make hollow blocks for construction of structures.</span>
