Answer and Explanation:
The transport and digestion of proteins is done by other proteins called enzymes. An example of this occurs in the biochemical digestion of proteins, where the enzyme pepsin promotes digestion, the breakdown of proteins into smaller pieces, through hydrolysis which is the breakdown of molecules with the use of water. These pieces of the protein are transported to the duodenum where they are digested again by the enzyme enterokinase.
Answer:
Excretion
Explanation:
The excretory system removes cellular wastes and helps maintain the salt-water balance in an organism. When cells break down proteins, they produce nitrogenous wastes, like urea. The excretory system serves to remove these nitrogenous waste products, as well as excess salts and water, from the body.
A nephron<span> is the basic unit of the kidneys and one of its functions is to filter substances in the blood and excreting urine. The correct order of where urine flows in a nephron is: </span><span>glomerulus, next to proximal convoluted tubule, then to loop of henle, then to distal convoluted tubule, lastly collecting duct. This process is important in homeostasis.</span>
