Explanation:

  1. In mechanical digestion, the teeth grind food and break it in to smaller parts.
  2. Churning and the enzyme pepsin break down protein in the stomach.
  3. The pancreas releases the enzymes trypsin and chymotrypsin.
  4. Trypsin and chymotrypsin act on the proteins to break them down in the duodenum.
  5. Amino acids are absorbed by the capillaries in the jejunum.
  6. Amino acids enter the bloodstream and are circulated throughout the body.

Further Explanation:

Food is chemically and mechanically broken down into into smaller particles. This begins in the mouth, where food is mechanically crushed by the teeth, and mixed with saliva to allow water based enzymes like lingual lipase to work;- it's then transported to the stomach via the esophagus. Next in the stomach the enzyme gastric lipase acts on lipids, breaking them up into their components.

In the stomach, the enzyme pepsin breaks proteins, like those found in salmon, into smaller peptides by splitting the peptide bonds holding the proteins together. In the stomach, the enzyme pepsin breaks proteins, into smaller peptides by splitting the peptide bonds holding the proteins together.

The duodenum processes these newly-formed peptide chains or polypeptides, into smaller ones, through the enzyme action of elastase, trypsin and chymotrypsin; these are produced in the pancreas. Peptidases convert these fragments into amino acids for absorption into the bloodstream via the small intestines.

After digestion, the process of absorption occurs within villi of the small intestine; this occurs within the jejenum. Villi are small finger-like projections from epithelial cells of the small intestine; due to the projections, they have increased surface areas for absorption. Absorption involves several processes such as:

  • endocytosis
  • passive diffusion
  • facilitated diffusion
  • active transport
  • secondary active transport (co transport)

The nutrients are then taken up into the bloodstream via capillaries, and circulated through the body

Question 2 (1 point) Question 2 Unsaved
Charra [1.4K]
Q2. The answer is <span>C. Gymnosperms.
</span>
The word 'Gymnosperms'<span> is derived from two greek words: 'gymnos' = naked and 'sperm' = seed. Literally, their seeds are naked, i.e. they </span>do not form inside an additional structure. Their seeds develop on the surface of scales modified to form cones. This group of plants <span>include pine trees, cycads, and cedar trees. 


Q3. The answer is </span><span>A. Angiosperms.

Angiosperms or flowering plants are seed-producing plants, just like Gymnosperms. Their seeds</span> form inside additional structures known as fruits. This group is the most diverse group of plants and include nearly 300,000 species. Angiosperms include <span>grasses, roses, maple trees, and many other plants with flowers.


Q4. The answer is </span><span>B. Lichen.

Lichen consists of hyphae (just like other fungi) that surround cells of </span><span>green algae or other photosynthetic organisms. This partnership between fungi and algae is known as mutualistic symbiosis. As in any other mutualistic symbiosis, both partners have benefits: fungi gain nutrients from algae and algae gain protection from fungi.
</span>

Q5. The answer is <span>C. Vertebrate.

Vertebrates are organisms with an</span><span> interior skeleton, or endoskeleton, and a backbone. Unlike vertebrates, invertebrates do not have a backbone or interior skeleton. The basic body plan of vertebrates includes vertebral column and/or notochord, the gastrointestinal tract below the notochord and the spinal cord above the notochord. Vertebrates include fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals.
</span>

Q6. The answer is <span>B. Invertebrate.

Invertebrates are organisms without an internal skeleton and backbone. The main difference between vertebrates and invertebrates is that vertebrates have backbone and internal skeleton and invertebrates lack in those structures. Invertebrates</span> include all animals that are not vertebrates and include about 97% of all animals. Some of them are <span>insects, sea anemones, and worms. 


Q7. The answer is </span><span>A. Bilateral Symmetry.

Bilateral symmetry </span><span>is symmetry around a single line. That means that only one plane divides an organism into two matching halves, left and right. Thus, this type of symmetry is also known as left-right symmetry. Word 'bilateral' comes from two Latin words: 'bi-' means 'two' and 'latero' means 'side', literally 'bilateral' = 'two sides'. Human beings are the example of organisms with bilateral symmetry.


Q8. The answer is </span><span>C. Asymmetry
</span>
Asymmetry means without symmetry. The word 'asymmetry' is derived from two Greek words: 'a-' = 'not' and 'symmetros' = symmetry, <span>commensurable. Not all animals are symmetric. There are some species that show asymmetry, such as some sponges and flatfish. 


Q9. The answer is </span><span>B. Radial Symmetry.

A symmetry around any point is radial symmetry. The body of radially symmetric organisms can be divided into equal parts about a central point and they have </span>no left or right side of the body. This type of symmetry is characteristic for sea stars, sea cucumbers, sea anemone, jellyfish, corals.

How do consumers obtain nitrogen from producers?
photoshop1234 [79]
The nitrogen in the air cannot be used by producers and consumers. It must be fixed or converted by bacteria in the ground into a useable form for plants called nitrates. Some plants called legumes (beans and clover) actually have bacteria in their roots.

Pigment molecules capturing photons in the chloroplast are organized in distinct structures called.
hjlf

Pigment molecules capturing photons in the chloroplast are organized in distinct structures called photosystems.

Photosynthetic pigments, which include chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and carotenoids, are light-harvesting molecules found in chloroplast thylakoid membranes. As previously stated, pigments and proteins are organized into complexes known as photosystems.

Photosystems are functional units for photosynthesis that are defined by specific pigment organization and association patterns. Their work is the absorption and transfer of light energy, which implies electron transfer. Photosystems are physically found in thylakoid membranes.

Chloroplasts are chlorophyll-containing organelles found in plant cells; they are essential for life on Earth because photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts. Proplastids give rise to chloroplasts, as do chromoplasts, leucoplasts, and other plastids. Light energy absorption and conversion into biological energy
