A fertilized egg, or zygote, takes about five days to reach the uterus from the uterine tube. As it moves, the zygote divides and develops into a blastocyst, with an inner mass of cells and a protective outer ring. The blastocyst attaches to the wall of the uterus and gradually implants itself into the uterine lining.
Answer:
Digestive system breakdown small proteins into amino acids by chemical digestion using enzymes (option B).
Explanation:
One of the main functions of the digestive system is to degrade food to facilitate its absorption at the intestinal level. This degradation has a mechanical phase, which includes chewing and contracting the stomach, and an enzymatic phase.
The enzymes that allow the breakdown of proteins into amino acids are called proteases, or peptidases. They are enzymes capable of breaking peptide bonds, obtaining at the end amino acids that can be more easily assimilated by the organism.
<em>The other options are not correct because </em><u><em>mechanical digestion</em></u><em> reduces the size of the digested food and mixes it with the gastric juices, but does not break the peptide bonds.</em>
The hydrochloric acid doesn't damage the stomach because the stomach has a protective lining on the inside walls to prevent damage. The stomach also releases a mixture of fluids that neutralize the hydrochloric acid.
