protein digestion begins when you first start chewing. there are two enzymes in your salvia called amylase and lipase. they most break down carbohydrates and fats.

Answer:

The correct answer would be

  • They are vase-shaped
  • Their tentacles trail down from their mouth.

Coral polyps are small, soft-bodied organisms mainly belong to the phylum Cnidaria.

They have a vase-shaped body that is, their body is cylindrical in shape which is elongated at the axis.

They remain attached to the rocks present on the floor of the sea.

They have tentacles which help in capturing the food.

The tentacles surround the mouth which opens into a central cavity filled with fluid.

"Now that you have come up with an equation that describes the relationship between amounts of different nucleotide bases in DNA
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

G - 21%

T - 29%

A - 29%

Explanation:

Nucleotide bases in DNA are complementary. Adenosine (A) binds to Thymine (T) while Cytosine (C) binds to Guanine (G). Hence the composition of A in DNA is the same as that of T; and that of C is the same as that of G.

From the information given, C is 21%

Therefore G is also 21% of the genome as  C is bound to G, the therefore are the same proportion.

C and G make up 42% of the genome (that 21% + 21%).

The remaining 58% (100%-42%) is made up of A + T

Similarly the proportion of A is equal to that of T,

Hence A is 29% (half of 58%) and T is 29%.

kipiarov [429]

Answer: diffusion

Explanation:

Diffusion is the over all movement of molecules from one region where it is in high concentration to another another region where it is in lower concentration.

This movement continues until the concentration of both regions are equal. Smaller non polar molecules are able to diffuse through the lipid bilayer of the membrane .

Movement through the membrane is dependent on the concentration gradient, that is the difference in concentration between the two areas.

It is also dependent on the size of the molecule
