Answer:B The nervous system controls the speed at which food moves through the digestive system

Explanation:During digestion,the nervous system helps to control the actions that takes place.they stimulate digestive juices and the muscles of digestive organs.

The extrinsic nerves comes to the digestive tract from the brain and the spinal cord.they release chemicals; acetylcholine and adrenaline.

Which feature is shared by protists, fungi, plants, and animals but is lacking in bacteria?
ANTONII [103]
B, a nucleus. Nuclei are membrane-bound organelles inside eukaryotic organisms. Eukaryotes are protists, fungi, plants, and animal cells. A bacteria is not a eukaryote, it is a prokaryote, so it does not have the membrane-bound structure of the nucleus.

Be careful, though, bacteria still have DNA. It is simply located in the center of the cell and is not encased in a membrane.
