Describe the passage of a meal containing bread through your digestive system

Biology
1 answer:
Alex777 [14]3 years ago
7 0

Before your food passes from the mouth and down your esophagus, salivary amylase, an enzyme in saliva, begins to digest the starch in your bread. That is the start of chemical digestion. ... The passage of the bolus through the esophagus to the stomach occurs by peristalsis, a series of wave-like muscle contractions.

In maize, a dominant allele A is necessary for seed color, as opposed to colorless (a). Another gene has a recessive allele wx t
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

  • 1/2 Aa Wx wx (colored seeds, normal starch)
  • 1/2 aa Wx wx (colorless seed, normal starch).

Explanation:

  • A (colored seed) is dominant over a (colorless)
  • Wx (normal starch) is dominant over wx (waxy)

Both loci are independent.

A <em>Aa WxWx </em>individual was test crossed (crossed with a homozygous recessive <em>aa wxwx</em> individual).

  • The homozygous recessive can only produce <em>a wx </em>gametes.
  • The dihybrid individual can produce two types of gametes, all of them with the same frequency because the genes segregate independently: 1/2 <em>A Wx </em>and 1/2<em> a Wx </em>

<u>The possible offspring resulting from the combination of those gametes is:</u>

  • 1/2 Aa Wx wx (colored seeds, normal starch)
  • 1/2 aa Wx wx (colorless seed, normal starch).

Which connective tissue disorder is characterized by insoluble collagen being formed and accumulating excessively in the tissues
Maurinko [17]
Answer; 
Scleroderma

Scleroderma is a connective tissue disorder that is characterized by insoluble collagen being formed and accumulating excessively in the tissues. 

Explanation; 
This disorder features thickened skin that can involve scarring, blood vessel problems, varying degrees of inflammation and pain, and is normally associated with an overactive immune system. It is regarded as an autoimmune condition, as the body produces too much collagen, causing the skin and connective tissue to thicken.

Answer:

Staining

Explanation:

In order to make cells or certain features of a cell more visible under the microscope, scientists use specific stains. These stains bind to certain features in a cell, allowing better distinction. For example, iodine is a common stain used in plant cells, as it turns blue/black in the presence of starch, which is abundant in plant cells.
