Answer:

When you eat, food passes from the throat to the stomach through the esophagus. A ring of muscle fibers in the lower esophagus prevents swallowed food from moving back up. These muscle fibers are called the lower esophageal sphincter

Answer:

stomach

Explanation: As a person swallows, food moves from the mouth to the throat, also called the pharynx. The upper esophageal sphincter opens so that food can enter the esophagus, where waves of muscular contractions, called peristalsis, propel the food downward to the stomach.

skad [1K]
General paradigms of species extinction risk are urgently needed as global habitat loss and rapid climate change threaten Earth with what could be its sixth mass extinction. Using the stony coral Lophelia pertusa as a model organism with the potential for wide larval dispersal, we investigated how the global ocean conveyor drove an unprecedented post-glacial range expansion in Earth׳s largest biome, the deep sea. We compiled a unique ocean-scale dataset of published radiocarbon and uranium-series dates of fossil corals, the sedimentary protactinium–thorium record of Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) strength, authigenic neodymium and lead isotopic ratios of circulation pathways, and coral biogeography, and integrated new Bayesian estimates of historic gene flow. Our compilation shows how the export of Southern Ocean and Mediterranean waters after the Younger Dryas 11.6 kyr ago simultaneously triggered two dispersal events in the western and eastern Atlantic respectively. Each pathway injected larvae from refugia into ocean currents powered by a re-invigorated AMOC that led to the fastest postglacial range expansion ever recorded, covering 7500 <span>km in under 400 years. In addition to its role in modulating global climate, our study illuminates how the ocean conveyor creates broad geographic ranges that lower extinction risk in the deep sea.</span>

2) How many solutions does the equation 4x + 2(x-5) = 3(2x - 4) have? Write down the final form as well as if it has no solution
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

0 = -2, hence no solution.

Explanation:

4x + 2(x-5) = 3(2x-4)

4x + 2x - 10 = 6x - 12

     6x - 6x = -12 + 10

               0 = -2

4. What factors might affect bone strength?
sattari [20]

Answer:

Bone strength is influenced by changes in the structure (size and shape) and composition [cortical (compact) bone, trabecular (sponge-like) bone, amount of cartilage] of the bone. 6 A high peak mass at a young age and the decrease of bone loss at a later age are two ways to reduce osteoporosis risk.

Not all macromolecules are created equal. Explain why you would get more energy from eating a cheeseburger than you would from e
natulia [17]

Answer: Carbohydrates are the body’s main source of energy. The fruit, vegetables, dairy, and grain food groups all contain carbohydrates.

Carbohydrates are the body’s main source of energy but Fats give you more energy. They help the body absorb certain vitamins. Many foods naturally contain fats, including dairy products; meats, poultry, seafood, and eggs; and seeds, nuts, avocados, and coconuts.

The burger would have more energy from eating it because it has a large amount proteins in it that can help your body. A apple can give you energy too because it is a carbohydrate but it wouldn’t be enough.
