Answer:

It consists of the mouth, or oral cavity, with its teeth, for grinding the food, and its tongue, which serves to knead food and mix it with saliva; the throat, or pharynx; the esophagus; the stomach; the small intestine, consisting of the duodenum, the jejunum, and the ileum; and the large intestine, consisting of the cecum, a closed-end sac connecting with the ileum, the ascending colon, the transverse colon, the descending colon, and the sigmoid colon, which terminates in the rectum. Glands contributing digestive juices include the salivary glands, the gastric glands in the stomach lining, the pancreas, and the liver and its adjuncts—the gallbladder and bile ducts. All of these organs and glands contribute to the physical and chemical breaking down of ingested food and to the eventual elimination of nondigestible wastes.

Which is not a function of the kidneys?

NikAS [45]

Answer:

D. They release waste into the bloodstream.

Explanation:

Kidneys are the primary organs of the excretory system. Their primary function is to remove the metabolic waste from the blood and release it out of the body in the form of urine. The nitrogenous waste, drugs, uric acid, and other metabolic waste products are removed from blood in kidneys.

Hence, kidneys do not release the waste into the bloodstream, rather release them out of the body and filter the blood.

Breeding livestock is graded "superior," "average," and "inferior" on the same traits as slaughter animals. In a 50-word paragra

BaLLatris [955]

Livestock producers and breeders rank livestock on their ability to produce high quality, efficient breeding animals and market-worthy offspring.

To be able to effectively evaluate breeding and market animals is of vital economic importance for the animal markets. The same traits used to evaluate high-grade slaughter animals are also important in the grading of breeding stock.

When we judge livestock we classify them as:

Superior livestock
Average livestock
Inferior livestock

We are looking for the most desirable traits to fit our particular market and genetic needs. The "Livestock Judging Manual" indicates that some of the most prevalent traits necessary to score a better rating are:

Live weight
Fat depth
Muscling

and many more. The most important of which is muscling given that an animal with more muscle will produce more desirable meat for the average consumer, and therefore can be sold at higher prices.

What happens when there is too much of one type of molecule inside the cell

Jet001 [13]

I am guessing that the molecule type will try to take over the cell OR it will excrete to much waste for the cell to handle and the cell will die.

I am just guessing, but I hope this helps
