Digestive juices break down food into the tiniest nutrient components. Proteins are broken down to amino acids; fats are broken down to fatty acids and glycerol; and carbohydrates are broken down into simple sugars for absorption of these vital nutrients. The animal diet needs carbohydrates, protein, and fat, as well as vitamins and inorganic components for nutritional balance. Digestive enzymes are enzymes that break down polymeric macromolecules into their smaller building blocks, in order to facilitate their absorption by the body.
Answer:
The answer is dominant.
Explanation:
The species in a community that is more abundant in number or biomass than any other is the <u>dominant</u> species, although not necessarily the species that has the greatest impact on the community. Dominant species, therefore, also have bigger niches and represent a big part of the competition with others.
Answer: The following statements <em>comparing respiration in fish and in mammals</em> is correct:
- The movement of the respiratory medium in mammals is bidirectional, but in fish it is unidirectional.
Explanation:
<u>Breathing </u>is the process by which living beings <em>exchange gases</em> with the external environment. It consists of the <u>entry of oxygen</u> into the body of a living being and the <u>exit of carbon dioxide</u> from it .
Active ventilation occurs if the animal produces the currents (of air or water) that flow to and from its respiratory membranes. It can be :
- Unidirectional. (air or water is pumped onto the respiratory membrane in only one direction).
- Bidirectional. (air or water is transported to the respiratory membrane and moves away from it through the same route like in the mammals).
D: it’s typically associated with cloudy weather and precipitation.
