I am not too sure, but I believe it is because DNA is actually apart of living organisms along with Protein. So it can't only be compared with dead organisms but they can be living.

The place where an organism lives
starch into glucose
proteins into amino acids
lipids into fatty acids
There are many more examples of chemical digestion which takes place in the body. Chemical digestion is the breaking of larger more complex molecules into smaller, simpler ones that can be taken up by the cells more easily and readily by the use of chemical agents.. Chemical digestion is carried out primarily using biological molecules called enzymes. For example, the breakdown of starch is done by an enzyme known as amylase, which is present in the saliva.
The second statement is correct.
Answer: Pithecanthropus erectus.
Explanation:
Between 1891 and 1892 Eugène Dubois believed he had found the "missing link", hypothesized by Ernst Haeckel, when he discovered some loose teeth, a skull cap and a femur - very similar to that of modern man - in the excavations he was carrying out in Trinil, located on the island of Java, Indonesia. Homo erectus erectus was the first specimen of Homo erectus to be discovered. Dubois first named it <u>Anthropopithecus erectus and then renamed it Pithecanthropus erectus.</u> The name Homo erectus means in Latin "erect man", wich means, "standing man", whereas Pithecantropus erectus means "standing ape-man".
So, Dubois published these findings as Pithecanthropus erectus in 1894, more popularly known as "Java Man" or "Trinil Man". In the 1930s the German palaeontologist Ralpf von Koenigswald obtained new fossils, both from Trinil and from new locations such as Sangiran and in 1938 von Koenigswald identified a magnificent Sangiran skull as "Pithecanthropus". It was not until 1940 that Mayr attributed all these remains to the genus Homo (Homo erectus erectus).
