Explanation:
1) Chemical digestion begins in the mouth when food mixes with saliva. Saliva contains an enzyme (amylase) that begins the breakdown of carbohydrates.
2) The daily values are reference amounts (expressed in grams, milligrams, or micrograms) of nutrients to consume or not to exceed each day. The %DV helps you determine if a seving of food is high or low in a nutrient.
3) If a food has a daily value of 5% or less of a nutrient, it is considered to be low in that nutrient.
A food is a good source of a nutrient if the percent daily value is between 10% and 19%, If the food has 20% or more of the daily value, it is considered an excellent source of that nutrient.
4) As food passes through the GI tract, it mixes with digestive juices, causing large molecules of food to break down into smaller molecules. The body then absorbs these smaller molecules through the walls of the small intestine into the bloodstream, which delivers them to the rest of the body.
5) During digestion, your pancreas makes pancreatic juices called enzymes. These enzymes break down sugars, fats, and starches. Your pancreas also helps your digestive system by making hormones. These are chemical messengers that travel through your blood.
Glad to help!!!!
Refined carbohydrates tend to be much in lower in
fiber and vitamins than whole grains. These are complex carbs that have had fiber removed from them
leaving reproduce simple carbohydrates. These are rapidly absorbed causing a
blood sugar increase, which is followed by some crash. During the milling
process, the germ and bran is peeled and the grain's endosperm is crushed. The
final product becomes easier to gnaw and digest. The main reason manufacturers
process the grain is to lengthen shell life.
Answer:
C. the medulla oblongata, which is in contact with cerebrospinal fluid, monitors pH and uses this measure to control breathing.
Explanation:
The central chemoreceptors are located near the medulla inside the blood-brain barrier. When CO2 in cerebrospinal fluid increases, pH of the fluid lower (because CO2 becomes hydrated to carbonic acid). Change in pH stimulates the central chemoreceptors to activate respiratory centers which will increase the respiratory rate and depth of breathing.
Answer:
because it cools you off when its too warm and overall gives a sense of calm
