Answer:

Statements that are true are:

Arthritis and Alzheimer's are degenerative diseases (1).

Sunburn is a disease due to physical or environmental agents (4).

Explanation:

1. <u>Arthritis </u>is a degenerative joint process produced by inflammatory processes of various causes. It can be rheumatoid arthritis, produced by autoimmune disease or infectious arthritis due to the action of bacteria in the joint. The consequence of arthritis is osteoarthritis, or degeneration of joint cartilage.

The <u>Alzhaimer's disease</u> is a degenerative process of the nervous tissue, of uncertain cause, and characterized to affect the superior cerebral functions, mainly memory and personality.

4. <u>Sunburns</u> on the skin are produced by the action of the sun's rays, a physical agent related to the environment. The severity of sunburn will depend on the type of skin and the time of exposure to the sun's rays without protection for the skin.

The other options are not correct because:

<em>     2. Lymphomas are a variety of neoplasia that manifests itself in organs and lymphatic structures, and is not considered a contagious disease.</em>

<em>     3. </em><u><em>Arteriosclerosis </em></u><em>is an acquired disease, depending on lifestyle and risk factors, so it is not considered a congenital disease.</em>

How does the digestive system break down small proteins into amino acids? *
professor190 [17]

Answer:

Digestive system breakdown small proteins into amino acids by chemical digestion using enzymes (option B).

Explanation:

One of the main functions of the digestive system is to degrade food to facilitate its absorption at the intestinal level. This degradation has a mechanical phase, which includes chewing and contracting the stomach, and an enzymatic phase.

The enzymes that allow the breakdown of proteins into amino acids are called proteases, or peptidases. They are enzymes capable of breaking peptide bonds, obtaining at the end amino acids that can be more easily assimilated by the organism.

    <em>The other options are not correct because </em><u><em>mechanical digestion</em></u><em> reduces the size of the digested food and mixes it with the gastric juices, but does not break the peptide bonds.</em>

Akimi4 [234]
A material safety data sheet (MSDS) provides information on materials and chemical products. Both of these technicians are correct since the MSDS contains several sections including two sections referring to the toxicological information and the physical and chemical properties of the material. The physical and chemical properties involve information such as freezing/melting point, viscosity, solubility in water and others. The toxicological information should include information on the short- and long-term effects of exposure to this material and the several types of toxicity that this material could cause.
