Answer:

Blank 1: Mechanical

Blank 2: teeth

Blank 3: Chemical

Blank 4: saliva

Explanation:

The above are correct.

Mechanical digestion refers to the physical break down of food particles by the teeth. This process involves grinding, breaking, masticating and tearing of food substances with the teeth. This is done in order to make the food substances smaller for chemical digestion.

The chemical digestion further breaks the smaller food particles into absorbable particles. This is carried out by some enzymes found in the saliva. These enzymes are secreted in the digestive tract and it then breaks the chemical bond holding food particles together.

Therefore, mechanical digestion is done by the teeth while chemical digestion is done by the saliva.

2. Throughout history, literature has been used as a form of protest. Choose two selections from this unit and explain why they
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Two examples of literature that can be seen as a form of protest are the book "A Vindication of the Rights of Woman: with Strictures on Political and Moral Subjects", written by Mary Wollstonecraft, and the pamphlet "A Modest Proposal" written by Jonathan Swif.

In "The Vindication of the Rights of Woman" Wollstonecraft protests about the condition of women in society and how to deny them full education, just like men received, left them submissive, childlike and devalued. For this reason, Wollstonecraft protested the society that put women in a place that was not theirs and deprived them of being independent and of having a bright future that they were able to have.

In "A Modest Proposal", Swift ironically and acidly criticizes the state's neglect and irresponsibility in caring for the most needy, leaving them totally destitute. In this pamphlet Swift suggests that poor children serve as food for the rich, so the government will have no responsibility to them and still prevent them from stealing out of necessity.

Reread lines 40-54 of "The Wanderer." To whom or what does the phrase alone
Vsevolod [243]

The phrase applies to an exiled man.

We can reach this conclusion because:

  • "The Wanderer" is an Anglo-Saxon poem that portrays the disadvantages of being an exiled person.
  • The poem presents a man who has been removed from his people and now walks without any company.
  • The poem shows how difficult this life of solitude is, because, besides the lack of company, man lives without love and no one to count on.
  • However, this man has great faith and believed that all the suffering he is experiencing will pass one day.

By this, when the speaker says "alone and unloved," he is referring to the way the exiled man lives.
