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.

In paragraph 7, what rebuttal does the author make to the claim in paragraph 6 that America is too culturally diverse to have a
Eva8 [605]

This question is about "A quilt of a country".

Answer:

C. She supports the idea that every generation of immigrants arrives with the same dreams and faces the same problems of assimilation.

Explanation:

In paragraph 7, the author shows that even if cultural diversity prevents the country from reaching a national character, it brings all immigrants together in the same story and still achieves American glomorization about overcoming difficulties.

This is because all immigrants, including those who lived in the country in remote times, came with the same dreams and goals and had the same difficulties to establish themselves and readapt to the new environment. This unites them all in a single concept, thus being able to create a national character.
