Answer:

B

Explanation:

When a person is obese, their heart has to work very hard to pump blood through their whole body, having high blood pressure just increases the strain on the heart. When people have high levels of LDL Cholesterol, the cholesterol may develop fatty deposits in the blood vessels that make it even harder for blood to flow through the arteries, increasing even more the strain on the heart. When they exercise, blood flows better through their vessels and decreases the strain on their heart, but when they don't exercise, fatty deposits may build up over time in their blood vessels, leading to heart disease.

Which of the following is NOT an example of chemical digestion
Digiron [165]

Answer:

c) peristaltic contractions in the stomach churn a food bolus into liquid chyme

Explanation:

Chemical digestion describes the breakdown of substances into smaller components by chemicals.

The stomach acid breaks down proteins into their subunits - amino acids. The saliva breaks down long molecules of carbohydrates to sugar monomers. The bile in the small intestine digests fat molecules into their components - glycerol and fatty acid chains.

Peristaltic contractions move and churn the food in the stomach to form liquid, but this process does not describe the chemical breakdown of substances.
