Answer:

The larva gets dark pigment.

Explanation:

If scientists purposely injected an excess concentration of these proteins in the larva, the larva gets deep dark colour because this protein is responsible for the pigment colour in the larva of Drosophila. By increasing the protein concentration the pigment will also have a very dark colour. So we can conclude from this that increasing the amount of protein causes increase in the pigment colour.

Answer:

The correct answer is- digestion, absorption, transport, elimination

Explanation:

The process of digestion starts from the mouth with the help of enzymes called salivary amylase present in our saliva. The food then passes through the esophagus to the stomach.  

In the stomach, the food is broken down in small fragments by churning movement which mixes digestive enzymes and food to form chyme.  

This chyme is passed to the small intestine where several enzymes from the liver and pancreas digest the food in smaller particles and absorb these particles in the blood. Therefore absorption takes place in the small intestine.

Then the solid waste material left behind after absorption is transported from small intestine to the large intestine and from large intestine waste is eliminated out of the body.

Therefore the correct order are: digestion → absorption→ transport→ elimination.
