Describe how the action of the action of the mouth,aesphogus and stomach contribute to the digestion of food

Biology
1 answer:
AURORKA [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Mouth: The process of food breakdown first begins in the mouth. The tooth, tongue and jaw apply this process with a mechanical activity. While teeth provide mechanical digestion of food, saliva chemically digests food.

YUtta and esophagus): The tongue pushes the food towards the esophagus. Meanwhile, the trachea is covered with a laryngeal lid. When swallowed food reaches the esophagus, the esophagus contracts peristaltic movements, allowing the food to move towards the stomach.

Stomach: The stomach is an organ that stores food, breaks it down mechanically and secretes enzymes to digest proteins. The secretion of gastric juice is provided by the gastrin hormone. The stomach is an acidic environment. This acid kills bacteria in food and converts proteins into amino acids in enzymes in the stomach. Ultimately, a mixture of partially digested nutrients called chyme is obtained. This mixture is sprayed into the small intestine. Vitamin B12 is a vitamin that is released from the stomach.

The Great Oxygen Event marks the time, approximately 2.5 billion years ago, when ________.
Leokris [45]

Answer :There was enough oxygen in the atmosphere to support a major burst of life on Earth

Explanation:

The Great Oxygen Event marks the time, approximately 2.5 billion years ago, when there was enough oxygen in the atmosphere to support a major burst of life on Earth

For the first half of the Earht's history, there was no oxygen in the atmosphere. It was inhabited only by single-celled organisms.Of  those simple life forms, the cyanobacteria may have. evolved a way to take energy from sunlight, and used it to make sugars out of water and carbon dioxide. They used the same chemical process we know as photosynthesis. This released vast quantities of oxygen into the atmosphere and  triggered the evolution of complex life.

Valentin [98]

Answer:

1) you're going to have to flip the coins (or fake numbers) for the experimental trials.

2) for the theoretical, there is 1/2 chance for heads or tails with each toss, so you'd expect that out of 10 tosses, 5 heads, 5 tails. out of 100 tosses- 50 heads, 50 tails.

When tossing 2 coins- 1/2×1/2 = 1/4 (25%) chance that 2 heads, 2 tails, or 1 heads & 1 tails. Deviation value comes from after you done your flipping and recorded your data. So if on 100 flips you actually got 50 and 50 (rarely us that exact ;), the deviation from the expected of 50/50 would be 0.00. If however you flipped 100 heads or 100 tails (impossible), then the deviation value would be 1.00.

|(100-50)| ÷ 50 = 50÷50 = 1.00

So usually you may have data like: 47/53 or something a little off than 50/50, making deviation |(47-50)| ÷ 50 = 3÷50 = 0.06.

Now the number of flips is important for the outcome! So if a coin toss if 10 times had 4 heads, 6 tails, the deviation value would be:

|(4-5)| ÷ 5 = 1÷5 = 0.20

So increasing the # flips DECREASES the deviation value!!

Whether it's from 10 to 100, or from 100 to 200. Look at my example of how the 10-flip deviation of 0.20 decreased to 0.06 with 100-flip
