Does the stomach only does chemical digestion to break down food?

Biology

bonufazy [111]3 years ago

In the stomach, food undergoes chemical and mechanical digestion. Peristaltic contractions (mechanical digestion) churn the bolus, which mixes with strong digestive juices that the stomach lining cells secrete (chemical digestion). As food travels from your mouth into your digestive system, it's broken down by digestive enzymes that turn it into smaller nutrients that your body can easily absorb. This breakdown is known as chemical digestion.

Make a decision about the molecule NaHCO3 classification organic or inorganic
motikmotik

<u>Answer:</u>

NaHCO_{3} is an inorganic compound.

<u>Solution:</u>

  1. Firstly, all the known definitions of organic compounds excludes Carbonic acid and it's salt from organic compounds except if 'C' is present in the cation.  
  2. Secondly, Sodium is a metal which organic compounds cannot posses as a compound.  
  3. Lastly, there is absence of C-H bond which is present in all the organic compounds.

Hence, we can conclude that NaHCO_{3}is an inorganic compound though there is presence of Carbon atom in it.

Simora [160]
Oh sweetheart. Leave the person if you're clearly not in love with them as they are with you. You're only hurting yourself, and that other person. They deserve someone who loves them as much as they love. And so do you! Be with whom you love, and set that other person free. Yes its not going to be easy, but life isn't easy. That's just part of life and growing up.
