Chewing or mastication is the process by which food is crushed and grounded by teeth. It is the first step of digestion, and it increases the surface area of foods to allow a more efficient breakdown by enzymes... After chewing the food ( now called a bolus) is swallowed. Hope this helps.

Answer:

When you first put a piece of food in your mouth, it is first grinded by your teeth, then saliva comes in to help you break down your food, the more you chew the more digestive enzymes occur, these enzymes are extremely important, they help your body take in nutrients from what you eat. This is why it's important to chew your food thoroughly before you swallow,

If 100 mg drug is administered and has a half life of 6 hours, the percentage of the drug that will be in the system is 18 hours
atroni [7]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation as the question seems incomplete but the explanation should help.

Explanation:

Given the following :

Initial dosage of drug = 100mg

Halflife of drug = 6hours

After 18 hours, the percentage of drug that will be in the system should be :

Half-life is the time taken for a material to reduce to half of it's initial size.

Since half life = 6 hours

After 6 hours ; amount left = 100/2 = 50 mg

After 12 hours ; amount left = 50/2 = 25mg

After 18 hours ; amount left = 25/2 = 12.5mg

Hence, after 18 hours percentage left in system :

(Amount left / total initial amount) × 100%

(12.5 / 100) × 100%

0.125 × 100%

= 12.5%
