Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

churning of the stomach contents.

Explanation:

When food is moved to the back of the mouth by the tongue (deglutition), it does not cause the churning of the stomach contents.

The churning of stomach contents occurs when the bolus from the mouth has entered through the lower esophageal sphincter into the stomach. Churning is the mixing of the bolus with digestive juices containing acids and enzymes secreted from the stomach lining.

Both klebsiella pneumoniae and streptococcus pneumoniae avoid phagocytosis by releasing a-b toxins that kill leukocytes.
Kobotan [32]
This is a false statement.

Klebsiella pneumoniae and Streptococcus pneumoniae are two bacteria who are encapsulated, that means that they are surrounded by an envelope. This capsule is critical to their pathogenicity since it protects them from the phagocytes of the human immune system. Certain proteins located on the surface of their capsule prevent the phagocytic cell from adhering to the bacteria and engulfing it.

17. Identify How would the
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

Gravity is one of those things we take completely for granted. And there are two things about it that we take for granted: the fact that it is always there, and the fact that it never changes. If the Earth's gravity were ever to change significantly, it would have a huge effect on nearly everything because so many things are designed around the current state of gravity.  Before looking at changes in gravity, however, it is helpful to first understand what gravity is. Gravity is an attractive force between any two atoms. Let's say you take two golf balls and place them on a table. There will be an incredibly slight gravitational attraction between the atoms in those two golf balls. If you use two massive pieces of lead and some amazingly precise instruments, you can actually measure an infinitesimal attraction between them. It is only when you get a gigantic number of atoms together, as in the case of the planet Earth, that the force of gravitational attraction is significant.  The reason why gravity on Earth never changes is that the mass of the Earth never changes. The only way to suddenly change the gravity on Earth would be to change the mass of the planet. A change in mass great enough to result in a change in gravity isn't going to happen anytime soon.

Explanation:

But let's ignore the physics and imagine that, one day, the planet's gravity turned off, and suddenly there was no force of gravity on planet Earth. This would turn out to be a pretty bad day. We depend on gravity to hold so many things down -- cars, people, furniture, pencils and papers on your desk, and so on. Everything not stuck in place would suddenly have no reason to stay down, it would start floating. But it's not just furniture and the like that would start to float. Two of the more important things held on the ground by gravity are the atmosphere and the water in the oceans, lakes, and rivers. Without gravity, the air in the atmosphere has no reason to hang around, and it would immediately leap into space. This is the problem the moon has -- the moon doesn't have enough gravity to keep an atmosphere around it, so it's in a near-vacuum. Without an atmosphere, any living thing would die immediately and anything liquid would boil away into space.  In other words, no one would last long if the planet didn't have gravity.  If gravity were to suddenly double, It would be almost as bad, because everything would be twice as heavy. There would be big problems with anything structural. Houses, bridges, skyscrapers, table legs, support columns, and so on are all sized for normal gravity. Most structures would collapse fairly quickly if you doubled the load on them. Trees and plants would have problems. Power lines would have problems. The air pressure would double and that would have a big effect on the weather.  What this answer shows you is just how integral gravity is to our world. We can’t live without it, and we can't afford to have it change. It is one of the true constants in our lives!
