Answer:

A function of the digestive system is eliminates non-digestible waste (option B).

Explanation:

The digestive system performs the functions of processing food to make it easier to digest, absorbing nutrients and excreting wastes that are not usable by the body.

The excretory function of the digestive system —elimination of non-digestible wastes— is performed by the large intestine or colon, forming the feces.

The other options are not correct because:

<em>     A.  To transport nutrients to other organs is a function of the circulatory system. </em>

<em>     C. To regulate blood flow depends on the nervous system. </em>

<em>     D. To build big molecules from smaller molecules is a synthesis process that occurs at the cellular level.</em>

They want to just label things, but sometimes they label things and they aren’t right


2.The big food brands need to put food education all around their business. With fast food chains they need to make their food healthier and not as processed so that when we have fast food it won’t do as much harm to us.



3.He wishes that we would teach kids more about food. I think it is admirable because no onereally teaches kids what food is anymore and if we don’t do this then they will have no idea what certain food is and any nutritional facts about food. If we taught them about food then they would be knowledgeable about what they eat.
