Social Studies
1 answer:
earnstyle [38]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Water towers were needed to move water safely to the 7th floor and above. Although they looks like remnants of the past, they are still very much in use today. Using gravity to help supply the water pressure, water is fed to pipes throughout the building, providing water for everyday use like showers and drinking, as well as extinguishing a fire.

Nesterboy [21]

Solution :

a). The path from mouth to the duodenum is :

Oral cavity ----  Oropharynx  ----   Laryngopharynx  ----   Esophagus  ----  lower esophageal sphincter  ---   Stomach   ----   Pyloric sphincter    ----  Duodenum.

b). The digestive functions of the organs are :

ORAL CAVITY

The saliva in the oral cavity or the mouth keeps the mouth mist and it helps in food digestion. The salivary amylase converts the stretch into the maltose.

STOMACH

The stomach produces acidic pH and it helps to break the proteins in the food by the enzyme, Pepsinogen.

DUODENUM

In the duodenum, the chyme is mixed with the enzyme, bile and the pancreatic juice which helps in digestion.

c). In the gastroesophageal reflux, the lower sphincter does not function properly and that is why the gastric content that contains the acid and the pepsin regurgitate into the end of lower esophageal. This area is not an acid resistant, so the ulceration takes place.

d). Elevation of a head-end of the patient's bed, so that the gravity stops in  the upward motion of the esophageal contents. The potent acid inhibiting agents like the Omeprazole.
