Biology
1 answer:
lana [24]3 years ago

Answer:

3)The epiglottis is a small, movable "lid" just above the larynx that prevents food and drink from entering your windpipe. But if the epiglottis becomes swollen — either from infection or from injury — the airway narrows and may become completely blocked.

4)Your stomach lining also secretes hydrochloric acid, which creates the ideal conditions for the protein-digesting enzymes to work. The potent hydrochloric acid kills bacteria, protecting your body from harmful microbes which can enter your body in food.

5)Made up of three segments -- the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum -- the small intestine is a 22-foot long muscular tube that breaks down food using enzymes released by the pancreas and bile from the liver.

Which statements explain reasons why unconformities occur? Check all that apply.
likoan [24]

Answer:

3. Rocks erode and sediment is deposited.

4. No sediment is deposited over a long time.

Explanation:

An unconfomity is a break in stratigraphic record of a place usually as a result of non-deposition or erosion.

In a sequence of sedimentary rock strata some surfaces called unconformity surfaces gives clues about the depositional history of a particular place. During an unconfomity, there is usually no sediment deposition and when deposition resumes, the underlying rocks and the new ones will not share the same attribute especially by age. Unconformity can also be as a result of erosion of a sequence.

In the case of non- conformity, a sedimentary rock is deposited above an igneous or sedimentary rock. Option 5 is a simple example of an igneous intrusion called a sill. It is not unconformity.
