Answer:

The digestive system is my favorite system! Without it you would not survive. Our digestive system is how we break down food into nutrients that feed our cells and give us energy to move, talk, grow, think, reproduce, and all the other crazy things that humans do.

Although each of the parts of the digestive system has specific and important functions, shockingly, you can survive without some of the parts. For example, morbidly obese individuals can have their stomach entirely removed in a procedure called a gastric bypass. In this surgery, the small intestine is linked directly to the esophagus thus “bypassing” the stomach. You can also live without your appendix. In fact, it sometimes negatively impacts health as it can become infected (have you ever known someone who had their appendix burst?). The appendix was thought to be a “vestigial organ” meaning that at one point in evolutionary history, we humans had a need for it, but now we don’t; however, there is recent evidence that the appendix is an important hotbed for beneficial bacteria that help us digest food.

I hope this helps! Brainliest is always appreciated!

Answer:

They wouldn't be able to digest the food. It wouldn't break down like it's supposed to with the digestive enzymes.

Answer:

The correct order is F, E, C, G, H, A, D, and B (look at the image in the attached files)

Explanation:

Interphase: Stages G1, S, and G2. At this point probably, the chromatin duplication has already occurred, but it is still lax or dispersed. It has not condensed yet. Two pairs of centrioles are outside the nucleus (FIGURE F)
Prophase: Centrioles move forward to the opposite poles of the cell. Chromatin is condensed and individual chromosomes are now visible. The nuclear membrane breaks into many pieces. Spindle apparatus -microtubules- forms. (FIGURE E)
Metaphase: The polar and the kinetochore fibers drive each individual chromosome to the equatorial plane. This stage ends when all the chromosomes are completely arranged in the medial area. (FIGURE C)
Anaphase: Sister chromatids separate and move to the opposite poles of the cells, driven by the microtubules. In each pole, there are a pair of centrioles (FIGURE G and H).
Telophase: The nuclear membrane rearranges. Each sister chromatid becomes now a new chromosome. There is a pair of centrioles outside each of the nuclei. (FIGURE A)
Cytokinesis occurs at the end of the cell division. The rest of the cell is divided into two new daughter cells. Each daughter cell is an identical copy of the other cell, with the exact same genetic material (FIGURE D).
Decondensation of the genetic material of each new cell (FIGURE B).
