Peristalsis is the involuntary relaxation and constriction of the muscles of the digestive system which causes the movement of food in the digestive system. This is actually one of the reasons why you can eat upside down, however it is not advisable. 

The answer is PERISTALSIS.

A  Kidney/s: They are bean-shaped organs that filter waste products and urea from the blood. The filtering units of kidneys are called nephrons. Along with water, these waste products and urea are what makes up urine.

B. Ureters - 
These are thin tubes that connect the kidney and bladder. From the kidneys, the urine passes through the ureter down to the bladder. These ureters are just about 8 to 10 inches long. The ureters' walls tighten and relax to prevent back flow of urine. 

C. Urinary Bladder - 
The bladder is a hollow and balloon-shaped. It collects the urine from the ureters. The bladder is held up by ligaments that are attached to the pelvic bones and other organs. The bladder has a sphincter that prevents leakage into the end point of the urinary system. 

D. Urethra
- It is a tube that allows the passage of urine out of the body. Men generally have longer urethras than women. In women, the urethra is about 2 inches long and in men, about 8 inches long.

Can you explain how more life-forms were able to create because of cyanobacteria​ PLEASE HELP
Ainat [17]

The cyanobacteria changed the composition of the earth’s atmosphere by evolving oxygen in what is referred to as the Great Oxygenation Event. This also allowed the ozone to be formed and block off most of the UV rays that are destructive to genetic material. Life was, therefore, also able to exist on land other than in water.

Why is fishing for some kinds of ocean fish controlled by laws?
lora16 [44]
C is the answer. Due to the current state of the world economy; people, if left to their own devices, would fish as much as possible so they can sell their fish to make money. Current technology means we can catch as many fish as we want (trawlers etc.). The problem with this is that there is only a finite amount of fish in the sea. If we were to fish them without limits in place, we could cause them to go extinct.
