Answer:

pancreas: secretes digestive enzymes into the small intestine

esophagus: the place where peristalsis takes place

small intestine: area of the digestive tract where most nuturients are absorbed

stomach: area of the digestive tract that follows the esophagus

large intestine: area of the digestive tract where mostly water is absorbed

Explanation:

peristalsis: so the food can move down towards your stomach, independently of gravity

pancreas: helps your stomach become the ultimate weapon to destroy anything that gets in there with its enzymes

small intestine: it is really really long -> more time to absorb nutrients

large intestine: like a farm of bacteria, the most exotic things that somehow made it through all the way here are finally destroyed -> also, water absorbtion: your body wants to retain as much as possible, this is how and where stool formation takes place

Answer:

t= log2(2048)

The logarithm is the inverse function to exponentiation. That means the logarithm of a given number x is the exponent to which another fixed number, the base b, must be raised, to produce that number x. In this case:

${t}^{2} = 2048$

$t = \sqrt{2048} = 45.3h$

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

B. Sodium ions directly enter the cells, indicating the signal is transduced by an ion channel.

D. Sweet utilizes the GPCR signaling pathway, activating phospholipase C.

Explanation:

The taste received by the taste buds is processed through different channels

a) The Sweet, bitter, and umami tastes are transduced by the GPCR (G-protein-coupled receptors) signaling pathway

b) Sour taste reaches the taste bud through the acidification of acid-sensitive membrane proteins with in the taste cell

c) The epithelial sodium channels in the renal tissues directly takes up the salty taste

Hence, option B and D are correct

Which of the algae groups contain the same photosynthetic pigments as green plants, have lots of cellulose in their cell walls,

user100 [1]

<h2>Green Algae</h2>

Explanation:

Green algae (sing. alga) come in a heteromorph group of species and this is only a conventional name rather than biological classification. The group unites some predominant divisions like Chlorophyta and Charophyta.
Some species of Chlorophyta are considered to be the first ‘true’ plants by bridging between Protozoa and Plantae. Most of this division’s representatives are aquatic, they have chloroplasts and chlorophyll a and b, which are typical for plants. They could be unicellular, often colonial and even multicellular. The variety of the group is great in terms of their habitat, morpho-structure, reproductive system, etc. Some even live in symbiosis with fungi, but they are usually classified in a different division called Lichenophyta.
Hence, the answer is "green algae"
