What part of the digestive system first causes chemical changes to food?
A. teeth in the mouth
B. saliva in the mouth
C. enzymes in the stomach
D. enzymes in the small intestine

Answers

Answer:

b. saliva in the mouth

Explanation:

saliva contains enzymes that help break down food

Saliva in the mouth causes the first chemical changes in the food. So the correct option is B.

What is saliva?

Saliva is a continuously present, viscous, colorless, opalescent fluid in the mouths of humans and other animals. It is made up of amylase, water, mucus, proteins, and mineral salts.

Saliva takes up food particles, bacterial cells, and white blood cells as it moves about in the oral cavity. Every day, a person's mouth excretes one to two liters of fluid.

The total amount of saliva is produced by three primary pairs of salivary glands as well as numerous smaller glands that are dispersed across the has included of the cheeks, lips, tongue, and palate.

The mouth naturally produces small amounts of saliva on a regular basis, but the introduction of food, or even just the scent or idea of it, will significantly enhance saliva production.

Salivation serves a variety of purposes. In order to aid in speaking and transform foodstuffs into a liquid or semisolid material that can be tasted and taken more readily, it primarily lubricates and moistens the interior of the mouth.

Therefore the correct option is B.

What is the full function of the inner ear.​

Answers

Answer:

The inner ear is primarily responsible for balance, equilibrium and orientation in three-dimensional space. The inner ear can detect both static and dynamic equilibrium. Three semicircular ducts and two chambers, which contain the saccule and utricle, enable the body to detect any deviation from equilibrium. The inner ear (also called the labyrinth) contains 2 main structures — the cochlea, which is involved in hearing, and the vestibular system (consisting of the 3 semicircular canals, saccule and utricle), which is responsible for maintaining balance.

What is index of refraction and what does it have to do with the speed of light?

Answers

Answer:

Index of refraction is the ratio of the velocity of light in medium to the velocity of light in vacuum.

OR:

Index of refraction is the ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence to sine of the angle of refraction of light propagating from one medium to another.

When the refractive index is greater, the speed of light is greater as it moves from the medium to vacuum.

Explain what would occur if the population of an animal such as a beaver, changes the environment and can increase the number of individuals in that area. In other words, explain how a change to an environment can cause an increase in an animal population.

Your answer:

Answers

Not sure if we have to use the example of a beaver, but if wolves are increasingly being killed by people in an area, it would cause their population to decrease, and the population of animals wolves prey on, such as deer, would increase, disturbing the natural balance of the ecosystem. There would be an overpopulation of deer.

Field mustard is an annual plant that grows wild in many regions of the world. It has small yellow flowers and is pollinated by insects. Field mustard has to flower and produce seeds to give rise to the next generation. Southern California experienced a severe drought between 2000 and 2004. Plants that flowered earlier reproduced. Those that flowered later died without producing seeds. This led to more early-flowering field mustard plants. This change in population characteristics took only a few generations.

How do you think scientists discovered that the flowering time of the field mustard had changed?

Answers

Answer:

Due to early flowering in the mustard plant.

Explanation:

The scientists discovered that the flowering time of the field mustard had changed by observing more mustard plants which produces earlier flowers. The behaviour of the mustard plant change due to the change that occur in the environmental conditions that leads to early flowering in mustard plant. If this early flowering occurs for more generation, then the mustard plant will adopt this type of behaviour in normal environmental conditions that experience by the mustard plant.

Hammed has 200 stamps. 35% from Europe, 10% from Asia , 20% from Australi The rest of the stamps from North America. How many of Hammed's stamps are from North America?

Answers

Answer:El 35% es de America del Norte

Explanation:

Answer:

135%

Explanation:

Given

Europe =  35%

Asia = 10%

Australia* = 20%

North America = ?

To find

Europe + Asia + Australia =

35% + 10% + 20% = 65%

Then the total subtracted from the given

200 - 65 = 135

Therefore,

North America = 135%

Confirm

To make sure that is the correct answer, add it all together.

35 + 10 + 20 + 135 = 200

Which means it is correct.
