Answer:
Explanation:
Mechanical digestion physically breaks down food, like when teeth macerate food into a bolus. The stomach contracts and relaxes in a churning motion. ... Chemical digestion occurs when the bonds within larger food molecules are broken, creating smaller molecules that the body can use.
Answer:
Processes involving dissolved and particulate organic carbon are of central importance in shaping the chemical character of seawater. Marine organic carbon principally originates in the uppermost 100 metres of the oceans where dissolved inorganic carbon is photosynthetically converted to organic materials.

This question is incomplete as the specific food chain is not provided. In general, a food chain will have a primary producer at the base of the chain. This is an organism that is able to utilise a form of energy to convert carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to a carbohydrate. For terrestrial food chains, these are typically plants, who by utilising the energy from the sun, are able to convert carbon dioxide to carbohydrates. The subsequent level in the food chain may be a primary consumer, typically herbivores, that consume plant matter. Subsequent links in the chain would typically be secondary consumers, who would be carnivores, omnivores or decomposers. Carnivores would typically be predators and would be at the apex of the food chain. Energy is lost from one link to the subsequent link in the food chain, through basic respiration and inefficient energy transfer from one link to another. This explains why more resources (land, water and air) are required to grow meat rather than plant matter. More of the sun's energy is available within the lower trophic levels in a food chain, before much of it is lost as energy moves up the food chain. An easy example to illustrate this is that much of the livestock raised in the USA is fed grain. If people rather ate the grain than the livestock, they could obtain all their required energy from a smaller amount of grain then would be needed to raise the meat they require.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Every living thing is made up from cells, as they are the smallest unit of a living thing.
The most important things for a cell<span> are oxygen in order to respire and Glucose, also for respiration. This is used in a process called glycolysis where the </span>cell<span> makes a chemical called ATP which is basically our energy
