Question

Name a microorganism.
Define large intestine and peristalsis.
What do u mean by capillaries?​

Answer 1

Your Solution:

i) Amoeba (Protozoa) is a micro - organism.

ii) The large intestine is the last part of the gastrointestinal tract that performs the important task of absorbing water and vitamins while converting digested food into feces. The length of the large intestine is about 1.5 m in length and 2.5 inches in diameter in the living body.

Peristalsis is a series of wave-like contractions of the muscles that are involved in the food movement and in the movement of other liquid particles in the digestive tract to various processing organs that are located in the digestive system.

iii) Capillaries are the blood vessels responsible for the exchange of essential materials between blood and tissues. Capillaries are the smallest and thin­ walled blood vessels involved in the diffusion of nutrients, hormones and gases into the tissue cells.

Answer 2

Answer:

HOPE IT HELPS YOU

Explanation:

1) The major groups of microorganisms—namely bacteria, archaea, fungi (yeasts and molds), algae, protozoa, and viruses—are summarized below. Links to the more detailed articles on each of the major groups are provided.

2) The motion mixes and shifts the chyme back and forth. This lets the bloodstream absorb nutrients through the walls of the small intestine. In the large intestine peristalsis helps water from undigested food be absorbed into the blood stream. Then, the remaining waste products are excreted through the rectum and anus.

3) Capillaries are very tiny blood vessels — so small that a single red blood cell can barely fit through them. They help to connect your arteries and veins in addition to facilitating the exchange of certain elements between your blood and tissues.
