Completes the job of breaking down protein, carbohydrates, and fats using digestive juices of pancreas combined with juices from the intestines

Secretion of pancreatic juice (enzymes) for digestion and hormone secretion

the pancreas secretes insulin.

The function of the pancreas is to regulate blood sugar.

It produces digestive enzymes.

How does the nervous system help the body maintain homeostasis

It sends messages that control all the systems in the body.

The nervous system controls almost every action in the human body. It controls the heart beat, your adrenaline levels, and many other things which can effect an organism.

How are bacteria different from viruses

viruses are not alive. APEX

What happens in the alimentary canal

Nutrients are absorbed into the bloodstream. Starch is broken down by enzymes.

Macromolecules are broken down.

When does the embryo form

The tissue formed once mitosis of an OVUM

A few days after fertilization. apex:)

What are the systems in the circulatory system

The circulatory system is its own system. There are not systems in the circulatory system.

What must be true for natural selection to happen

There must be genetic variation in the population

The system must not be in hardy-weinberg equilibrium.

resources must be limited in the ecosystem

How does a mutation in a sex cell differ from a mutation in a non-sex cell

Mutations in sex cells can be passed on to children.

Mutations in sex cells only affect offspring.

Mutations in sex cells do not affect the organism.

Which is part of the alimentary canal

Small intestine

Esophagus - APEX

The parts of the alimentary canal are:

The Mouth

The Pharynx

The Stomach

The small intestine

Hormones.

How is an HIV infection different from a cold virus infection
