What else can I help you with?
A chemical that breaks down food in the body into smaller bits is called what?
A digestive enzyme
What breaks starch into maltose in the mouth?
5% of the starches are broken down in the mouth before the food is swallowed.
WHAT IS THE process were bits of rock in streams get smaller and rounder?
The process of bits of rock getting smaller and rounder in streams is called abrasion. It occurs as the rocks get continuously moved and collide with each other and the streambed, wearing away their edges and corners. Over time, this results in smoother and more rounded rocks.
Why do cracks in a rock get larger because water has frozen in them?
Weathering is the process which breaks rocks into smaller bits. This is one type of weatheringPhysical weathering is a physical action which breaks up rocks : An example of this is called freeze-thaw weathering when water gets into tiny cracks in rocks. When the water freezes it expands, if this is repeated the crack grows and bits eventually break off.
How are metamorphic rocks eroded?
Metamorphic rocks can be eroded through processes like weathering, where exposure to elements such as wind, water, and ice slowly breaks down the rock into smaller fragments. This can also include physical processes like abrasion from moving particles or chemical processes that dissolve minerals within the rock. Over time, these erosion mechanisms can gradually wear away the surface of metamorphic rocks.
A chemical that breaks down food in the body into smaller bits is called what?
A digestive enzyme
What two digestive system occurs in the mouth?
Mechanical and chemical digestion both occur in the mouth (physically chewing and when saliva breaks down food into smaller bits).
The process where bits of rock in streams get smaller and rounder?
The process where bits of rock in streams get smaller and rounder is a form of erosion. The force of the water going across the rocks forms the shapes of the rocks and slowly makes them smaller.
How might the chewing of food be related to the rate of chemical reaction digestion that occurs in your body?
Chemical reaction rate is increased by: -increased surface area -increased temperature -increased concentration of reactants -presence of a catalyst Chewing food essentially breaks up large chunks of food into smaller bits, increased total surface area for digestion.
What happens when a rock is broken into small bits?
it breaks
How eating slowly helps digesting the food?
The slower you eat the more you chew. Chewing breaks the food down into smaller bits and this enables the digestive juices to work on them more easily.
When pounding chalk to small bits a physical change or a chemical change?
It's a physical change because it's only changing size and shape, not converting chemicals.
Is 8 bits are called giga bits?
No. 8 bits is called a byte.
What breaks starch into maltose in the mouth?
5% of the starches are broken down in the mouth before the food is swallowed.
What does the teeth do in the digestion?
grinds the food into smaller bits
Where is the bile produce which components of food does it help to digest?
it is produced in the liver.it helps breaking fats into smaller bits called emulsification of fat.
Why do they call it fractions?
The word fraction is derived from the Latin word frangere meaning to break. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- And when something breaks it is in bits - fractions are bits of things.
