How did the guild system work?
The guild system was an organization of artisans and merchants in medieval towns that regulated various trades and crafts. Each guild set specific standards for quality, training, and pricing, ensuring that members maintained a high level of skill and professionalism. They provided mutual support, offered protection for members' interests, and established rules for apprenticeship, allowing young individuals to learn a trade under experienced masters. Additionally, guilds often had significant social and political influence within their communities.
What macromolecule does saliva digest?
Saliva begins the chemical digestion of carbohydrates. The amylase in saliva breaks starch down into maltose. Another enzyme called maltase breaks maltose down into glucose....now your body can absorb it.
That is why when you eat bread, if you chew for a long time, it get's sweeter... It's because of the amylase in your saliva that makes the starches become sugar.
Where in the digestive system is the absorption of nutrients taking place?
Mainly in the small intestine. A small amount of absoprtion of nutrients can also take place in the stomach and large intestine.
What type of digestive do Chordata have?

An chordate takes in food through the mouth. The chordate has a mouth with a tongue. Some have teeth and some do not. It has a digestive system with stomach, intestines. Chordates eat plants and animals.
What are the main functions of the digestive system?
To process food and eradicate waste from the body. To help us get our food out of our system after we eat it. it makes it small and takes the nutrients out to store.
Where does the digestive tract begin?
Well, I don't know If I really understand the question but the digestion begins when the food enters the mouth, that is when teeth start crushing (mechanical), and the tongue forms the food into a ball, and salaiva covers the food and softens it, so it can go through the oesophagus.
I hope I answered your question. =)
Where is the enzyme screted and what does it digest fats into?
the enzyme that is secreted is lipase.
lipase is secreted in the pancreas where it is moved into the duodenum through the common bile duct. lipase is also secreted by the intestinal walls of the small intestine.there are funger like projections called villi. between 2 villi there are glandular pits where the succus entericus is secreted.lipase is in the succus entericus along with other enzymes.
lipase converts fats into fatty acids and glycerol.
by peristalsis which is the rhythmic, involuntary contraction of the smooth muscles in the walls of digestive organs.
What is the rate of peristalsis?
According to a study entitled The Treatment of the Different Foodstuffs by the Stomach, which appeared in Volume 12 of the American Journal of Physiology:
The rate of peristalsis noted when bread and milk were fed was stated as 6 waves per minute; a new contraction would thus appear every ten seconds. A considerably slower rate of peristalsis (4 waves per minute) was noticed after feeding a fat-suggesting that there might be characteristic rates for the different foodstuffs. Observations at different intervals after feeding were therefore made on various animals which had been fed various kinds of foods and the following results secured:
Average rate/minute Variations in rate
Fats 5.0 waves 4.0 to 6.0 waves
Proteins 5.2 waves 4.8 to 5.8 waves
Carbohydrates 5.5 waves 5.0 to 6.0 waves
In general, then, it seems that the average rate of peristalsis is 5.0 to 5.5 waves per minute, with variations noted from between 4.0 and 6.0 waves per minute.
How long does it take to digest a 20 ounzes of fluid?
If you are talking about a coke juice or soup, I would say 30 min to 1 hour at the most.
How does the structure of the villi assist with the utilization of digested fish?
how does the structure of the villi
Can cats digest corn starch and water?
Water, sure. But cats are obligate carnivores. They eat meat. Obligate means they MUST eat meat.
What is a simile for Small Intestine?
A simile is a figure of speech comparison which uses a connecting word such as like, as, so, than, or certain verbs such as resembles. So with that in mind, here are some examples:
The small intestine is like a long, small hose.
The small intestine curls around the inside of the body like a snake.
Why would the turbo stop working after you had the bands changed on your 95 Eagle Talon TSI?

All the organs in the digestive system working togather to procece the food into digesine
Saliva contains important substances that your body needs to begin to digest food and keep your teeth strong and helps food slide down the esophagus. It keeps your mouth moist and comfortable, helps you chew, taste, and swallow, fights germs in your mouth and prevents bad breath and has proteins and minerals that protect tooth enamel and prevent tooth decay and gum disease.
What are some gastrointestinal tract disorders that include abdomen pain and loss of appetite?
Abdominal pain and loss of appetite are very unspecific symptoms. They can stem from pretty much any disorder in the gastroinstestinal tract, and even from disorders elsewhere in the body. A common gastrointestinal infection by rota- or noroviruses ("stomach flu") for example can feel bad but might cure itself after a few days. Irritable bowel syndrome can cause recurring pains and could be caused by a variety of issues.
Occassional abdominal pain or loss of appetite can happen just because you ate something that didn't agree with you. If you have prolonged pains or seem to have lost your appetite completely, you should urgently see a doctor to determine where the problem lies.
