What part of the gastrointestinal tract is the predominant site of dietary fat hydrolysis?
The small intestine is the main site of dietary fat digestion. The small intestine is part of the gastrointestinal tract. The majority of fat absorption occurs in the ileum of the small intestines

What is Bill of material's Flushing principle used in ERP systems?
The "Flushing Principle" in a Bill of Materials, is used set the point at which a bill of material component is automatically consumed during production in order to both;
> Establish the point at which a raw material is removed from available inventory (this is meant to prevent a raw material already assigned to an existing production order from appearing to be available to someone planning future production orders).
> Establish the point at which a raw material's cost is recorded to the appropriate general ledger account(s).
Generally, this information is manually entered or selected from a list of options within the setup of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) or production software.
A common methodology would be to indicate to the software system the stage of the production process in which the raw material is to be consumed.
For example, a bill of material component might be consumed in the following ways:
1) Pre-flushed: consumed at the start of the production cycle
2) Back-Flushed: consumed at the end of the production cycle
3) Manually: consumed when manually entering the information any time within the production cycle.

What cell in the digestive system produces lysozyme?
Paneth cells
In addition to defensins, Paneth cells secrete lysozyme[6], tumor necrosis factor-alpha[6] , and phospholipase A2.[citation needed] Lysozyme and phospholipase A2 both have clear antimicrobial activity. This battery of secretory molecules gives Paneth cells a potent arsenal against a broad spectrum of agents, including bacteria, fungi and even some enveloped viruses.

What is the part of the alimentary canal is between the stomach and the large intestine?
The small intestine.
By "get skinny" you mean loose 34 pounds, I do not recoment for you to stop eating because even though you may get skinny, you will look unhealthy and it is bad for your internal organs. I imagine 2-3 weeks of no eating would make one loose that much weight. Starvation will back fire on you . The best way to see the weight drop off of you is to eat 5 to 6 small meals a day of healthy foods. The frequent small meals speeds up your metabolism and you lose weight. When you starve yourself your metabolism slows down and you will gain weight. This is the bodies way to protect itself and conservere energy for survival. I saw this happen with me. I started gaining weight and it was because I was eating less meals and the meals I did eat were bigger. Once I started eating more smaller meals my weight starting dropping again. Ruth, Dietitian
