Which of the following correctly describes the structure and its function? cardiac sphincter; controls what food enters the stomach stomach; mixes chum and food small intestine; absorbs fats and fatty acids colon; food is chemically digested

Option C, Small intestine; absorbs fats and fatty acids

Explanation:

We will look at the functions of all the given structure

a) Cardiac sphincter - Just like a cardiac system it prevents the back movement of food from stomach to esophagus.

b) Stomach - digestive enzymes and acid act on the food to digest it.

c) Small intestine - its main function is to absorb nutrients and minerals from food. Thus, absorption of fats and fatty acids is the right function of small intestine

d) Colon - it forms stool after the re-absorption of left out minerals and fluid in the digested food passed on by the small intestine.

Thus, option C, is correct.

the answer is c a tornado

answer;

a. sheep consumption efficiency would be reduced.

explanation;

-trophic efficiency is a measure of how much energy occurs at one level divided by the energy at the level immediately below it . trophic efficiency incorporates three types of efficiency:

-the proportion of available energy that is consumed (consumption efficiency).   it is the proportion of the available biomass that is ingested by consumers.

-the proportion of ingested food that is assimilated (assimilation efficiency).

-the proportion of assimilated food that goes into new consumer biomass (production efficiency).

-in this case, the grasshoppers would affect sheep by reducing the proportion of the available biomass that is ingested by the sheep.
