Select the correct answer. Which of these is a function of the digestive system? A.
transports nutrients to other organs
B.
eliminates nondigestible waste
C.
regulates blood flow
D.
builds big molecules from smaller molecules

A function of the digestive system is eliminates non-digestible waste (option B).

Explanation:

The digestive system performs the functions of processing food to make it easier to digest, absorbing nutrients and excreting wastes that are not usable by the body.

The excretory function of the digestive system —elimination of non-digestible wastes— is performed by the large intestine or colon, forming the feces.

The other options are not correct because:

    A.  To transport nutrients to other organs is a function of the circulatory system.

    C. To regulate blood flow depends on the nervous system.

    D. To build big molecules from smaller molecules is a synthesis process that occurs at the cellular level.

a progressive heart disease that affects pumping action of the heart muscles.

low context culture   (lc.):

association:    

relationships begin and end quickly. many people can be inside one's circle; circle's boundary is not clear.

things get done by following procedures and paying attention to the goal.

one's identity is rooted in oneself and one's accomplishments.

social structure is decentralized; responsibility goes further down (is not concentrated at the top).

interaction:

low use of nonverbal elements. message is carried more by words than by nonverbal means.

verbal message is explicit. context is less important than words.

verbal message is direct; one spells things out exactly.

communication is seen as a way of exchanging information, ideas, and opinions.  

disagreement is depersonalized. one withdraws from conflict with another and gets on with the task. focus is on rational solutions, not personal ones. one can be explicit about another's bothersome behavior.

territoriality:

space is compartmentalized and privately owned; privacy is important, so people are farther apart.

temporality:

things are scheduled to be done at particular times, one thing at a time. what is important is that activity is done efficiently.

change is fast. one can make change and see immediate results.

time is a commodity to be spent or saved. one’s time is one’s own.

learning:

reality is fragmented and compartmentalized. one source of information is used to develop knowledge. thinking is inductive, proceeds from specific to general. focus is on detail.

learning occurs by following explicit directions and explanations of others.

an individual orientation is preferred for learning and problem solving.

speed is valued. how efficiently something is learned is important.
