a.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The effect of emulsification on digestion.

Introduction: The process of digestion is a complex process. The digestive system comprises of the gastrointestinal tract. The digestion system is composed of the organs like mouth, esophagus, stomach, large and small intestine.

b.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The effect of neural activity on digestion.

Introduction: Neurons are the types of cells that deliver the signals from one part of the body to the other part. The parts of the neurons are dendrites, axons, and a cell body.

c.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The effect of low pH on digestion.

Introduction: The pH of a system refers to the measurement of acidity and alkalinity of that system. Enzymes play an important role in digestion, and their working is affected by changing the temperature and pH in the system.

d.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The effect of size of food particles on digestion

1.) Community Diversity: The brown and orange line represent two different plant communities. a. Which color represents the community with a higher species richness? b. Which color represents the community with a higher species evenness? Relative abundance 0.1 0.04 0.001 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 22 24 Rank abundance c. What is the maximum value of the Simpson's diversity index (remember, Simpson's index is D = p², Simpson's diversity index is 1-D)? d. If the Simpson's diversity index equals 1, what does that mean about the number of species and their relative abundance within community being assessed?
