Sammi is studying the interaction of the digestive and circulatory systems in the human body. she has listed various processes that occur in each of the systems. put the processes in order to describe the interaction between these two systems. tiles nutrients diffuse through the villi of the small intestine.digestive processes break nutrients down in the mouth, stomach, and small intestine.blood is pumped through the circulatory system to deliver nutrients to other organs.nutrients are ingested at the mouth.nutrients enter the capillaries of the circulatory system. sequence

Which best describes red blood cells? a. they are colorless b. they protect against disease-carrying microorganisms c. they transport oxygen throughout the body d. they aid in blood clotting

The tasmanian devil, a marsupial carnivore, is facing extinction due to devil facial tumor disease (dftd) which causes bulging cancerous lumps and lesions to erupt around the face and neck — often causing enough deformation to make seeing or eating difficult. dftd has evolved into a contagious cancer, a trait that is unique among cancers. devil mating behavior involves biting around the head and neck, allowing cells from one individual — especially cells from the crumbly dftd tumors — to be transferred to the wounds or face of a new individual. this marsupial was once found across australia, but sea levels rose, isolating the tasmanian population, while the australian population went extinct. what would be an outcome of genetic isolation that is likely to have impacted the spread of dftd? a) reduced territory puts diseased individuals in greater contact with non-diseased ones. b) inbreeding results in less variation in facial features so the cancer is generally fatal. c) genetic isolation has made it difficult for scientists to develop a vaccine against dftd. d) the lack of genetic variation in the immune system of tasmanian devils minimizes resistance to the disease.
