A new mammal has been discovered in the thickly-forested mountains of Papua New Guinea. The squirrel-like animal lives in the canopy of the forest and has a diet rich in leaves. On occasion, however, the animal drops to the ground to quickly fill its cheeks with its own fecal droppings, for ingestion once it is safely back in the trees. The GI tract of this animal would most likely include . a simple stomach and a large cecum a simple stomach, a short small intestine and colon, and a small cecum a four-chambered stomach and long intestines a long small intestine with abundant villi and an appendix at the beginning of the large intestine a short intestine and no cecum

a simple stomach and a large cecum

Explanation:

Some small animals whose diet is prominent in vegetable matter, have an elongated cecum.

This segment of the digestive tract might be considered the first portion of the large intestine. It receives undigested material, and through the action of bacterial flora, is able to ferment this material and mix its contents with mucous substances to facilitate absorption. Through the walls, the organ can absorb fluids, salts, and nutrients.

The cecum size varies according to the animals. In small organisms, such as the new squirrel-like herbivore animal from the example, the cecum is enlarged. An elongated surface is useful for better digestion and absorption.

answer:

the water molecules are transferred from the roots to the stem or top parts of the tall tree because of important properties of water which are adhesion, cohesion and capillary action. cohesion is the property of water molecules keeps water molecules in a combined state by sharing of bonds between them at the atomic level. adhesion allows the interaction of water molecules with other substances or substrate. adhesion will cause the attachment of water molecules to the wall of the vessel (xylem) of the plant. capillary action occurs when the adhesive force to the vessel wall is stronger than the cohesive force between water molecules. capillary action mimics the transfer of water from a tube or pipe. in this way water utilizes its property to transfer water from down to top level of the plant.
