small intestine in both digestive tracts is the jejunum‚ which consists of finger like structures called villi. The villi increase the surface area‚ which increases the amount of absorption. Water and nutrients are absorbed in the jejunum‚ as is carbohydrates and proteins in a ruminant species. Nutrients such as small peptides‚ amino acids‚ vitamins and glucose pass through the villi in a ruminant species. The last part of the small intestine is the ileum‚ where‚ in both‚ any leftover nutrients are

species that grow in environments unsuitable for crop production. Early in the project‚ macro algae‚ microalgae‚ and emergent were investigated for their ability to make lipids (as a feedstock for liquid fuel or chemical production) or carbohydrates (for fermentation into ethanol or anaerobic digestion for methane production). Macro algae (seaweeds) are fast-growing marine or freshwater plants that can reach considerable size; for example‚ the giant brown kelp can grow a meter in 1 day and as long

removed a tissue sample for examination and referred the patient to a gastroenterologist for a barium xray and colonoscopy. While utilizing the methods stated above‚ the bacterium found was a facultative anaerobe due to the Gram Negative Rods‚ fermentation‚ and the production of indole. The specific Gram Negative Enteric Bacilli was Shigella dysenteriae. There are many reasons for knowing how to control bacterial growth as well as such as antimicrobial drugs‚ which assist the body’s defenses against

Photosynthesis is a form of a chemical reaction that transforms energy from the sun in to a chemical energy‚ a carbohydrate known as glucose. Only plants are able to use this process to make their own food. This chemical reaction takes place in Chloroplasts‚ cells that are found in any green part of the plant. Chloroplasts are in green fragments of the plants because it contains a green pigment called chlorophyll. Although Photosynthesis can occur in any green portion of a plant‚ it mostly occurs

Food crops have occupied an important place in human nutrition as they remain the major sources of calories and protein for a large population in the world‚ particularly in developing countries. For economic and social reasons‚ many millions of people in Asia and African countries depend on vegetable products of cereals and legumes sources. According to the FAO available data‚ about 80% of the protein consumed by the humans in developing countries is supplied by the plants. Legumes are recognized

them. Plants can capture the energy of the sun by a chemical process called photosynthesis. This chemical reaction can be described by the following simple equation: 6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy = C6H12O6 + 6O2 The product of photosynthesis is a carbohydrate‚ such as the sugar glucose‚ and oxygen which is released to the atmosphere. All of the sugar produced in the photosynthetic cells of plants and other organisms is derived from the initial chemical combining of carbon dioxide and water with sunlight
