4.

Most digestion takes place in the _____. (1 point)

large intestine
mouth
small intestine
stomach

5.
The large intestine maintains ___________ by absorbing water from the _______, or undigested mass. (1 point)

homeostasis; chyme
digestion; saliva
mechanical digestion; enzymes
homeostasis; bile

My answers:
4. small intestine
5. homeostasis; chyme

Number 4) the answer to number 4 would be the small intestine, unless it is asking about protien, in which case it would be the stomach.

Sorry, I don't know the answer to 5!
hope this helped though!

To determine the correct answers for questions 4 and 5, we need to understand the different parts of the digestive system and their functions.

Question 4 asks where most digestion takes place. To find the answer, we can recall that the majority of chemical digestion occurs in the small intestine. It is here that enzymes break down food particles into smaller molecules that can be absorbed by the body. So, the correct answer for question 4 is indeed the small intestine.

For question 5, we need to determine what the large intestine maintains and what it absorbs water from. The large intestine's primary role is to absorb water from the undigested material that passes through it. This helps in the formation of feces and prevents excessive water loss from the body. The undigested mass passing through the large intestine is called "chyme." Therefore, the correct answer for question 5 is "homeostasis; chyme" since the large intestine maintains homeostasis by absorbing water from the chyme.

To summarize:
4. The correct answer is the small intestine.
5. The correct answer is "homeostasis; chyme."
