Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Omega-3 fatty acids found in fish are noted to help lower triglyceride levels.

Answer to Question 2

B
Churning and mixing of food in the stomach is an example of mechanical digestion because it causes physical breakdown of the food. Salivary amylase and secretin are enzymes that cause chemical breakdown of food; bile causes emulsification of the fats.
