Questions 5
Topics Fermentation, Large Intestine, Moon, Species, Tertiary Consumers

Study Guide

Fermentation

If no oxygen is present, cellular respiration is anaerobic and will result in fermentation where either lactic acid or alcohol is used instead of oxygen.

Large Intestine

The large intestine (colon) follows the small intestine and processes the physical waste produced by digestion, absorbing water and minerials that remain back into the body. Solid waste is then stored in the rectum while liquid waste is stored in the bladder.

Moon

Tides are caused by the gravitational interaction of Earth and the Moon.

Species

The narrowest classification of life, species, contains organisms that are so similar that they can only reproduce with others of the same species.

Tertiary Consumers

Tertiary consumers eat primary consumers and secondary consumers and are typically carnivorous predators. Tertiary consumers may also be omnivores. Examples include wolves, sharks, and human beings.
