Answers
Answer:
1. These fatty acids are absorbed directly through ruminal wall into blood stream and accounts for 60 to 80 % of energy needs of Ruminants. In contrast, human stomach can not break down cellulose and derive no energy from it. ... These are the main difference between Ruminant's stomach and Human Stomach.
2. Digestion is the process which involves in Breaking Down complex food particles into simpler ones.
3. Villi are small finger-like projections found inside the inner walls of the small intestine. They v increase the surface area for absorption of the digested food. Each villus has a network of thin and small blood vessels close to its surface. The surface of the villi absorbs the digested food materials.
4. Among all the food that we ingest, 80 percent of the electrolytes present in them, and 90 percent of water are absorbed in the small intestine. Although the entire small intestine is involved in the absorption of water and lipids, water reabsorption is the main function of the large intestine.
5. The stomach is a muscular, J-shaped organ in the upper part of the abdomen. It is part of the digestive system, which extends from the mouth to the anus.
6. Nutrition in an Amoeba occurs through a process called phagocytosis where the entire organism pretty much engulfs the food it plans on eating up. The mode of nutrition in amoeba is known as holozoic nutrition. It involves the ingestion, digestion and egestion of food material.
7. Monkeys are omnivores. This means that they eat meat and plant-based foods. Most monkeys eat nuts, fruits, seeds and flowers. Some monkeys also eat meat in the form of bird's eggs, small lizards, insects and spiders.
8. The mode of nutrition in amoeba is known as holozoic nutrition. It involves the ingestion, digestion and egestion of food material. Amoeba does not have any specialized organ for nutrition.
9. Taste buds are sensory organs that are found on your tongue and allow you to experience tastes that are sweet, salty, sour, and bitter.
