2.Sucrose.
3.carbon dioxide, water
4.both are pigments
5.oxygen, electron and protons
6.ATP, NADPH2
7.chloroplast
8.Heterotrophs- digestion occurs inside the body, saprotrophs- digestion occurs outside of body.
9.plant-cuscuta, orchid animal-lice, tics
10.Salivary amylase-It digests starch to maltose.
11.Iodine solution, blue
12.Peristaltic
13.HCl, pepsin, mucus
14.Protects the inner lining of stomach from the action of acid HCl.
15.Pyloric sphincter
16.Activates pepsin, make the medium acidic for enzyme action, Microcidal.
17.Pepsin digests protein into peptones.
18.It behaves as exocrine as well as endocrine gland.
19.(i)Emulsifies fat (ii) Change the food medium into alkaline on which pancreatic enzyme can act.
20.Liver
21.(i)Amylase- carbohydrate, (ii) Lipase- fat, (iii) Trypsin- protein.
22.Secreted from internal wall of small intestine.
23.Perform final digestion of all food components.
24.(i) carbohydrate- glucose, (ii)fat- fatty acid, glycerol (iii) protein- amino acid.
25.Villi, Increase the surface area of absorption of digested food.
26.More the blood supply, the more will be the absorption of digested food.
27.Regulate the exit of waste material.
28.Anaerobic-cytoplasm, aerobic- mitochondria.
29.Pyruvic acid.
30.Because of the accumulation of lactic acid which is formed due to anaerobic break down of glucose.
31.Lactic acid is a 3 carbon compound produced on oxidation of glucose anaerobically where as ethanol a 2 carbon compound is formed on anaerobic oxidation of glucose along with co2.
32.ATP
33.Because they take dissolved oxygen whose percentage in water is lower than atmospheric percentage.
34.Filter impurities.
35.Exchange of gases by diffusion process. Oxygen from lungs moves to blood and carbon dioxide from blood moves to lungs.
36.O2(-ve)haemoglobin, O2(-ve)plasma.
37.Haemoglobin has high affinity for oxygen, so it carries the gas faster in blood where as diffusion is a slow process.
