How do carbohydrates, fats and proteins get digested in human beings?

When a person puts food in his mouth, then teeth cut it into small pieces, chew and grind it. The glands A in the mouth secrete a substance B which is mixed with the food by tongue. The substance B contains an enzyme C which starts the digestion of food in the mouth. The slightly digested food from the mouth goes down a tube D. The special type of movements E in the walls of tube D push the food into stomach for further digestion. The stomach wall secretes gastric juice containing three substance F, G and H. One of the functions of F is to kill bacteria which may enter the stomach with food. The substance G protects the inside layer of stomach from the damaging effect of substance F whereas substance H is and enzyme for digestion. The partially digested food then enters into small intestine for further digestion.

1. What is Gland A, Substance B and Enzyme C?
2. Name the tube D.
3. What is the movement E known as?
4. What are F, G and H?

Describe the mechanism of urine formation in human excretory system. Draw a labelled diagram to illustrate your answer.

Classify the following into herbivores, carnivores and omnivores:
Lion, Man, Dog, Goat, Crow, Elephant, Snake, Hawk, Rabbit, Deer.

How is double circulation different from single circulation?

Second stage of urine formation is called selective re-absorption. Why?

A unicellular animal P having no fixed shape ingests a food particle by forming temporary finger-like projections Q. The food particle is engulfed with a little surrounding water to form a temporary stomach R inside it. The chemicals S from surrounding cytoplasm enter into R and break down food into small and soluble molecules by chemical reactions. The digested food is absorbed directly into cytoplasm by the process T. The undigested food is thrown out of the body by the rupture of a cell organelle U in a process called V.

1. Name the unicellular animal P.
2. What are (i) Q, and (ii) R?
3. Name (i) chemical S, and (ii) process T.
4. Name (i) organelle U, and (ii) process V.

During the respiration of an organism A, 1 molecule of glucose produces 2 ATP molecules whereas in the respiration of another organism B, 1 molecule of glucose produces 38 ATP molecules.

1. Which organism is undergoing aerobic respiration?
2. Which organism is undergoing anaerobic respiration?
3. Which type of organism, A or B, can convert glucose into alcohol?
4. Name one organism which behaves like A.
5. Name two organisms which behave like B.

There are four organisms A, B, C and D. The organism A eats only the flesh of other animals as food. The organism B can eat grains, fruits and vegetables as well as meat and fish. The organism C can make the food itself from simple inorganic substances present in the environment by utilising sunlight energy. On the other hand, organism D eats only plants and their products as food.

1. Which organism is

1. Omnivore,
2. Herbivore,
3. Carnivore?

2. Which organism is an autotroph?
3. Which organism is/ are heterotroph (s)?
4. Which organism can be a producer?
5. Which organism is/ are consumer (s)?

Give one example each of organisms which could be like A, B, C and D.

1. Name the organs that form the excretory system in human beings.
2. Describe in brief how urine is produced in human body.
