Principle of Dialysis: The blood from an artery in the patients arm is made to flow into the dialyser of a dialysis machine made of long tubes of selective permeable membrane (like cellulose) which are coiled in a tank containing dialysing Solution. The dialysing Solution contains water, glucose and salts in similar concentrations to those in normal blood. As the patient’s blood passes through the dialysing Solution most of the waste like urea present in it pass through the selectively permeable cellulose tubes into the dialysing Solution. The clean blood is pumped back into a vein of the patients arm.

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.
