Little Rishi (student of class VI) was watching his favourite cartoon serial on television. Suddenly he got hiccups. His elder brother Shubham who was sitting near by him gave him a glass of water and suggested not to eat too fast in a hurry. Little Rishi got confused as he had heard that 'hicki' comes when someone remembers. He asked his father. His father smiled and explained him that it is only a myth. He also explained him the proper scientific reason behind it.

23.
..................... is the largest gland in the human body.
24.
Which teeth do you use for biting and cutting?
25.
Name the juice secreted by salivary gland?
1.
Large intestine absorbs the water from undigested food.
2.
(c)
absorb the digested food
3.
(a)
human beings do not have cellulose: digesting enzymes
4.
(a)
Autotrophs
5.
(a)
swallowing \(\rightarrow \) partial digestion \(\rightarrow \) chewing of cud \(\rightarrow \) complete digestion
6.
Cellulose is the carbohydrate that can be digested by ruminants but not by humans because ruminants have a large sac-like structure called rumen which is located between the small intestine and large intestine. Certain bacteria are present in rumen which helps in digesting cellulose.
7.
After surgical removal of gall bladder, A' would face problems in digestion of fat and fatty substances when consumed in bulk. This is because the bile juice stored in the gall bladder helps in digestion of fats.
8.
(a) Starch, because rest all are glands and starch is a type of carbohydrate.
(b) Stomach, because rest all are digestive glands and stomach is a digestive organ.
(c) Tongue, because rest all are digestive processes and tongue is a part of digestive system.
(d) Small intestine, because it carriers the process of digestion and rest are not involved in digestion.
9.
(i) It helps in talking.
(ii) It helps to mix saliva with the food.
(iii)It also helps in swallowing food.
10.
If we do not clean our teeth and mouth after eating, many harmful bacteria start to live in it. These bacteria breakdown the sugars present from the leftover food and release acids. The acids gradually damage the teeth. This is called tooth decay. It causes tooth loss in many cases.
11.
( )
Acid release
12.
(a) large intestine
(b) small intestine
(c) tongue
(d) liver

Animal nutrition includes nutrients, mode of intake of food and its utilisation in the body.
15.
Many animals including humans cannot digest cellulose. But ruminants can digest it. They have a large sac like structure called caecum between the small intestine and large intestine. The cellulose of the food is digested in this part by the action of certain bacteria which are not present in the humans.
16.
This is because the patient cannot digest the food and glucose needs no digestion.
17.

18.
(a) Hiccup is a choking sensation that produces a characteristic gulping sound repeatedly. It is called 'hicki' in our local language.
(b) Sometimes, when we eat too fast in a hurry or talk too much or laugh while eating, then a little of windpipe remains open due to which food particles may enter the windpipe. It may result in a choking sensation called hiccups.
(c) He is sincere and curious to know about the things at an early age.

| Incisors | 4 | 4 |
| Canines | 8 | 8 |
| Premolars | 8 | 8 |
| Molars | 8 | 12 |
(a) Yes, the difference has been observed in the number of molars.
(b) The number and type of teeth varries in an adult as compared to the child. Children have 28 teeth in their mouth.There are only four molars in each jaw.
While, adults have 32 teeth in their mouth which means six molars in each jaw.
20.
When the ingest food in our mouth, salivary glands of the mouth secrete saliva which moistens the food. It also converts the starch into sugar. The tongue helps in chewing by moving the food in various directions. Saliva contains enzyme called salivary amylase which converts starch into sugar.

From mouth, food goes into food pipe called oesophagus. As food enters into the food pipe, muscles of its wall starts contraction and relaxation movement. This movement is called peristaltic movement that pushes the food into the stomach. The peristaltic movement occurs throughout the alimentary canal. The oesophagus leads the food to a saclike structure called stomach. The food is churned and partly digested in the stomach. The semi-solid food passes from the stomach to much coiled tube-like structure called the small intestine. The small intestine serves two purposes-digestion and absorption of the digested food. It is about 20 feet long. The inner surface of the small intestine has a large number of finger-like projections called villi. The villi increase the surface area for the absorption of digested food. The absorbed food enters into the blood stream and carried away to various parts of the body for assimilation. The undigested food moves from the small intestine to the large intestine where mainly absorption of water from the undigestion takes place. From the large intestine, the undigested food passes to the rectum which pushes it out of the body through the opening called the anus as faeces.
21.
The food of ruminants like grass is rich in cellulose (a type of carbohydrate). Ruminants have a large sac-like structure between the small intestine and large intestine. The cellulose of the food is digested here by the action of certain bacteria which are not present in humans. In this way ruminants can digest the cellulose but many animals including human can not digest cellulose.
