The ______ helps in mixing saliva with food.
- Tongue
- Teeth
- Bladder
- Kidney
Correct Answer

A. Tongue

Explanation

The tongue helps in mixing saliva with food. The tongue is a muscular organ located in the mouth that plays a crucial role in the process of digestion. It aids in the movement of food within the mouth, helps to shape and position the food for chewing, and mixes the food with saliva, which contains enzymes that begin the process of breaking down carbohydrates. The tongue also helps in swallowing by pushing the food towards the throat.

The stomach’s inner lining produces three things: • __________________: It protects the lining of the stomach from harmful effects of HCl. • ___________________: The acid kills many bacteria that enter along with the food and makes the medium in the stomach acidic. ________________: They help in digestion of the food by breaking down the proteins present in the food into simpler substances.(Choose the correct answers)

- Anus
- Stomach
- Hydrochloric acid
- Pancreas
- Digestive juices
Correct Answer(s)

A. Mucous
A. Hydrochloric acid
A. Digestive juices

Explanation

The stomach's inner lining produces mucous, which protects the lining from the harmful effects of hydrochloric acid. Hydrochloric acid is produced in the stomach and helps kill bacteria that enter along with the food, as well as making the stomach acidic. Digestive juices are also produced in the stomach and help break down proteins in the food into simpler substances during digestion.

There are three glands associated with the alimentary canal that secrete digestive juices that are used to convert complex food substances into simpler substances.(Check them)
- Liver
- Pancreas
- Salivary gland
- Anus
Correct Answer(s)

A. Liver
A. Pancreas
A. Salivary gland

Explanation

The correct answer is Liver, Pancreas, and Salivary gland. These three glands are associated with the alimentary canal and secrete digestive juices. The liver produces bile, which helps in the digestion and absorption of fats. The pancreas secretes pancreatic juice, which contains enzymes that break down carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. The salivary glands produce saliva, which contains enzymes that initiate the digestion of carbohydrates in the mouth. The anus is not a gland associated with the secretion of digestive juices.

A. Small intestine
A. Large intestine
A. Anus

Explanation

The given answer includes all the correct parts of the canal. The mouth or buccal cavity is where the digestion process begins as food enters the body. The food pipe or esophagus is responsible for transporting food from the mouth to the stomach. The stomach is where food is further broken down by stomach acids. The small intestine is where most of the digestion and absorption of nutrients takes place. The large intestine is responsible for absorbing water and electrolytes from the remaining food material. The anus is the final part of the canal where waste material is eliminated from the body.

Chilies and junk food are not directly linked to tooth decay as they do not contain high sugar content.
