  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Daily requirement of carbohydrate by an adult is
    Solution

    To calculate daily requirement of carbohydrate we need weight in pounds x 3.5 to 4.5 = number of grams of carbohydrates per day.

    Average Weight in pounds x 2.25 to 3.5 = number of grams of carbohydrates per day. The average 1,800-calorie diet should contain between 210 and 290 grams of carbohydrates each day for a healthy adult, which is equal to 45 to 65 percent of  daily calories.

    So, the correct answer is '250 gm'


  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Emulsification of fat molecule is carried out by ___.
    Solution

  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Food becomes ______ due to bile juice.
    Solution
    Bile juices are produced by the liver and their main function is to convert food into fatty acids. They kill the germs present in the food. They also reduces the acid content of the chime due to which food becomes alkaline.
    So the correct answer is 'Alkaline'.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Bile can be prevented to pass into duodenum by
    Solution

    A) Correct Option – 
    B) Explanation for correct option -

    • The sphincter of Oddi is a muscular valve which is mostly surrounding the exit of the bile duct and the pancreatic duct into the duodenum region.
    • The sphincter remains normally closed, opening only when a meal is eaten so that digestive juices can enter the duodenum and mix with food for the digestion process.
    • So bile can be prevented from entering the duodenum by the Sphincter of Oddi.

  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Brunners glands occur in ________.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Which is not a disorder of digestive system
    Solution
    • Emphysema is a lung condition that causes shortness of breath. In people with emphysema, the air sacs in the lungs (alveoli) are damaged. Over time, the inner walls of the air sacs weaken and rupture — creating larger air spaces instead of many small ones.
    • Jaundice, Constipation, and Vomiting are digestive system related disorders.
    Hence, the correct answer is (A)
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Fructose is absorbed into the blood through mucosa cells of the intestine by a process called _______.
    Solution
    A. Correct option -A
    B. Explanation for correct option 

    • Fructose is absorbed into the blood through mucosa cells of the intestine by a process called facilitated transport. Sucrose is converted into glucose and fructose by enzyme sucrase present in the small intestine. In this facilitated type of absorption, $$Na^+$$ is used. 
    • Simple diffusion is the process in which solute particles move along the concentration gradient. 
    • The co-transport mechanism is the process in which solute particles move down the concentration gradient.
    • Active transport is the process in which solute particles move from the lower region to a higher concentration.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Increased liquidity of faecal discharge associated with reduced absorption of food is _________.
    Solution
    • The increased liquidity of fecal discharge associated with reduced absorption of food is diarrhoea. Frequent diarrhoea causes dehydration and electrolyte balance.
    • In vomiting, the stomach content are forced upward through the oesophagus and pharynx and out of the mouth.
    • Indigestion is caused due to inadequate enzyme secretion, anxiety, spicy food, food poisoning, and overeating.
    • Constipation is the difficult defaecation caused by decreased motility of the intestine.
    • So, the correct answer is option D.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Secretin is produced by
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    In the gastrointestinal tract, the Meissner's plexus and the Auerbach's plexus occur respectively in the
    Solution
    Meissner's plexus lies in the submucosa of the intestinal wall while Auerbach's plexus are located between the inner circular and outer longitudinal layers of the muscularis externa.
