Question 1
1 / -0

Which of the following is responsible for partial digestion in the mouth of ruminants?

A
High intake of cellulose

B
High intake of lactose

C
High intake of glucose

D
None of the above

Solution

Ruminants eat plant materials that contain cellulose. High intake of cellulose is responsible for partial digestion in the mouth. This partial digestion of cellulose is called cud. It is digested partially in the mouth by the process of regurgitation.
So the correct answer is 'High intake of cellulose'.
Question 2
1 / -0

In ruminants, bacterial action occurs in the _______.

A
Reticulum

B
Omasum

C
Abomasum

D
Rumen

Solution

The stomach of a ruminant animal is divided into four chambers - rumen, reticulum, omasum and abomasum. The swallowed grass is quickly sent into the rumen, where the partial digestion of swallowed food occurs with the help of some bacteria present in there and cud is formed. These bacteria help in the breakdown and digestion of cellulose.
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
Question 3
1 / -0

Which are cutting teeth in humans?

A
Canines

B
Molars

C
Premolars

D
Incisors

Solution

The incisors are called cutting teeth because they present a sharp cutting edge, adapted for biting the food. They are eight in number, and form the four front teeth in each dental unit.
So, option D is the correct option.
Question 4
1 / -0

Number of milk teeth found in humans is

A
32

B
20

C
52

D
12

Solution

In human, the deciduous dentition consist of 20 total teeth with dental formula 2102 indicating two incisors, one canine, zero premolars and two molars in each quadrant.
So, option B is the correct option.
Question 5
1 / -0

Number of tonsils is

A
2

B
4

C
6

D
8

Solution

B. 4
Solution: The tonsils are part of the lymphatic system, which helps to fight infections. There are total 4 set of tonsils : the adenoid tonsil (pharyngeal tonsil), two tubal tonsils, two palatine tonsils, and the lingual tonsils.
So the correct answer is "4".
Question 6
1 / -0

Which teeth of humans are shovel-shaped and used for nibbling, cutting, and tearing?

A
Canines

B
Premolars

C
Molars

D
Incisors

Solution

The central incisors and lateral incisors are mostly used for biting and cutting, and canine teeth are used for tearing food. The premolars, molars and wisdom teeth are used for chewing and grinding food.
Hence, the correct answer is (D)
Question 7
1 / -0

Which of the following phenomena helps in the degradation of complex substances of food into simpler ones?

A
Digestion

B
Ingestion

C
Excretion

D
Assimilation

Solution

The process in the alimentary canal by which food is broken up physically, as by the action of the teeth, and chemically, as by the action of enzymes, and converted into a substance suitable for absorption and assimilation into the body.

So, the correct option is 'Digestion'.
Question 8
1 / -0

Which of the following animals are involved in the fluid feeding mode?

A
Honey bees

B
Amoeba

C
Cow

D
None of the above

Solution

Fluid-feeding insects, such as butterflies, moths, and flies (20% of all animal species), are faced with the common selection pressure of having to remove and feed on trace amounts of fluids from porous surfaces.
So, the correct option is 'Honey Bees".
Question 9
1 / -0

Similar cone-shaped teeth are

A
Diphyodont

B
Acrodont

C
Homodont

D
Thecodont

E
Heterodont

Solution

The same type of teeth are called homodont (homo is derived from the Greek word homos, meaning the same). Homodont animals have the same type of triangular-shaped teeth, called incisors. Maximum non-mammalian vertebrates have homodont dentition. For example, crocodile and shark.
So the correct answer is option C.
Question 10
1 / -0

Cud chewing animals are

A
Sanguivorous

B
Ruminants

C
Frugivores

D
Cannibals

Solution

Cattle get around this by chewing their food twice. First, they swallow the food and break it down with bacteria. Then they regurgitate the food and chew it properly. This is called chewing the cud. It is then swallowed and fully digested.
So, option B is the correct option.
