Digestion and Absorption Process — NEET Biology
🔥 Predicted for NEET 2027Food is captured by the bilobed tongue. Digestion of food takes place by the action of HCl and gastric juices secreted from the walls of the stomach. Partially digested food called chyme is passed from stomach to the first part of the small intestine, the duodenum. The pancreas, a composite gland, produces pancreatic juice containing enzymes. Pancreas through a common bile duct. Bile emulsifies fat and pancreatic juices digest carbohydrates and proteins. Final digestion takes place in the small intestine. Absorption of digested food takes place through the microvilli, the inner wall of intestine called villi and microvilli. The undigested solid waste moves into the rectum and passed out through cloaca.

Match the following structures of frog with their correct functions/characteristics: COLUMN I (Structure) 1. Sinus venosus 2. Villi and microvilli 3. Tympanum 4. Mesorchium 5. Cloaca COLUMN II (Function/Characteristic) A. Protects eyes and ears underwater; organ of hearing and balance B. Common chamber for passage of faeces, urine, and gametes C. Triangular chamber that opens into right atrium D. Finger-like folds for absorption of digested food E. Double fold of peritoneum attaching testis to kidney
View solution & NCERT explanation
Correct answer: A — 1–C, 2–D, 3–A, 4–E, 5–B
Sinus venosus → triangular structure joining right atrium (C). Villi and microvilli → increase surface area for absorption (D). Tympanum → external membrane for hearing and balance (A). Mesorchium → double fold of peritoneum attaching testis to kidney (E). Cloaca → common chamber for faeces, urine, gametes (B).
