Option 2 : B and C

Concept:

  • The digestive system of the human consists of an alimentary canal and associated digestive glands.
  • The alimentary canal consists of the mouth, buccal cavity, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, rectum, and anus.
  • The accessory digestive glands include the salivary gland, the liver, and the pancreas.
  • Saliva contains a starch digestive enzyme called salivary amylase.
  • The food is passed through the pharynx which is further carried down through the esophagus by peristalsis into the stomach.
  • In the stomach mainly protein digestion takes place.
  • Then the food enters the duodenum portion of the small intestine and is acted on by the pancreatic juice, bile, and finally by the enzymes in the succus entericus so that the digestion of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats is completed. 
  • The undigested food enters the caecum of the large intestine.
  • The undigested waste materials are finally egested out through the anus.

Explanation:

  • The small intestine is highly coiled measuring about 22 feet (7m) and the longest part of our digestive system whereas the large intestine measures about 6 feet, much shorter than the small intestine.
  • The ingested food enters the duodenum portion of the small intestine and receives secretions from the liver and the pancreas.
  • The liver is the largest gland of the body weighing about 1.2 to 1.5 kg in an adult and secretes bile juice.

  • Pancreatic juice contains digestive enzymes that pass to the small intestine where they help to break down the carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids (fats) into simpler forms.

  • Thus, from the above discussion, it is clear that statements B and C are correct.

All actions to address climate change ultimately involve costs. Funding is vital in order for countries like India to design and implement adaptation and mitigation plans and projects. The problem is more severe for developing countries like India, which would be one of the hardest hit by climate change, given its need to finance development. Most countries do indeed treat climate change as real threat and are striving to address it in a more comprehensive and integrated manner with the limited resources at their disposal. With reference to the above passage, the following assumptions have been made: 1. Climate change is not a challenge for developed countries. 2. Climate change is a complex policy issue and also a development issue for many countries. 3. Ways and means of finance must be found to enable developing countries to enhance their adaptive capacity. Which of the above assumptions is/are valid?

In the following question, the 1st and the last part of the sentence/passage are numbered 1 and 6. The rest of the sentence/ passage is split into four parts and named P, Q, R and S. These four parts are not given in their proper order. Read the sentence/ passage and find out which of the four combinations is correct. 1. Jupiter has 2.5 times more mass than all the other planets of the solar system combined and is 11 times as large as Earth in diameter. P. Jupiter is so large that scientists believe it almost became a star: as the gases and dust contracted to the form the planet, Q. But there was not enough mass available to create the temperature needed to start a fusion reaction such as that of the Sun. R. Thus, Jupiter has been cooling down ever since.  S. gravitational forces created tremendous pressure and the temperature inside the core—as high as tens of thousands of degrees. 6. Even so, Jupiter radiates about as much heat as it receives from the Sun.?
