Bile is secreted by the liver and is stored in the gall bladder from where it enters the small intestine via a common duct.

Pseudopodia are developed in amoeba. Amoeba engulfs its food particles by forming pseudopodia around it. The food particle gets surrounded by encircling pseudopodia’s tips.

Anaerobic respiration (in absence of oxygen) in yeast is known as fermentation as ethanol (alcohol), carbon dioxide and 2 ATP molecules of energy is produced from glucose

Pancreas secretes pancreatic Juice which contains trypsin, lipase and pancreatic amylase. Trypsin digests the proteins, lipase breaks down the fat droplets already emulsifed by bile salts and pancreatic amylase breaks down the starch.

Small intestine receives Juices from liver, pancreas and walls of small intestine. Bile Juice from liver emulsifes the fats and makes the medium alkaline. Pancreas and small intestine Juices contain amylase, lipase and tryspin

The examples and the relation of animal group and heart are as Fishes have two chambered heart and exhibit single circulation while three chambered heart of amphibian and reptiles and four chambered heart of birds and mammals exhibit double circulation.

The oxygen during photosynthesis comes from split water.

Living organisms are well organised structures; they can have tissues, tissues have cells, cells have smaller components in them, and so on. Living creatures keep repairing and maintaining their structures
