In human being, the holozoic nutrition takes place in five steps:
1. Ingestion. The process of taking food inside the body is called ingestion.
2. Digestion. In digestion, the ingested food is converted into simple form with the help of digestive enzymes.
3. Absorption. In this stage the food digested in second step is absorbed into the cells of body.
4. Assimilation. Assimilation is the process of utilising the food absorbed in third step by various cells of the body.
5. Egestion. Egestion is the final step of holozoic nutrition in which the undigested food is removed from the body.

Each capillary cluster in the kidney is associated with the cup-shaped end of a tube that collects the filtered urine (see adjoining figure). Each kidney has large numbers of these filtration units called nephrons packed close together. Some substances in the initial filtrate, such as glucose, amino acids, salts and a major amount of water, are selectively re-absorbed as the urine flows along the tube. The amount of water reabsorbed depends on how much excess water there is in the body, and on how much of dissolved waste there is to be excreted. The urine forming in each kidney eventually enters a long tube, the ureter, which connects the kidneys with the urinary bladder. Urine is stored in the urinary bladder until the pressure of the expanded bladder leads to the urge to pass it out through the urethra. The bladder is muscular, so it is under nervous control, as we have discussed elsewhere. As a result, we can usually control the urge to urinate.

There is a pair of bean-shaped organs P in the human body towards the back, just above the waist. A waste product Q formed by the decomposition of unused proteins in the liver is brought into organ P through blood by an artery R. The numerous tiny filters S present in organ P clean the dirty blood by removing the waste product Q. The clean blood goes into circulation through a vein T. The waste substance Q, other waste salts, and excess water form a yellowish liquid U which goes from organ P into a bag-like structure V through two tubes W. This liquid is then thrown out of the body through a tube X.

Question. Name (i) liquid U (ii) structure V (iii) tubes W, and (iv) tube X.  

Answer

(i) Urine (ii) Bladder (iii) Ureters (iv) Urethra

Question. What is (i) organ P, and (ii) waste substance Q?  

Answer

(i) Kidneys  (ii) Urea

Question. Name (i) artery R, and (ii) vein T. 

Answer
