721. Read the given paragraph where few words
have been italicised.
The gall bladder secretes bile juice which
is stored in the liver. Bile breaks down
fats into tiny droplets that can be digested
and absorbed more easily. The digestive
juices then act on these tiny droplets to
form simpler compounds known as amino
acids and glycerol.
Select the incorrect statement regarding this.
(A) The positions of gall bladder and liver
should be interchanged.
(8) Amino acids should be replaced with
fatty acids.
(C) Fats should be replaced with starch.
(D) Glycerol should not be replaced as it
is correctly mentioned.
