Question 1
The alimentary canal (digestive tract) has parts like mouth, esophagus, stomach, intestines, etc. Each part (e.g., mouth for chewing, stomach for churning and acid breakdown, intestines for absorption) plays a role in digestion. So the statement is true.
- Option a: Diverticulosis is the presence of diverticula (pouches) in the intestine, not inflammation from infection.
- Option b: Enteritis is inflammation of the intestine, often due to bacterial or viral infections.
- Option c: Appendicitis is inflammation of the appendix, not the intestine.
- Option d: Gastritis is inflammation of the stomach lining.
So the correct answer is b.
