21 multiple choice 1 point
this organ absorbs water from the waste before it exits the body.
large intestine
liver
pancreas
small intestine

Explanation:

• For question 20: The pancreas secretes pancreatic juice containing enzymes into the small intestine to aid in digestion. The large intestine mainly absorbs water and forms feces. The stomach secretes gastric juice (not into the small intestine directly in the context of this question's description). The rectum is the final part of the large intestine for storing feces.
• For question 21: The large intestine absorbs water from indigestible food matter (waste), concentrating it into feces. The liver has functions like detoxification and producing bile (which is stored in the gall - bladder and released into the small intestine). The pancreas secretes digestive enzymes (as in question 20). The small intestine is mainly for nutrient absorption (not water from waste in the way described here).

Answer:

1. D. pancreas
2. A. large intestine
