Question:

What is the role of the liver in the digestive system of frogs?

Options:

Produces bile

Produces insulin

Produces gastric juices

Produces pancreatic juice

Correct Answer:

Produces bile

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) - Produces bile

The liver plays a crucial role in the digestive system of frogs by producing bile. Bile is a digestive fluid that is stored in the gall bladder before being released into the duodenum (the first part of the small intestine). Bile helps in the emulsification of fats, breaking them down into smaller droplets. This process facilitates the action of digestive enzymes on fats and aids in their digestion and absorption in the intestine.

Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas, not the liver. Gastric juices are produced by the stomach, and pancreatic juice is produced by the pancreas. Therefore, the correct answer is (A) Produces bile.
