16. The small intestine is longer in herbivore than in carnivore because herbivores eats only grass which is full of cellulose and the digestion of cellulose takes long time.
 
17. Bile is a digestive juice secreted by liver and stord in the gall bladder. The function of bile is to assist fat digestion and absorption in the gut.
 
18. Enzymes present in pancreatic juice are amylase, trypsin and lipase. Amylase converts starch into maltose. Trypsin breaks proteins into peptides. Lipase converts emulsified fats into fatty acids and glycerol.
