Answer:

D.) Water is recovered.

Explanation:

Large intestine is a part of alimentary canal. The food gets digested by the time it reaches here. So large intestine has no role in digestion. Its main function is to absorb water from the remaining undigested food matter so that solid stool can be produced and wastes be eliminated from the body. The absorbed water is returned to the body and reutilized.

Large intestine has a lining of mucosa which has tiny indentations called as crypts of Lieberkühn. They have many glands and goblets cells that are involved in absorption of fluids and secretion.

bonufazy [111]

Answer: It will affect muscle contraction because it is needed for the formation of muscle contraction cross-bridge.

Explanation: During muscle contraction calcium binds to troponin, a protein complex that regulates muscle contraction by exposing the binding site of actin filament. Actin filament active site is where myosin head binds to, creating a cross-bridge using enzyme ATPase to speed the reaction. Calcium ion are needed to activate troponin movement, otherwise it stays in its inactive form blocking the active site of actin filament. Without calcium ions, troponin will not move and there will be no muscle contractions.
