Explanation / Answer

25. Option b is correct. A positive feedback process involve release of something in presence of excess amount of target while a negative feedback process involve inhibition of release. Here in the presence of excess amount of food activate both secretion and thus this is the example of positive feedback.

26. Option a is correct. About 9 liters of fluid pass through the gastrointestinal system each day, and only about 2 liters are ingested, the rest represent secretions from the system itself. About half, 3.5, liters is secreted from the exocrine glands, the salivary glands, the stomach and the liver, the other half is secreted by the epithelial cells of the of the digestive tract it self.
