Question
Distinguish between intracellular and extracellular digestion.
Solution
| Intracellular digestion | Extracellular digestion | |
| 1 | The digestion of food occurs within the cell. | The digestion occurs in the cavity of alimentary canal. |
| 2 | Digestive enzymes are secreted by the surrounding cytoplasm into the food vacuole. | Digestive enzymes are secreted by special cells into the cavity of alimentary canal. |
| 3 | Digestive products are diffused into the cytoplasm. | Digestive products diffuse across the intestinal wall into various parts of the body. |
| 4 | It is a less efficient method. | It is a more efficient method of digestion. |
| 5 | It occurs in unicellular organisms and some other lower organisms. | It occurs in multicellular organisms. |
