Open in App
Solution

Cow uses holozoic mode of nutrition.

Holozoic mode of nutrition is the type of heterotrophic nutrition in which food is taken in solid/liquid form from outside and is digested inside their body, this mode of nutrition is known as holozoic mode of nutrition.

The steps involved in holozoic nutrition are

  1. Ingestion – taking in food materials through mouth
  2. Digestion – breaking down of food by enzymes
  3. Absorption – necessary nutrients get absorbed in the intestine
  4. Assimilation – the absorbed nutrients get mixed with blood and carried to the required areas
  5. Egestion – unwanted and un digested matters come out of the body through anus.
