The function of gizzard seen in grasshopper and cockroach digestive system is
The alimentary canal is a tubular structure, extending from the mouth to the anus present in the body cavity of grasshopper and cockroach. It is divided into three regions: foregut, midgut and hindgut.The mouth opens into a short tubular pharynx, leading to a narrow tubular passage called oesophagus. This, in turn, opens into a sac-like structure called crop used for storing food. The crop is followed by gizzard or proventriculus. Gizzard has an outer layer of thick circular muscles and thick inner cuticle forming six highly chitinous plate called teeth. Gizzard helps in grinding the food particles. Hence, the function of gizzard seen in the grasshopper and cockroach digestive system is the grinding of food materials.
So, the correct option is 'grinding of digestive enzymes'.
