Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

In humans, starch is digested in buccopharynageal cavity. Cellulose is not digested in the humans because cellulose contains `beta-1`, 4-linkage and vertebrates themselves donot posses any enzymes capable of hydrolysing `beta-`, 4-linkages. Protein is digested in stomach and fat in small intesstine. Thus, in the green otions, fat and cellulose reach totally undigested in the stomach of humans.
