The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding irregular bowel movement but solid feces being egested, we will analyze each option provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question states that there is an irregular bowel movement, but the feces that are egested are solid. This indicates a condition where the frequency of bowel movements is not normal, yet the stool is not loose or watery. 2. **Analyzing Option 1: Diarrhea**: - Diarrhea is characterized by frequent bowel movements that are loose, watery, and unformed. This does not match the description in the question since the feces mentioned are solid. - **Conclusion**: Diarrhea is not the correct answer. 3. **Analyzing Option 2: Roughage Consumption**: - Roughage, also known as dietary fiber, refers to parts of plant foods that the body cannot digest. While consuming roughage can affect bowel movements, it does not specifically relate to irregular bowel movements with solid feces. - **Conclusion**: Roughage consumption does not fit the criteria provided in the question. 4. **Analyzing Option 3: Constipation**: - Constipation is defined as having infrequent bowel movements, where the stools become hard and difficult to pass. This aligns with the description of irregular bowel movements, and the stools being solid. - **Conclusion**: Constipation is a strong candidate for the correct answer. 5. **Analyzing Option 4: Rich Fiber Diet**: - A rich fiber diet typically promotes regular bowel movements and can lead to softer stools. This does not correlate with the condition of having irregular bowel movements with solid feces. - **Conclusion**: A rich fiber diet is not the correct answer. 6. **Final Conclusion**: Based on the analysis, the correct answer is **Constipation** as it matches the description of having irregular bowel movements while still producing solid feces.

Assertion: Water and electrolytes are almost fully absorbed in the large intestine. Reason: In large intestine, haustral contraction (slow semgmenting movements) roll the forming faeces over and over, causing absorption of water and electrolytes.

The colloidal particles are electrically charged as a indicated by their migration towards cathode or anode under the applied electric field. In a particular colloidal system, all particles carry either positive charge or negative charge. The electric charge on colloidal particles orginate in several ways. According to preferential adsorption theory, the freshly obtained precipitate particles adsorb ions from the dispersion medium, which are common to their lattice and acquire the charge of adsorbed ions. For example, For example, freshly obtained Fe(OH)_(3) precipitated is dispersed, by a little FeCl_(3) , into colloidal solution owing to the adsorption of Fe^(3+) ions in preference. Thus sol particles will be positively charged. In some cases the colloidal particles are aggregates of cations or anions having ampiphilic character. When the ions posses hydrophobic part (hydrocarbon end) as well as hydrophilic part (polar end group), they undergo association in aqueous solution to form particles having colloidal size. The formation of such particles, called micelles plays a very important role in the solubilization of water insoluble substances, (hydrocarbon, oils, fats, grease etc.). In micelles, the polar end groups are directed towards water and the hydrocarbon ends into the centre. The charge on sol particles of proteins depends on the pH. At low pH, the basic group of protein molecule is ionized (protonated) and at higher pH (alkaline medium), the acidic group is ionized. At isoelectric pH, characteristic to the protein, both basix and acidic groups are equally ionized. The stability of colloidal solution is attributed largely to the electric charge of the dispersed particles. This charge causes them to be coagulated or precipitated. On addition of small amount of electrolytes, the ions carrying oppiste charge are adsorbed by sol particles resulting in the neutralization of their charge. When the sol particles either with no charge or reduced charge, come closer due to Brownian movement, they coalesce to form bigger particles resulting in their separation from the dispersion medium. This is what is called coagulating or precipitation of the colloidal solution. The coagulating power of the effective ion, which depend on its charge, is expressed in terms of its coagulating value, defined as its minimum concentration (m mol/L) needed to precipitate a given sol. A gelatin sol at pH less than the isoelectric value is subjected to an electric field. The sol particles migrate toward :

Their coagulating values will be in the order :
