3- i=> check out the link http://sg.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20120402045426AA6eDTH
4=> the colon's function is to absorb the remaining water from indigestible food matter; to accept and stores food remains that were not digested in the small intestine; and to eliminate solid waste (feces) from the body. so when the colon is removed, these functions are not carried out which may lead to many excretory system problems...

hey again.... i checked out abt dat taxis thing and it says it is restricted in cells that possess any organ having functions related to locomotion (flagella, cilia,etc) which means it can only take place in unicellular organisms lyk some bacteria that dont have flagella... bt in the IGCSE study guide they have taken an example of woodlice in choice chambers!?!?!... m reely confused pls help..:(
