Assertion : Diarrhoea is the abnormal frequent
movement of bowel and increased liquidity of
faeces that may be caused by microorganisms,
stress and milk sugar intolerance.
Reason : Mild diarrhoea is caused by taking
active trophozoites deposited on the food items

hominis of large intestine. Chyme passes
rapidly through the small intestine and faeces
in the large intestine. So, there is not enough
time for the absorption of water and electrolytes
by colon.
