What would have happened if cockroach did not have gizzard?

Answer»

1. The gizzard in cockroach is a spherical organ which has chitinous teeth and bristles. 

2. The chitinous teeth present in gizzard are responsible for crushing the food and the bristles help to filter the food. 

3. If the cockroach did not have gizzard, the food will not be crushed into small particles and unfiltered food will enter the hindgut. Thus, digestion will be affected in the absence of gizzard.
