Very Good

The functions of the Digestive System:

* Ingestion
* Break down food into nutrient
*Absorb molecules into the bloodstream
*Rid the Body of indigestible remains

The Four stages to food processing:

A. Ingestion - taking in the foods and liquids.

B. Digestion - breaking down of food into nutrient
molecules.
C. Absorption - taking in nutrients by cells.
D. Egestion - removing leftover wastes.

The digestive system parts and their functions

MOUTH

to swallow.
PHARYNX :
 helps swallows the food
ESOPHAGUS
 Transport the food to the stomach.
STOMACH
 stores the food that mixes and churns with
 gastric juice that contain acid and protein
digesting enzyme called Pepsin.
LIVER:
 Produces bile to breaks down the fats and
filter it to builds up many biological
molecules.
PANCREAS:
 produce pancreatic juice that neutralizes
acidic stomach before going to the small
intestine.Makes insulin in which control sugar
in blood in the body.
GALLBLADDER
 it releases concentrated bile into the small
intestine.
SMALL INTESTINE:
 Complete digestion takes place and absorb
nutrient into blood or lymph.
LARGE INTESTINE:
 absorbs water,vitamins and mineral.Store and
form waste into feces.
RECTUM:
 store and expel feces.
ANUS:
 Opening to eliminate the waste/feces from our
digestive system. Yes, teacher
