they get from the poor- nutrient food(grass). 6. Compare the size and shape of the stomach of 3 mammals | Dog | cow | Honey possum | Size | Smaller than the cow, one-chamber stomachThe stomach’s volume takes 60-70% of the total capacity of digestive system | Biggest and longest in 3 mammalsFlexible wall to expand easily.The rumen itself can contain liquid about 30 litres | Two-chamber stomachThe main chamber is 11mm in lengthThe second chamber is about half of the main one * total size

A similarity that is present between the bear, lion, and koalas digestive system is that they all have small intestines. In all of the animals’ digestive system they have small intestine which absorbs all the nutrients and minerals from the food that they have eaten. Small intestine, or small bowel, is a hollow tube about 20 feet long that runs from the stomach to the beginning of the large intestine. The small intestine breaks down food from the stomach and absorbs much of the nutrients from the

The purpose of this lab was to see how the digestive system length of my body compares with a rabbit, dog and koala. This is a dilemma to find out without prior knowledge because of the small sizes of the animals and our large size in comparison. My data shows the lengths of these animals and my own digestive system. I found my own digestive system length by measuring the body parts that are associated with the digestive system. The measurements began at the mouth, where the digestion process begins

The Digestive System 1.1 The digestive system is comprised of a group of organs known as the alimentary canal, which is one continues tube that runs from the oral cavity to the anus. The second set of organs that make up the digestive system are the Accessory organs. The digestive system has six main functions: ingestion, secretion, mixing and movement, digestion, absorption, and excretion of food (Tortora & Derrickson, 2009). Alimentary canal Organ Structure Function Diagram Mouth The mouth is made

Digestive Enzymes As a young boy, while I was playing games on Nintendo Gameboy, I used to wonder would it be easier for human beings to get energy the same way as the Gameboy did. The Gameboy receives its own energy through batteries or charging; however, human beings receive energy in a different way. A couple years later, when I went to elementary school, I realized that we received energy through a simple and familiar process: ingestion. However, what happens after we chew and swallow food was

Digestive system and Urinary System The digestive system is a group of organs working together to convert food into energy. The food digested is also tied into basic nutrients to feed the body. The digestive system is something called the tube within a tube. This is because it is a hollow structure with two openings that run the height of your body. The digestive tract consists of two parts the gastrointestinal tract known as GI tract and a set of accessory organs. GI tract starting at the oral cavity

of the digestive tract and the accessory organs of the digestive system To discuss the regions of the digestive system, it seems more reasonable to start superiorly and work my way down. The digestive system as a whole can be broken down into two regions called the alimentary tract, and accessory organs (SEER, .n.d.) The Alimentary tract consists of the: mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestines, and large intestines. The accessory organs are there to aid the digestive system

Script Introduction: The digestive system is needed in order to break down food in order to be able to use the food as energy, and my group and I have simulated the digestive process of a muffin. Mouth: In the mouth, mastication in the form of chewing takes place, which is a type of mechanical digestion. Mastication occurs when the teeth, with the incisors simulated by the knife and the molars simulated by the motor and pestle, cut the food into smaller particles, which maximised surface area.

For the science fair project I have decided that I will test the enzymes in the digestive system on different food groups which will be processed and unprocessed foods. The processed foods that will be tested will include Doritos Cool Ranch, Fruit Loops, Slim Jim and the unprocessed foods are apples, spinach, carrots. This project divides into different subtopics the revolve around the project as a whole. The digestive system is first a review of the system and it processes, then there are enzymes

What is the digestive system? Why is digestion important? How does digestion work? How does food move through the GI tract? How do digestive juices in each organ of the GI tract break down food? What happens to the digested food molecules? How is the digestive process controlled? Points to Remember Clinical Trials What is the digestive system? The digestive system is made up of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract—also called the digestive tract—and the liver, pancreas, and gallbladder. The GI tract is
