Study and takes notes on the following sections on the website:
Digestive system
How does digestion work work (animation)
Why is digestion important?
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?
Make a study guide or flash cards to help you learn about the organs of the digestive system.

Case Study: Apple & Linguini – All about the digestive system
Watch the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efSiD49JAuE&feature=youtu.be
Answer the three questions on Google Classroom
We will continue our work on the case study: Apple and Linguini.
Select one food item that you like to eat. Examples would be a hot dog on a bun or a piece of cheese pizza. Using your understanding of the digestive system, identify the primary nutrient types (e.g., carbohydrate, protein, etc). Also, explain what happens to your food choice as it passes through the digestive tract. To do this, make a written flow chart, showing the food’s movements through each of the parts of the tract and telling what happens to it (e.g., what parts are broken down, where the nutrients go, what enzymes are involved) in the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, etc.
Complete this assignment in your notebook.
