prevent food from clogging these airways. 16. During digestion‚ enzymes such as amylase break chemical bonds between the sugar monomers in starches. Digestive enzymes also break down foods and make the nutrients available to the body. 17. Mechanical digestion includes the muscles of the stomach contracting to mix stomach fluids and food which produces a mixture known as chyme. Chemical digestion includes the production of acids that aid the digestion and absorption of food. 18. In the stomach‚ hydrochloric

steps that take place in many different organs.<br><br>The first step of digestion begins at the mouth‚ where the food enters the mouth. Saliva is secreted from the salivary glands. The saliva contains enzymes such as Ptyalin‚ which starts sugar digestion. The enzymes also provide lubrication to help in the chewing and swallowing of the food. The food then goes down the esophagus and into the stomach‚ where the next step of digestion takes place. <br><br>In the stomach‚ a mixture of hydrochloric acid

mainly digested. Then it goes into the liver where it gets transported into the intestines and out the anus. What is the difference between mechanical and chemical digestion? The difference between mechanical and chemical digestion is that mechanical mainly happens with animals teeth and rarely happens with anything else. Chemical Digestion mainly happens with the acids and chemicals inside the animals body’s. The difference is that one is manual and one is automatic. Most animals have both these features

Observation of Digestive and Circulatory System Introduction/Background: This week’s lab is about digestion and the circulatory system. Students will be learning about the different types of digestion and circulatory systems for different types of animals. Students will learn not only about the mechanical and chemical components of digestion‚ but also the complete and incomplete digestions. The lab will also teach the open and closed‚ single and double‚ circulation patterns. Several different models

digestive enzymes and other chemicals acting on food as it passes through the GI trac In chemical digestion‚ large food molecules are reduced to smaller molecules that can be absorbed through the lining of the intestinal wall and then distributed to body cells for use. This process of altering the chemical and physical composition of food so that it can be absorbed and used by body cells is known as digestion‚ and it is the function of the digestive system Part of the digestive system‚ the large intestine

Hitler’s rise to power occurred in the post World War phase when Germany suffered from a spate of economic and social problems. Hitler was a cunning and intelligent man who found opportunity within every event and circumstance. He employed a variety of methods in his rise to power‚ each method specifically suitable for helping him rise a level higher in his gradual progression to dictatorship. Hitler’s initial method in his bid for power largely consisted of rallies and speeches through which
