BIOLOGY ‘S ASSIGNMENT 1/What is the purpose of digestion? * Break down food‚ absorb nutrient from food into body tissues and systems in body 2What is the name given to mammal only eat meat ? * Carnivores 3/What is the name of mammal only eat plant? * Herbivores 4/What is the difference between a fore-gut fermenter and hind-gut fermenter? Example? Because plant cells have tough cellulose cell walls and herbivore are not able to digest‚ they use micro- organisms that live symbiotically

proteins (SGLT) in membrane help absorb glucose & galactose Fructose absorbed by facilitated diffusion then converted to glucose inside the cell Protein Digestion & Absorption Pepsin has optimal pH of 1.5 to 3.5 -- inactivated when passes into duodenum & mixes with alkaline pancreatic juice (pH 8) Pancreatic enzymes take over protein digestion by hydrolyzing polypeptides into shorter oligopeptides Brush border enzymes finish the task producing amino acids that are absorbed into the intestinal epithelial

The small intestine (or small bowel) is the part of the gastrointestinal tract following the stomach and followed by the large intestine‚ and is where much of the digestion and absorption of food takes place. It receives bile juice and pancreatic juice through heptopancreatic duct‚ controlled by Spincter of oddi. Ininvertebrates such as worms‚ the terms "gastrointestinal tract" and "large intestine" are often used to describe the entire intestine. This article is primarily about the human gut‚ though

I will be swallowed by a 55 year old man‚ while he is eating his meal consisting of a hamburger‚ French fries‚ and a root beer. I will be piloting my sub through his gastrointestinal tract to monitor the digestion of his meal‚ I will be describing all major structures I go through. Digestion begins in the mouth. A brain reflex triggers the flow of saliva when we see or even think of food. Saliva moistens the food while the teeth chew it up and make it easier to swallow. Amylase‚ which is the digestive

the landfills. By interviewing professionals in the industry that have an extensive knowledge in the field and obtaining information from internet sources and books‚ a few possible methods were found‚ such as: composting‚ animal feed‚ anaerobic digestion and Gore Cover. The advantages and disadvantages of each method were then compared‚ by using indicators such as cost‚ efficiency and end products. The comparison presented the most feasible method for the food waste management not only because of

also has to excrete waste. In other words‚ the food we eat consists of large lumps of material. We must bite off small pieces and chew them up into even smaller ones before swallowing them. There are two types of digestion: Mechanical and chemical. The teeth carry out mechanical digestion. There are 4 types of teeth: Incisors: 8 front teeth 4 on the top and 4 on the bottom. Shaped for biting and cutting. Canines 4 teeth located on either side of the incisors. 2 on the top and 2 on the bottom. Shaped

average person eat food we don’t think about all the things your body have to do just to digest what we ate this short essay I will explain to you the process of how we digest food. Digestion times vary between people but on the average it takes 24-72 hours for our body’s to digest food. The first process with digestion is ingestion which means the chewing process while we chew food it’s broken up in the mouth with saliva and forms into a ball for swallowing called bolus the amylase in our saliva
