Digestion/ Absorption and Homeostasis In order to survive‚ our bodies must bring in energy and nutrients for the cells of the body through eating and digestion of food. To be carried to the cells of the body by the blood stream‚ food must be broken down to molecules. This breaking down of food into molecules‚ small enough to be absorbed into and carried through the blood stream‚ is carried out by the digestive system through the process of digestion and absorption. Digestion is the process of

Nutritional Revert I am typically somewhat healthy; I try to eat right and workout several times a week. I feel as though I get plenty of physical activity‚ but maybe by nutritional diet is not as good as I thought. I feel as though I have reverted back to old habits of skipping meal‚ making poor eating habits‚ and not eating enough from every food group. I need to develop a system to make sure I am eating properly‚ working out regularly‚ and then able to pass these habits off to my children.

PHYSICAL SCIENCE physical change-changes affecting the form of a chemical substance‚Physical changes are used to separate mixtures into their component compounds Example:breaking glass Chemical changes- when a substance combines with another to form a new substance ‚called chemical synthesis. Example: burning wood Law of Conservation of Mass-The law of conservation of mass states that mass in an isolated system is neither created nor destroyed by chemical reactions or physical transformations

Therefore‚ how do we prevent childhood obesity and what strategies can be implemented that will increase and promote awareness of increased physical activity amongst young children? A whole of society approach can play a major role in addressing and or preventing obesity. If young children can be educated and informed about the important benefits of physical activity and a healthy lifestyle through participation of family‚ media‚ health and school environments‚ and apply what they learn to everyday habits

nutrients when replenishing glycogen store? The project that I am conducting is concerning the impact of the consumption of chocolate milk and its effects on protein turnover‚ muscle glycogen and performance during recovery from endurance exercise (2). The research regarding this material is relevant because it can possibly affect the way individuals replenish their glycogen stores following exercise to further improve their performance and over all fitness.

a one-year physical education course in our school for all the students because it can be beneficial. Having a physical education course can help the student maintain in shape and strength. Some indoor activities for the students that I think they should do is jogging‚ running‚ cycling‚ dancing‚ swimming‚ climbing stairs‚ stretching‚ sit-ups‚ push-ups‚ leg lifts‚ squats‚ weight lifting. Jogging‚ running‚ cycling‚ dancing‚ climbing stairs and swimming is all part of aerobic activities‚ which are

Physical Science lab #5 Objective The goal of this experiment is to develop a theory‚ which allows us to understand the motion of a marble. Materials Wooden roller coaster‚ marble‚ ruler‚ timer‚ clamp‚ physics stand. Theory In this experiment‚ we are finding the Conservation of Energy. Energy is neither created nor destroyed. Energy is summed up into two different properties: Potential energy and Kinetic energy. The law of Energy states that: Total Energy = Potential

Digestion is a process in which the food that we eat is broken down into tiny nutrients to be taken in by the body. Within the human digestive system‚ chemical and physical reactions occur that allow for the digestion and the absorption of proteins into the bloodstream. The purpose of this paper is to show how chemistry relates to the daily functions within the body. There are two types of digestion processes‚ which are called mechanical and chemical digestion. Mechanical digestion includes the
