Checkpoint: Human Digestion SCI/241 June 4‚ 2013 The path that food follows through the digestive system is very interesting. First you put the food to your mouth‚ take a bite‚ and chew. The salivary glands begin the digestive process at the sight and smell of food. After food enters the mouth and is moistened by saliva‚ it transforms into a bolus. Once the bolus leaves the mouth‚ it moves into the pharynx‚ where it can be swallowed. The bolus then moves from the pharynx to the stomach

same with animals. Animals feel pain. Animals have emotion. Animals are intelligent. But why is it that animals are treated like dirt‚ when they provide humans with joy‚ income and entertainment. If animals mean so much to our economy and lifestyle‚ why are we hurting them and making them experience pain? The feeling we hate so much. As a country we heavily rely on the production of dairy products and red meat. This is our largest export and we rely heavily on factory farming to provide a large

A common‚ yet often ignored‚ issue in today’s society is obesity in young adults. Everywhere you go there is streets crammed with fast food restaurants serving way more food than people actually need. The foods‚ along with their prices‚ are irresistible just because they seem like a value. Of course we could try regulating our diets by reading nutritional facts‚ then again‚ who actually understands what it all means. Tackling this has one solution that may not be the easiest‚ but can result in a

1. Candy bars are well known to supply large amounts of energy for metabolism. With all this energy trapped inside‚ how can the candy bar sit still on the shelf in the grocery store? Indeed‚ candy bars have a significant amount of carbohydrates (mostly simple‚ such as sugar) in their composition. The energy stored within these carbohydrates is chemical potential energy‚ and cannot actually be released or converted into usable chemical energy until it is eaten and taken up into the body‚ where various

Biology Digestion IA 13/03/2013 Jason Gao Rationale: Digestion is the chemical breakdown of food into smaller components that are more easily absorbed. Digestion is a form of catabolism: a breakdown of large food molecules to smaller ones. When food enters into stomach‚ gastric juice starts protein digestion. Gastric juice mainly contains hydrochloric acid and pepsin. The pH value of hydrochloric in the stomach

Mitochondrial metabolism and ROS generation play crucial roles in adipogenic differentiation [37‚ 47-49]. It has been investigated that exogenous hydrogen peroxide increased adipogenic differentiation of MSCs‚ while mitochondrial-targeted antioxidants decreased it. Moreover‚ ROS that generated through
