The Story of a Cheese Sandwich. A cheese sandwich is made up of – well‚ bread and cheese. The bread’s made of carbohydrates and fibre and the cheese of fat‚ protein and calcium. First the sandwich is chewed with our teeth; the incisor teeth and canine teeth bite it into chunks. The premolar and molar’s grind the chunks of food into much smaller pieces. Saliva’s produced that helps the food become a paste. Here‚ the amylase enzymes turn the starch molecules (from the bread) into maltose – which

I have always been interested in the human body. So why not learn more about it? When I get older I want to be an orthodontist. Learning about digestive system helps me learn more about how the body works. Before I started this research I didn’t really know that much about the digestive system. I mostly knew the basics‚ like that food moves from the mouth to the throat to the stomach and then leaves the body. But in reality there is much more to digestion that I didn’t know about. I found plenty

Biohybrid devices can be used to prevent diseases such as liver failure and diabetes. For persons at risk of developing type I diabetes mellitus (such as genetically predisposed individuals) or pre-diabetic individuals‚ their islets cells of Langerhans can be protected by biohybrid devices (Ricchie). These biohybrid

the ear. The digestive system consists of the organs of the digestive tract‚ or food tube‚ and the digestive glands. From the esophagus‚ swallowed food moves into the stomach and then into the small intestine. Bile is a digestive juice made by the liver and stored in the gallbladder. Bile flows into a tube called the common bile duct‚ into which pancreatic juice‚ a digestive juice from the pancreas‚ also flows. The contents of the common bile duct flow into the small intestine‚ where most of the digestion

does it take to transform that last swallow into the energy our body needs to sustain itself? In the case of lipid digestion‚ the real magic occurs throughout the gastrointestinal tract with a synergistic collaboration from the accessory organs: the liver‚ gallbladder and pancreas. Understanding the whole process of digestion proves to not only be amazing‚ but also provides a deep appreciation for all of the unconscious efforts our body orchestrates to maintain our way of life. Like all other foods

kidneys control the electrolytes in our blood and promote blood and bone formation via hormones. Above all‚ these organs filter and remove toxins via the bladder. Gallbladder is a tiny sac. It stores bile when it gets released by the liver. Found just below your liver‚ gallbladder uses the cystic duct to release bile into the small intestines. Bile breaks down fatty foods. Unless it feels pain‚ most people don’t even know they have an organ as essential as the gallbladder. And when it is problematic

into a rat will upregulate miR-155 expression in liver tissue. It is known that miR-155 is overexpressed in HCC tissue but the cause of it remains mysterious. By experimentally testing the effect of AFB1 on miR-155 we will be able to create a link between the two thus providing a cause and effect. If AFB1 increases miR-155 expression‚ we will know that it may contribute to tumorigenesis of HCC by stimulating proliferation of cancer cells in the liver. Moreover‚ miR-155 expression can also serve as
