I personally have never been in this journey but I’ve heard of this long process by my other peers. The fiber‚ potassium‚ and vitamins are all ready to be soaked up into this lucky person’s body for energy. My journey begins in the oral cavity. As I’m being chewed the teeth the teeth tear me apart into smaller pieces and the salivary glands produce saliva to break me down even further

Beny Beans Journey of the Digestive System By Riley Trachtenberg Ahhhh! Before I could believe it I was being chewed up by wired teeth. The salivary glands made me all soft and moist. I was formed into a bolus like my Italian meatball friends. I looked at my other bean friends and they all looked terrified.

THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM OF CHICKEN In most livestock‚ teeth function to grind feed into smaller particles. Birds must pass feed usually whole into the esophagus because they do not have teeth. Therefore‚ particles of poultry feed should be small enough to pass through the esophagus. Feed passes from the mouth and through the precrop esophagus to the crop. If the proventriculus and gizzard are full‚ feed is stored in the crop. Feed is also moistened in the crop. Feed passes from the crop through the

The human digestive system‚ like those of other vertebrates‚ is built around an alimentary canal - a one way tube that passes through the body. The function of the digestive system is to convert foods into simple molecules that can be absorbed and used by the cells of the body. Food enters the mouth‚ where the work of the digestive system begins. Chewing‚ which takes place in the mouth‚ seems simple enough - teeth tear and crush the moistened food to a fine paste until it is ready to be swallowed

Most people who are partying through the night at bars and nightclub aren’t wondering how alcohol affects their nervous system. The main goal is to get drunk and have a good time. Yet alcohol inhibits the brain’s ability to send signals to the spinal cord and nerve endings. The nervous system slows down greatly because it is absorbed right into the blood stream.

Case Study 20: The Digestive and Urinary Systems 1) Marissa‚ a newborn with a cleft lip and palate‚ is the third child of Juan and Maria. Both Juan and Maria are “visually alarmed” at Marissa’s appearance; however‚ Juan is more distant and reserved. Maria is very concerned with Marissa’s wellbeing and future and seems to take blame for Marissa’s physical condition. 2) The incidence of cleft lip (CL) with or without cleft palate (CP) is approximately 1 in 800 live births. The incidence of CP alone

are several different organ systems in the human body. Two of those systems are the digestive system and the urinary system. Both systems remove waste from the body but in an entirely different way. They also maintain homeostasis within our blood stream. Both systems are critical for survival. This paper will describe how each of those systems works on its own and also how they work together to maintain homeostasis for the body. How the Urinary and Digestive Systems Work Together to Maintain
