Digestion and Absorption
So far, we have spent quite a bit of time discussing what to eat, and how much we should consume from each food group. However, it is equally important to understand how our body physiologically reacts to our food and portion choices. After viewing the Digestive System video- "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s06XzaKqELk", use the outline below to discuss the purpose and function of the human digestive system:
The Digestive Tract
Appraise the purpose and components of the digestive system during digestion and the absorption of nutrients.
The Mechanical Aspect of Digestion
Discuss the key mechanical processes involved with the digestion of a food item of your choice.
The Chemical Aspect of Digestion
Distinguish the mechanical and chemical digestive processes and discuss the role of enzymes and other gastric fluids in digesting sugar, starch, fiber, fat, and protein.
A Letter From Your Digestive Tract
