Digestive System Brochure
Today we are taking a trip through the digestive system so buckle up and get ready for a long ride.
The mouth is where Digestion starts with your saliva beginning to breakdown food after your teeth grind it up and your tongue mushes it against the roof of your mouth.
The esophagus is the transport "pipe" that connects your mouth to your stomach and moves the food to your stomach by contracting and relaxing muscles which makes it only able to move in one way.
The stomach s where the main process of breaking down the food occurs. The stomach uses extremely strong acids and muscle contractions to dissolve and breakdown the food that enters from the mouth.
The small intestine is where most of the nutrients from the food that you digest is taken. There are trillions on little protrusions called micro villi that increase surface area for absorption. The food is also broken down even more here. Enzymes from the pancreas and bile from the liver help breakdown the food even more.
The large intestine takes what is left from the small intestine to continue breaking down the food and turning it into waster. The large intestine uses muscle contractions to squeeze water out of whats left to preserve water loss and is also what makes stool solid. Then is moved to your colon.
What is left over from the large intestine is pushed into the rectum and the out through the anus to dispel the waste from our body.
