This is the first part of ingestion and digestion. The chewing motion of the mouth breaks down food.

The incisors cut, the canines tear, the premolars grind and the molars crush. ]]> 2016-11-04 14:15:32 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahdawnwaddington/q32b6cwfqca5/wish/135386058 sarahdawnwaddington https://padlet.com/sarahdawnwaddington/q32b6cwfqca5/wish/135388847 Saliva breaks down complex carbs that are ingested. The saliva lubricates and dissolves the food, and the food particles that are dissolved in the saliva penetrate the cells of the taste buds, so we can taste the food.]]> 2016-11-04 14:22:19 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahdawnwaddington/q32b6cwfqca5/wish/135388847 sarahdawnwaddington https://padlet.com/sarahdawnwaddington/q32b6cwfqca5/wish/135391894 The throat behind the mouth, where food passes through when it is swallowed. The pharynx is divided into three sections: nasopharynx, oropharynx, and laryngopharnx.]]> 2016-11-04 14:29:05 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahdawnwaddington/q32b6cwfqca5/wish/135391894 sarahdawnwaddington https://padlet.com/sarahdawnwaddington/q32b6cwfqca5/wish/135395071 Carries food from the mouth to the stomach. The food triggers the peristalsis, which is a rhythmic contraction of smooth muscles in the esophagus that moves food down.  ]]> 2016-11-04 14:36:40 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahdawnwaddington/q32b6cwfqca5/wish/135395071 sarahdawnwaddington https://padlet.com/sarahdawnwaddington/q32b6cwfqca5/wish/135396569 Produces bile which in turn produces bile salts. The bile salts break down large fat globules. The liver detoxifies the body, but damaged liver cells are replaced with tissue, so it is not limitless. ]]> 2016-11-04 14:40:35 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahdawnwaddington/q32b6cwfqca5/wish/135396569 sarahdawnwaddington https://padlet.com/sarahdawnwaddington/q32b6cwfqca5/wish/135397786 The stomach contains acid that ranges from 2 to 3.0 acidity. It has mucus (protein made by epithelial mucus membrane) and peptin, which is a protein digesting enzyme. ]]> 2016-11-04 14:43:22 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahdawnwaddington/q32b6cwfqca5/wish/135397786 sarahdawnwaddington https://padlet.com/sarahdawnwaddington/q32b6cwfqca5/wish/135398848 The pancreas releases enzymes that aid digestion. 
-seretin, which is a soltuion containing bicarbonate ions, goes to the small intestine to neutralize HCL in gastric fluid and to raise the PH. 
-trypsinogen breaks down long chain polypeptides. -erepsins break down bonds between the short chain peptides. 
-amylase continue carbohydrate digestion
-lipuses break down lipids

The small intestine is protected from stomach acids by secretin, because prosecretin is converted into secretin and absorbed into the bloodstream and the pancreas. This absorption triggers the pancreas to release HCO3-, which neutralizes the acid. ]]> 2016-11-04 14:55:55 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahdawnwaddington/q32b6cwfqca5/wish/135403097 sarahdawnwaddington https://padlet.com/sarahdawnwaddington/q32b6cwfqca5/wish/135405426 The large intestine keeps essential bacterias. It uses waste to synthesize vitamins B and K. When waste builds up too much in the large intestine, a stool release is triggered. ]]> 2016-11-04 15:01:39 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahdawnwaddington/q32b6cwfqca5/wish/135405426 sarahdawnwaddington https://padlet.com/sarahdawnwaddington/q32b6cwfqca5/wish/135406452 The colon is the largest part of the large intestine.
