Digestive System
The
digestive system
is a group of organs that
break down
, or digest, food so your body can get nutrients
.
The main
organs of the digestive system make one long
tube through
the body. This tube is called the
digestive
tract
.
The
digestive tract includes the mouth, pharynx,
esophagus, stomach
, small intestine, and large intestine
.Slide7
Other Major Organs
The digestive system has several organs that are not part of the digestive tract.
The liver, gallbladder, pancreas, and salivary glands add materials to the digestive tract to help break down food.
However, food does not go into these organs.Slide8
Types of Digestions
Mechanical Digestion:
Grinding, Cutting and Churning.
Example:
Mouth:
This is when your teeth grinds the food
.
Stomach:
This is when your stomach churns the food.Slide9
Types of Digestion
Chemical Digestion
: Anything that has something to do with saliva, enzymes, and chemicals
.
Example:
Mouth
:
This is when saliva breaks down the
food.
Stomach:
This is the moment when gastric juices break down the food, food is now called
chyme
.
Chyme
in the stomachSlide10
Digestive System
It takes about 24 hours for food to make the trip
from your
mouth to the end of the large intestine

You can help keep your digestive system healthy
by eating
whole grains, fruits, and vegetables.Slide11
