Scenario/Summary
One of the first topics that we need to explore is our
digestive tract. Each step of digestion has its own function. Chewing, for
example, increases the surface area of food particles (physical digestion) so
that the enzymes in the mouth can start breaking the nutrients down (chemical
digestion). Review the two links below and complete the lab assignment stated
below.

All Steps
Lab Steps
Part 1
There are several parts to this iLab. Part 1 consists of
listing all of the parts of the digestive system with either a list or photo.
Many people take a screenshot and use it for Part 1. Feel free to also list the
parts as well if you cannot figure out how to take a screenshot.
Part 2
Part 2 technically consists of two parts. The first one
includes describing the location of each body part. For example, the appendix
is located on the right side of the body under the ascending colon. Another way
to do this part would be to write out the parts and put a location/description
next to it. The second part of Part 2 for this section is to describe the
manner in which you will retain the information of where each body part is
located. An example would be, “I will remember the location of each body
part by reviewing the photo and memorizing each location.” Some classmates
develop interesting methods of memorizing where all of the parts are located,
like using mnemonics. Feel free to be creative.
Part 3
For Part 3, which is in a Word document (or the same
document that you have been using for Parts 1 and 2), please take the overall
categories (mouth, small intestine, esophagus, stomach, and large intestine)
and label them with the appropriate mechanisms that occur in each of them
(propulsion, absorption, chemical digestion, and mechanical digestion). Please
remember that each digestive system part mentioned above may be involved in
more than one of the mechanisms.
Part 4
For Part 4, please define each mechanism (propulsion,
absorption, chemical digestion, and mechanical digestion) with two to three
sentences each.
