Lab 1 – The digestive system and food safety

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 and complete the lab assignment stated below.

Deliverables

First examine the interactive links provided and then follow the steps below. The assignment should

be two pages maximum, double spaced, 12-point font, and have one-inch margins with standard

APA

referencing. Lab reports are to be written in Microsoft Word and submitted for grading.

Lab Steps

Part 1

There are several parts to this Lab. 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.

Explanation / Answer

Answer is sent to Chegg expert coordinator to be responded to the student as I cannot attach or paste the word-file here. I have although prepared an extensive report. I hope it is delievered to the student.
