Introduction Of The
Digestive System
The digestive system is made
up of the mouth which grinds up all of the food. The mouth grinds up the
food until it is small enough to fit in your throat. When your food is
small enough to fit in your throat your throat can then transfer your food
to your stomach. The stomach has chemicals called pepsin, gastric juice,
and hydrochloric acid. Those chemicals in your stomach help transfer your
food to your small intestine. Your small intestine chemicals are called
pancreatic juice, intestinal juice, and bile. Those chemicals help transfer
food into fuel. The food then goes to the large intestine. The large intestine
doesn't have any chemicals. |
