The food in the mouth are cut up
and grind into small pieces by the
teeth. These food pieces would
provide a bigger surface area for
the enzyme. Food is mixed with
saliva.

Digestive action :
Starch → maltose (sugar)
Peristalsis which is caused by the
muscles in the oesophagus push
the food into the stomach
The movement is supported by the
slippery mucus
1. The liver produces bile which is an alkaline and kept
in the gall bladder
- Bile will digest fat to tiny particles

-This process is called emulsification

2. Pancreas produces pancreatic juice which is an


alkaline and it has 3 enzymes that can digest :

- Maltose → glucose
- Peptone → amino acid
- Fat → fatty acid & glycerol
Stomach has gastric juice which consists
of some enzymes and hydrochloric acid.
The functions of hydrochloric acid are:
- It provides an acidic medium for the
enzymes e.g. renin and pepsin to digest
protein in food.
- It also kills microorganisms such as bacteria
which enters the stomach.
The half digested food will be sent to
duodenum for the next process.

PROJECT
Title: Model of the human digestive system
Aim: To enhance the students’ knowledge about the
digestive system of man.
To prepare items for the Science week .
Learning outcome: Pupils will be more knowledgeable about
the digestive system
of a human being.

Materials: Plasticine, plywood, manila card, colour papers,


magic ink pens
supplied by the Science department.
Time Allocation: 1 week after finishing the topic concern.
Workgroup: 4/5 pupils
Suggested Procedures:

Refer to any Science text book or the internet and look up for a
diagram showing a human being’s digestive system.

Study the diagram carefully and make a model of the digestive


system.

Your model must be as accurate proportionally to the actual organs


of the digestive system.

You can add colour or whatever else that you can think of in order
to enhance your model.

Your model must be properly labelled.

The functions of the various organs must also be available.

• Extra marks will be given for tidiness.
