Digestive Presentation

The document summarizes the key components and functions of the digestive system model. It describes the mouth, stomach, enzymes from the pancreas, and intestines. It also explains how the model demonstrates the breakdown of nutrients by enzymes, testing for different nutrients using indicators, and how diffusion occurs in the intestines using dialysis tubing to absorb nutrients into the bloodstream.

Water

Saliva that moistens food

Stomach
Hydrochloric Acid

Stomach acid that breaks down proteins

Baking Soda

Lipase and crisco

Breaks down fats and lipids

All from the Pancreas

Indicator Testing
Use indicators to compare levels of nutrients
Water is used as a negative base line
Color changes

Starch- dark brown/black


Lipids- purple
Proteins- cloudy pink
Cellulose- dark yellow/murky orange

Dialysis Tubing
Demonstrates diffusion that helps body
absorb nutrients
Occurs in small and large intestine
Iodine and water represents nutrients

Test changes with glucose strips

Dialysis
The separation of particles in a liquid on the basis of
differences in their ability to pass through a membrane.
