Science Chapter 3 Form 2

The document discusses nutrition and the human digestive system. It describes the main classes of food including carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, fibers, minerals, and water. It emphasizes the importance of a balanced diet containing all food classes in the right quantities required by the body. The human digestive system breaks down complex foods into simple molecules that can be absorbed. Key parts of the digestive system include the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, and rectum. The small intestine further breaks down nutrients and absorbs them through villi in its walls before assimilation distributes them for use by body cells.

3.2 Importance of
Balanced Diet
Kepentingan Gizi Seimbang
Balanced diet
Gizi Seimbang

A balanced diet is a diet that


contains all the food classes
in the right quantities that are
required by the body.
Factor that Influence Calorific Requirement
Faktor-faktor yang Mempengaruhi Keperluan Kalori

Factor Explanation
Body Size Large body frame needs bigger portion of food because he needs
more energy.
Age Youngsters require more carbohydrates for energy and protein for
growth, because they are active and growing.
Work Worker that perform heavy work require more energy than those who
work in an office.
Gender Generally, men are more muscular and active, thus they need bigger
food portions.
State of health Sick people required suitable food.
Climate Cold climate people requires more food to maintain their body
temperature.
Calorific Value of food
Nilai Kalori Makanan

Calorific value is the amount Nilai kalori adalah jumlah


of energy released when 1 g tenaga yang dibebaskan
of food is burned completely apabila 1g makanan dibakar
in the body with units of joule dengan lengkap di dalam
or calorie. badan yang diukur dalam unit
kalori atau joule.
3.3 Human
Digestive System
System Pencernaan Manusia
Food digestion
Pencernaan Makanan

Food digestion is the process


of breaking down complex
and large food into small,
simple and soluble molecules
so they can be absorbed by
the body cells.

Pencernaan makanan ialah


proses penguraian makanan
yang kompleks dan besar
kepada molekul yang lebih
kecil, ringkas, larut supaya
dapat diserap ke dalam sel
badan.

Organ Process
Mouth Starch -> Maltose (Amylase)
Oesophagus Peristalsis process pushes food into stomach.
Stomach • Hydrochloric acid activates protease
• Hydrochloric kills bacteria
• Protein -> Polypeptides (Protease)
Duodenum • Liver produces bile (stored in gall bladder)
• Bile emulsifies fat into small droplets
• Bile neutralise the acid in the food
• Pancreas produce pancreatic juice
• Pancreatic juice ( amylase, protease, lipase)
• Starch -> Maltose ( Amylase)
• Polypeptides -> Dipeptide (Protease)
• Fat -> Glycerol (Lipase
Small intestine • Maltose -> Glucose (Maltase)
• Dipeptides -> Amino acids (Protease)
Large Intestine Process of water reabsorption happens.
Rectum Undigested food, faeces stored in rectum
3.4 Process of Absorption and
Transportation of Digested
Food and Defecation
Small Intestine

The wall of small intestine has


fine projections called villi,
which increase the surface
area for the process of the
absorption of digested food.

Small intestine :
Has many folds
Has thin wall
To transport nutrients to all
parts of the body.
Assimilation

Assimilation is the process of


distributing the end products
of digestion for the use of the
body cells.

Asimilasi ialah proses


pengagihan hasil akhir
pencernaan bagi kegunaan sel
badan kita.
