Digestion

Did you know that it takes 8 seconds for food to get down your food pipe also known as the osophagus?! We conducted an experiment to show what happens food when it goes through the digestive system. 

First, we showed the food being chewed in the mouth by the teeth. 

The food then mixes with saliva in the moth, so we added water to the bread! It went all mushy and soft.


When the food get to the stomach, it mixes with acid.
So we mixed it with vinegar!




All of the nutrients in the food go into the bloodstream when it reaches the small intestine. 


The remainder and excess water go to the large intestine and are then removed
From the body!
