Digestion
Digestion
• Digestion is the breakdown of large
insoluble molecules into small soluble
molecules to allow absorption into the
blood stream through the small intestine.
Organs of the Digestive System
/Gullet
The Role of the Mouth
• Digestion starts in the
mouth
• Teeth are responsible
for the mechanical
breakdown of food.
• When we chew food it is
physically broken up
into smaller pieces
Oesophagus
• Oesophagus (gullet)
is a muscular tube
that connects the
back of the mouth to
the stomach.
Starter
• Define digestion.
• Name the different parts of the digestion
system.
Role of the Stomach
• Food is churned in the stomach
by the contraction of muscles to
mix the food with the stomach
acid.
• Food is churned for several
hours before being passed into
the small intestine
Role of the Small Intestine
• When food leaves the stomach and
passes into the small intestine, digestion is
completed.
• The soluble molecules produced by
digestion then pass across the small
intestine wall (absorbed) and enter the
bloodstream.
The Large Intestine
• Water & salts are
absorbed here.
• Indigestible
material stored in
the rectum.
• Then semi-solid
faeces eliminated
through the anus.
Model Gut Experiment
Aim:
To investigate if glucose or starch molecules are
able to pass through the wall of the small intestine
(gut) using a model.
Method:
1. Soften the Visking tubing with hot water.
2. Tie 2 knots at end of the piece of tubing.
3. Pour glucose and starch solution into tubing .
4. Tie 2 knots at the top of the tubing.
5. Half fill a boiling tube with water.
6. Place the tubing into the test tube of warm water.
7. Test the water for presence of glucose (using
Clinistix strips) and for starch (using the iodine test),
leave for 10 minutes. Test again.

Conclusion
• Glucose was found to have passed through the
visking tubing into the water.
• Since only starch and amylase enzyme were in
the bag at the beginning, then we must conclude
that the starch was broken down into glucose by
the amylase enzyme.
• The starch molecules are too large and insoluble
to pass through the walls of the tubing but the
glucose molecules are small and soluble and can
squeeze through.
• This demonstrates how digestion works,
enzymes break down large insoluble food
molecules into small soluble molecules that can
be absorbed into the bloodstream.
Digestion In Action
Aim:
To discover what must happen to starch in order
for it to pass through the small intestine (gut) wall.
Method:
1. Soften the Visking tubing with hot water.
2. Tie 2 knots at end of the piece of tubing.
3. Pour starch solution into tubing and add digestive juice.
4. Tie 2 knots at the top of the tubing - rinse with water.
5. Half fill a test tube with warm water.
6. Place the tubing into the test tube of water.
7. Immediately test for the water for the presence of
glucose (using Clinistix strips) and for starch (using the
iodine test), leave for 10 minutes. Test again.
Results:
The water was tested for the presence of glucose
and starch, the results were as follows…

Conclusion:
• Can starch pass through tubing?
• What has the digestive juice (enzyme) done to the starch to
allow it to pass through the tubing?
• What do you think must happen to the starch to let it pass
through the wall of the small intestine into the blood?

• Each part of blood has its own specific role the
ensure the body functions effectively.
Role of Red Blood Cells (RBC)
• Their main function is to
carry oxygen around the
body.
• They are small and flexible
and can squeeze through the
tiniest capillaries to deliver
oxygen to your cells.
• Look at the tip of your little
finger, how small and
narrows will the capillaries
be?
Starter
• What type of blood vessel a) carries blood
away from the heart b) carries blood
towards the heart c) links arteries and
veins?
• What does blood comprise of?
• What is the function of white blood cells?
White Blood cells (WBC)
•White blood cells are part
of our Immune System.
•Their main function is to
fight infection and defend
against disease from
microorganisms like
Bacteria or Viruses
•There are two types of
WBC –
•1 -Those which eat
invaders.
•2 -those which produce
special antibodies to fight
invaders.
White blood cell soldiers!
• These WBC’s patrol
the body in the
bloodstream looking
out for invaders such
as bacteria and virus
particles.
• They wander
throughout the entire
body engulfing
bacteria & dead cells
breaking them down .

Antibodies –
Special Immune Response!
•
Some WBC’s produce special cells
called antibodies. There are
thousands of different types of
antibodies because each one is
specific to deal with a certain type
of bacteria or virus.
•
These antibodies are special
chemicals that stick to the surface
of bacteria and viruses.
•
This causes the invaders to clump
together and so stop them moving
around the body.
•
Bacterial cells
clumping together
The clump of cells can then be
eaten up by other patrolling WBC’s.

Antibiotics – a helping hand for your immune system
https://www.twigonglow.com/films/antibiotics-1635/
Tonsils are badly swollen and infected.
Yellow, pus is visible.
This is bacterial tonsillitis
• Sometimes it can take a
while for your body to
produce enough antibodies
to fight off the infection.
• This can mean that you get
sick for a few days.
• Sometimes certain types of
bacterial infections need
special medicines called
antibiotics to help the
immune system get rid of
the invading bacterial cells.
• Some common bacterial
infections are:
• Tuberculosis, Urine
Infections, conjuctivitis,
infected throat – tonsillitis.
Viral Infections –
• Some types of infections
are caused by viruses.eg chicken pox, measles,
cold and flu.
• These CANNOT be
treated with antibiotics.
• The bodies immune
system must try to deal
with viruses on its own.
• Sometimes it is possible
to protect against viral
infection using an
injection called a
Vaccine.
Vaccine
• A vaccine contains a harmless copy of
certain types of viruses.
• It is injected into the body to and can
“fool” the body into the production of
antibodies without the symptoms of the
disease.
• This means if this type of virus does then
invade the body, the body already has
some specific antibodies to deal with it
quickly and so prevent you getting sick.
• The “flu jab” and some injections you get
as a baby like the MMR(measles, mumps
and ruebella), Polio drops, or as
