1 DIGESTION SIMULATION LAB PAP CLASS SET BACKGROUND INFORMATION What is digestion and where does it begin? Digestion is the breaking down of food into forms that our bodies can use. Your digestive system is responsible for converting the food we eat into energy for our bodies to use. Digestion begins when you put food in your mouth and begin to chew. Your teeth help to break the food apart, saliva helps to soften the food and your tongue helps to push the food into your throat when you re ready to swallow. When we swallow the food goes into a tube called the esophagus. The muscles that surround the esophagus help to squeeze and push the food into the stomach. The stomach is a sack that receives the food from the esophagus. Your stomach is located just below the heart. The stomach makes digestive juices (acids and enzymes) that help to break our food down into a thick liquid or paste. Your stomach is a muscular organ that is able to move in order to mix the food with digestive juices. Food usually remains in the stomach for about two hours. What is the major site of digestion? What is the major site of digestion? If you answered stomach, you missed it! The correct answer is small intestine. Imagine a water hose 1 inch in diameter and 20 feet long. This is the overall size of your small intestine. Most digestion occurs in the first 10 inches, the remaining length is used for absorbing nutrients. Food is squirted into the small intestine through a valve connecting it to the stomach. Small quantities of semi-fluid, approximately 1 teaspoon per minute, are released into the small intestine and combine with fluids from the pancreas and gall bladder. The pancreas secretes fluids to neutralize the stomach acid and carry enzymes for digesting proteins, fats, sugars, and starches. Some proteins and starches are digested earlier in the stomach. Others are digested in the small intestine. The brain tells the body how much enzyme of each type to secrete into the small intestine.
2 The gall bladder secretes bile into the first 10 inches of the small intestine. Bile works like a detergent to break fat globules into smaller droplets for digestion. The enzymes in the pancreatic fluid can now surround these droplets and begin the digestive process. Digested food is absorbed into the walls of the small intestine as it moves through the intestine. The undigested food is not absorbed. It moves through the next part of the digestive system, the large intestine. The large intestine is about five feet long so it is shorter than the small intestine. The large intestine is however thicker or wider than the small intestine and that is why it is called the large intestine. The undigested food enters the large intestine as a liquid paste. In the large intestine water is removed from the liquid paste turning what is left into solid waste. The solid waste then collects in the rectum at the end of the large intestine and will finally leave the body through an opening called the anus. What causes our stomach to growl? Stomach growling occurs when the stomach receives signals from your brain to begin digestion but the stomach is empty. Your brain might sense you're running low on energy (glucose) or even seeing or smelling something you want to eat can get things going. The motion of the stomach muscles begins, but the organ is hollow. The movement of the muscles mixing the acids of the stomach in the hollow space of the stomach produces vibrations we hear as growling, or rumbling, or gurgling. The obvious solution is to eat, but this is not always practical. Because your body responds to things that you do daily, people who eat on very regular schedules may be more susceptible to this problem.
3 INTESTINE DIGESTION LAB Procedure: 1. Add 25 ml of vinegar to a plastic bag. Color the vinegar by adding 3 drops of food coloring. 2. Measure 25 ml of oil. Pour the oil into the bag containing colored vinegar. This mixture represents undigested food leaving the stomach and entering the small intestine. Observe the bag. Write your observations below. 3. After you complete your observation in step #2, add 25 ml of baking soda solution to the vinegar and oil. Seal the bag. The baking soda solution represents fluid from the pancreas that is added to food entering the small intestine. The fluid contains enzymes for digestion which also neutralizes the acid as it leaves the stomach. Record what is happening to the acid. 4. Observe the contents of the bag. Mix the contents, and observe the contents again. What do you see? Did anything change? Explain what you see below. 5. Bile is produced by the liver and stored in the gall bladder. It is secreted into the small intestine to break large droplets of fat molecules into smaller ones. This increases the surface area where fat-digesting enzymes work. Bile works like detergent on food entering the small intestine. What do you think the detergent will do? 6. Measure 10 ml of detergent in a graduated cylinder. Add the detergent to the bag. Seal and mix the contents of the bag. Observe how the detergent (bile) affects the oil. Record what you see happen to the oil.
