Introduction:

The Digestive System is a system that is in your body. It breaks down the food that you eat and makes it into energy and feces. This helps keep you alive.

Description:

There are lots of important organs in the Digestive System. Such as the Rectum that stores the food until it goes through the Anus and comes out as poo or  wee. Next there is the tongue. This pushes the food the food down the Esophagus after it has  been chewed by the teeth, into little pieces. In the Digestive System there also is a stomach, small intestine and large intestine.

How it works:

The Digestive System starts off by you putting some food in your mouth and chewing it with your strong teeth. Once your strong teeth have broken down the food into tiny pieces. This causes it to be pushed by the tongue into the trap door. Then it flows down the Esophagus into the Stomach. In the stomach acids are added and some of the foods are stored. Next after all the acids are added the food goes into your small intestine. In the small intestine all the goodness is sucked  out and made into energy. Finally all the waste goes into the large intestine where the water is sucked out. And the good healthy foods get sent around your body in the blood. The bad foods go into the Rectum some of them are stored until it goes though the anus and comes out as wee or poo.

Conclusion: 

There is lots different parts in the Digestive system and that is how they work. And is how you digest your food. So keep Digestive System healthy so it stays like this. By drinking and eating heathy things!
