We are Room 3

Introduction:

The Digestive System is a system that breaks down food. It also makes energy for the rest of the body.

Description:

We use lots of important parts to help us digest. We use the teeth for chewing,the tongue to push the food down the throat and the esophagus to swallow the food. The stomach is for storing the food and the large and small intestines are for getting the good food to stay in the body and the bad food out of your body. The Anus is for getting the bad into the toilet.

How it Works

The Digestive System starts of by you chewing the food with your strong teeth to turn the food into little pieces. Then the food goes into a tube called the esophagus.The esophagus makes the food softer and a wee bit smaller. After that the food goes into the stomach. The stomach stores all of the food and the stomach acid then breaks the food up more so it is a juice. After that the food goes through the small intestine and the food goes into the blood which gives your body energy. Then the undigested food goes into another twisty tube called the large intestines. The large intestines absorb water from the waste product.Then the waste goes through the anus and into the  toilet.

Conclusion

The Digestive System is a really good system which keeps us alive.It also gives us energy.So make sure you eat healthy and do exercise.
