Picture / Poster

Today we finished our 2nd compulsory task which was the Picture / Poster. Leroy drew this cool picture of the digestive system and what is in it. In the digestive system drawing we have: Mouth, Esophagus, Stomach and other words. He has drew lines to the picture of each word of the picture from the part of the digestive system. He had 8 parts in his digestive system drawing.

Explanation

• Mouth
• Earthworms swallow food through the mouth. A flap, called the prostomium under
• the mouth holds the worm’s food in.
• Pharynx
• The food (Dirt) travels down to the pharynx, then from the pharynx the dirt
• gets lubricated in mucus that makes it smiley and slick.
• Esophagus
• The food dirt comes down from the Pharynx then gets mixed
• with calcium carbonate then the calcium carbonate neutralizes the acid in the dirt.
• Crop
• The dirt slides down to the Crop which s a storage point. Then the dirt gets mixed together.
• Gizzard
• From the crop the dirt moves to the Gizzard. Because earthworms don’t
• have teeth the dirt gets grind ed and the dirt gets turned and mixed.
• Intestine
• After the dirt passes through the Intestine. Then the friendly bacteria beginners to
• break down the food so that the blood vessels that line the intestine
• can absorb this and carry the nutrients into parts of the earthworm's body.

Anus

• Finally all this food waste that has been passing through 6 processes
• the waste goes through to the Anus and leaves the earthworm's body.

For the 3rd compulsory task we had to write an explanation for any type of digestive system. For our digestive system I had an Earthworms digestive system. We have the: Mouth, Pharynx, Esophagus, Crop, Gizzard, Intestine and lastly the Anus those are the 7 parts of an Earthworms digestive system.

Slide Presentation

Today We had finished our last Compulsory task. It was to do the slide presentation. We had done: Large intestine, Small intestine, Stomach, Liver and the Esophagus. We had to find what they are and what do they do. We also had images of those body parts from the digestive system. We had a decent amount of work done for this task. The hard part of the digestive system to enplane is the Stomach because I know about all the other digestive system parts but stomach sounds like an easy part to explain but its because we have to explain what the stomach is and what the stomach dose.
