Lab 1 â The digestive system and food safety
Scenario/Summary
One of the first topics that we need to explore is our digestive tract. Each step of digestion has its own function. Chewing, for example, increases the surface area of food particles (physical digestion) so that the enzymes in the mouth can start breaking the nutrients down (chemical digestion). Review the two links and complete the lab assignment stated below.
Deliverables
First examine the interactive links provided and then follow the steps below. The assignment should
be two pages maximum, double spaced, 12-point font, and have one-inch margins with standard
APA referencing. Lab reports are to be written in Microsoft Word and submitted for grading.
Lab Steps
Part 1
There are several parts to this Lab. Part 1 consists of listing all of the parts of the digestive system with either a list or photo. Many people take a screenshot and use it for Part 1. Feel free to also list the parts as well if you cannot figure out how to take a screenshot.
Part 2
Part 2 technically consists of two parts. The first one includes describing the location of each body part. For example, the appendix is located on the right side of the body under the ascending colon. Another way to do this part would be to write out the parts and put a location/description next to it. The second part of Part 2 for this section is to describe the manner in which you will retain the information of where each body part is located. An example would be, "I will remember the location of each body part by reviewing the photo and memorizing each location." Some classmates develop interesting methods of memorizing where all of the parts are located, like using mnemonics. Feel free to be creative.
