N-Squad Episode One: Mission Debrief TEACHER VERSION These short answer response questions can be used as a review or as a final assessment or both. Review Arrange your students in groups of four to six. Have them choose a recorder who will first guide the group in brainstorming all the key points they felt they learned in the episode they just played. Then, hand them the questions from that episode. They may choose one of the questions or you may have them draw for one. If time permits, you could have the group respond to both. Provide each student with a copy of the question since it includes the terms they are trying to use. As a group, they should submit a written response to the question. The discussion of the terms and the explanation of definitions and concepts by the students will be an excellent review. The group can receive credit for both their brainstorming list and the final written response. Assessment To use as a final assessment, have students choose between the questions and write their response. Encourage them to use the terms that are included. Question 1 Trace the pathway of the organs in the digestive system from the beginning to the end. Which four organs help to eliminate alcohol from the body? How does this happen in each organ? Use these terms in your answer: esophagus, large intestine, small intestine, mouth, pancreas, liver) Answer The pathway of the organs in the digestive system is mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine. The liver makes bile for the small intestine to help it digest fats and it filters out toxins. The pancreas makes a digestive juice that the small intestine uses to break down fats, carbohydrates, and proteins. The four organs that help eliminate alcohol from the body are the esophagus, the stomach, the small intestine, and the liver. The esophagus passes the alcohol from the mouth to the stomach. In the stomach, 20% of the alcohol is absorbed into the bloodstream, whereas the small intestine absorbs 80%. The liver filters alcohol out of the bloodstream. Question 2 Alcohol can cause problems in the way the liver functions. Explain the short-term effects and long-term effects of alcohol on this important organ. Use these terms in your answer: short-term alcohol abuse, long-term alcohol abuse, fatty liver, obesity, cirrhosis, scars in the liver, inflamed, rapid weight loss, no symptoms, viral hepatitis, alcoholic hepatitis. Answer Short-term alcohol abuse can cause a fatty liver. Obesity or rapid weight loss can be other causes of a fatty liver. A person with a fatty liver shows no symptoms. One of the effects of long-term alcohol abuse is alcoholic hepatitis. Hepatitis means that the liver cells are inflamed. Over time, the liver cells damaged by hepatitis may be replaced with permanent scars. This condition is known as cirrhosis. Cirrhosis can also be caused by viral hepatitis.
