Is there an important part of the system not shown on the diagram?
D
 State
where food enters and leaves the
tissues (Grade E)
 Describe how food molecules are absorbed
(Grade C)
 Explain how the small intestine is adapted
for efficient adsorption (Grade A)
 Use
p30 to create a flow chart identifying
the different parts of the digestive system
and how they are specialised for their
function
 Mouth
– salivary glands (moisten food and
contain enzymes)
 Oesophagus – peristalsis
 Stomach – physical and chemical digestion
 Liver bile
 Pancreas  enzymes
 Small intestine(first part) enzymes
 Small intestine (second part) absorption
 Large intestine  absorbs water
 Small

carbohydrase in the break down of starch
Included the role of bile
Include the breakdown of fat (Liapse)
Include absorption of smaller molecules
into blood
