Human digestive System


Can You Tell Me How Human Digestive
System Works?
Human body is made up of countless millions of cells. Food is needed to built
up new cells and replace the worn out cells. However, the food that we take
must be changed into substances that can be carried in the blood to the
places where they are needed. This process is called digestion. The first
digestive process takes place in the mouth. The food we eat is broken up into
small pieces by the action of teeth, mixed with saliva, a juice secreted by
glands in the mouth. Saliva contains digestive juice which moisten the food, so
it can be swallowed easily.

From the mouth, food passes through the esophagus (the food passage) into
the stomach. Here, the food is mixed with the juices secreted by the cells in
the stomach for several hours. Then the food enters the small intestine. All
the time the muscular walls of the intestine are squeezing, mixing and moving
the food onwards. In a few hours, the food changes into acids. These are soon
absorbed by the villi (microscopic branch projections from the intestine walls)
and passed into the bloodstream.
Answer the Questions
• 1. What is Digestion?

• 2. Why the food in the mouth is mixed with


saliva?

• 3. Where the food goes from stomach?

EARTHQUAKES
Earthquakes being the most deadly natural hazards strike without
any prior warning leaving catastrophe in their wake with terrible loss of General
human lives as well as economic loss. Statement
Technically, an earthquake (also known as tremor, quake or
temblor) is a kind of vibration through earth’s crust. These powerful
movements trigger a rapid release of energy that creates seismic waves
that travel through the earth. Earthquakes are usually brief, but may
repeat over a long period of time (earth science 2001). Earthquakes are Sequenced
classified as large and small. Large earthquakes usually begin with slight Explanation
tremors but rapidly take form of violent shock. The vibrations from a
large earthquake last for few days known as aftershocks. Small
earthquakes are usually slight tremors and do not cause much damage.
Large earthquakes are known to take down buildings and cause death
and injury (Richter 1935). According to some statistics, there may be an
average of 500,000 earthquakes every year but only about 100,000 can
be felt and about 100 or so can cause damage each year.

Closing
Earthquakes are dreaded by everyone.
