What happens to Food? : Updated

Ingestion:

• When food goes into the mouth it is going through a process to be digested
• Chew Food is called Masticating
• Swallow Food
• There are three important teeth that help you digest your food. Canine that helps you with your ability to rip and tear the flesh off the bone, Incisors helps out with the cutting of the food, and the molars are used for crushing and grinding the food

Liver:
The way the nutrients go to the small intestines to the liver is that the nutrients get absorbed and transported to the liver via the hepatic portal vein. That nutrient is converted to either energy, transported to a working muscle or stored for use later. The green-coloured fluid is called Bile. The fluid is stored in the gallbladder. The bile is an alkaline fluid. The alkaline neutralises the acidic from the stomach to prevent it digesting the rest of the digestive system.

Facts:
