> ESOPHAGUS 10 seconds

> STOMACH 4hours

> LIVER

> SMALL INTESTINE 4.5hours

> LARGE INTESTINE 7-16 hours

> RECTUM 12-14 hours

> ANUS

Explanation:

> MOUTH zero seconds chewing

•a mixture of fats (e.g. butter),proteins (e.g. meat),carbohydrates (e.g. rice) and water

> ESOPHAGUS 10 seconds

•food mixed with saliva passes down the esophagus into the stomach(peristalsis)

> STOMACH 4hours

•food is mixed with chemical juices and churned in the stomach

> LIVER

•the liver produces a green liquid, bile, to help break down fats

> SMALL INTESTINE 4.5hours

•digestive juices (e.g. bile) break down food

•the mixture passes through the intestine wall into the blood

> LARGE INTESTINE 7-16 hours

•water and undigested food pass in to the large intestine

•water is absorbed into the blood

> RECTUM 12-14 hours

•solid waste from the large intestine is stored

> ANUS

•muscles push the solid waste out of the anus as feces
