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
