Liver: It produces bile, which aids in digestion; is one of the body’s most important organs for homeostasis.
Trans fats: Processed fats that are modified in vegetable oils by adding hydrogen to them
Carbohydrates: They are a major source of energy; they can be simple or complex.
Cell: It is the basic unit of structure and function in living things.
Organ: Group of tissues that work together to perform closely related functions.
Energy: We need it to do activities like climb stairs, lift books, run, think, etc.
Water: It’s the most important nutrient; every cell needs it because many of the body processes take place in it.
Nervous: Organ system that recognizes and coordinates the body’s response to changes in its internal and external environments.
Homeostasis: Describes the relatively constant internal physical and chemical conditions that organisms maintain despite changes in internal and external environments.
Tissue: A group of similar cells that perform a particular function.
Fats: They help the body absorb fat-soluble vitamins and are part of cell membranes, nerve cells, and certain hormones.
Calorie: Is the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of gram of water by degree Celsius.
Proteins: They supply raw materials for growth and repair of structures such as skin and muscle.
Organ system: Is a group of organs that perform closely together functions; for example the brain and spinal cord.
Nutrients: Are substances in food that supply the energy and raw materials your body uses or growth, repair, and maintenance.
Raw: Some of these are needed to make enzymes, the lipids in cell membranes, and even DNA.
Feedback inhibition: The process in which a stimulus produces a response that opposes the original stimulus.
Saturated: Type of fats in which there are only single bonds between the carbon atoms in the fatty acids.
Unsaturated: Type of fats that have one or more double bonds between carbon atoms.
Insulin: Is a protein that regulates the level of sugar in the blood.
Hemoglobin: A protein found in red blood cells, helps transport oxygen.
Vitamins: Organic molecules that the body needs in very small amounts, they help to perform chemical reactions.
Minerals: Inorganic nutrients that the body needs usually in small amounts.
Calcium: Mineral that helps in the bone and tooth formation and blood clotting.
Iron: Mineral that is a component of hemoglobin and of electron carriers used in energy metabolism.
Potassium: Mineral which function is acid-base balance, water balance, nerve and muscle formation.
Zinc: Mineral that is a component of certain digestive enzymes and we can find it in meats, seafood and grains.
Food label: is a label required on most packaged food in many countries.
Digestive system: converts food into small molecules that can be used by the cells of the body.
Ingestion: is the process of introduces food into the body.
Digestion: enzymes break down food into the small molecules the body can use.
Mechanical: the kind of digestion in which happens a physical breakdown of large pieces of food into smaller pieces.
Absorption: when cells absorb molecules in the small intestine.
Elimination: when food travels through the large intestine and are eliminated from the body as feces.
Chewing: is the process by which food is crushed and ground by teeth.
Teeth: are anchored in the bones of the chaw. They are protected by a coating of mineralized enamel.
Saliva: these are release by the salivary glands.
Amylase: an enzyme that is on the saliva.
Esophagus: bolus passes through a tube to these
Peristalsis: the contractions of the smooth muscles is caused by these
Stomach: is a large muscular sac that continues the chemical and mechanical digestion of food.
Pepsin: it breaks proteins into smaller polypeptide fragments.
Chyme: it is a mixture with an oatmeal-like consistency
Pancreas: it is a gland behind the stomach that serves three important functions.
Villi: it is a fingerlike projection.
Small intestine: it first part is called the duodenum.
Large intestine: it gets his name due to its diameter.
Gallbladder: it releases bile through a duct into the small intestine.
Mucus: is a slippery secretion produced by, and covering, mucous membranes.
Stomach acid: is a digestive fluid, formed in the stomach.
