I learnt how the digestive system works and there are 5 different parts first it goes in your mouth then you chew the food with your teeth then it goes down your oesophagus then into your stomach were the acid and enzymes work together to break up the food then it goes into your small intestine we’re all the bacteria is absorbed. Then it goes into the large intestine we’re all the water and salt is absorbed. I learnt that that the oesophagus is 25cm long.

The small intestine is 7 meters long. In the stomach powerful enzymes and acids break the food down to a similar substance like porridge which is called chyme then it comes down the pancreas then into the small intestine.New words I have learnt are chyme which is a substance similar to porridge, feaces which is stool and bolus which is a partly digested lump of food from the mouth

It was so discusting that it made me almost vomit and the Small intestines was 7M long and that Large intestines was 1 1/2 M long, the acids in the stomach breaks the food into pieces and it made chyme.
