Introduction
Follow this link and watch the intro video where I’m explaining what is expected of you to complete this activity. Link: http://msgeesites.simplesite.com/
Study your notes on Human Nutrition, focus more on the structure of the Alimentary canal as your activity will be mainly based on that.Your activity will be based on Digestive System. You can also go to Youtube and watch the Structure and Functions of Digestive System and how it works.

Task
Human Nutrition- Digestive System
Click on the link below and study the diagram on digestive system and answer the questions that follow.
Questions:
- Name parts labelled A to G
- Give letters and names of parts in which each of the following processes takes place: 2.1 Ingestion 2.2 Mechanical digestion 2.3 Chemical digestion 2.4 Absorption 2.5Bile is stored
- List the symptoms of someone suffering from diabetes.
Process
You are expected to study the diagram on the Digestive system and answer the questions that follow.
In question 1, number 1, you need to only label the structure from A to G.
In question 2 you are required to give letters and the names of parts in which each of the given processes takes place. You only write a letter and a process. If you look on your notes, the processes have been explained and their location in the structure of the digestive system. It was also stated in your notes that you have two types of digestions namely Chemical and the Mechanical digestion.
In question 3, you only list any symptoms that you know of someone who has a diabetes. I will mark any relevant answers.
