Digestive System Worksheet Student Name: Time Estimate: 35 minutes Journal Imagine you are a fatty acid, protein, or sugar molecule journeying through the digestive system. Choose one molecule. You will journal the hourly happenings throughout your voyage. You only need to journal the first seven hours of the digestive passage. This means you should have a total of seven journal entries. Your journal entries should be creative and include descriptions of all the alimentary and accessory organs, including their secretions. You should also mention which type of digestion is happening in each organ and include the nervous or endocrine system controls that affect the digestion of your molecule. Remember, fatty acids, proteins, and sugar molecules are digested and absorbed slightly differently. Be sure your journal covers the correct voyage for the molecule you choose. The terms you should use are listed below. Feel free to include any others you need to show an in-depth understanding of the digestive system.
