Protein 1. Put 1ml of food into a test tube.2. Add 1ml of sodium hydroxide.3. Add 4 drops of copper sulphate solution.4. Shake well and record colour change.

Food tests 1To investigate what happens in digestion we need to be able to test for different foods. Here are two simple tests:1) The test for starch:

Drop some iodine onto the food. If the iodine turns BLUE/BLACK then STARCH is present.

2) The test for simple sugars (e..g glucose)

Boil the food with some Benedict’s solution. If an orange “precipitate” appears then the food contains simple sugars

Iodine

41

Food tests 21) The test for protein:

Add 5cm3 of dilute sodium hydroxide followed by 5cm3 of dilute copper sulphate. If protein is present it will produce a purple colour.

2) The test for fats:

Shake the food with about 10cm3 of ethanol in a test tube. Pour some of the solution into a tube containing water. If fat is present the water will turn cloudy white.

42

1.Draw a labelled diagram to show how to test for protein, starch, sugar and fats

2.Give the positive results expected for foods that contain starch, protein, sugar and fat.

Nutrition

46

There are four stages to nutrition (obtaining and using food for energy):

Ingestion Using our teeth and mouths to physically get food into

our body

Digestion Chemically breaking down food into smaller particles

Absorption Broken down food particles pass from our small

intestine into our blood

Excretion Liquid waste is excreted via the kidneys and bladder Solid waste is excreted via the anus

Nutrition

47

48

49

What is digestion?Turns food into a form that your body can use

Why do we need to digest food?Food particles are to large to fit through cell membranes and be absorbed and passed around the blood stream

Digestion

50

Once you have ingested your food with your teeth, enzymes then digest it.

Digestion means to break down into simpler smaller particles. These smaller particles can then pass through the cell membrane of the intestines.

Digestion first takes place in your mouth where an enzyme called amylase (found in your saliva) breaks down starch into smaller particles.

Digestion is a chemical process that takes place in the mouth, stomach and small intestine.

51

The digestive systemThe whole point of digestion is to break down our food so that we can get the bits we need from it…

The main foods affected are CARBOHYDRATES – these are broken down into GLUCOSE

52

Digestion

1) In the mouth food is mechanically broked down by the teeth and chemically broken down by enzymes in saliva

2) In the stomach food is chemically broked down by enzymes and acid is produced to kill bacteria and help the enzymes work

3) In the small intestine enzymes complete the digestion process and glucose and other small foods are absorbed into the bloodstream.

4) In the large intestine excess water is absorbed into the blood

5) The waste faeces are removed through the anus

53

Other facts to digest...

The liver produces bile to help digest fat

The gall bladder stores bile before releasing it into the small intestine via the bile duct

The pancreas produces lots of enzymes

Mouth – Chemical break down – amylase - Physical break down – teeth

Gullet/Oesphagus – moves food to stomach

Stomach – stores food and digestion begins

Small intestine – digestion continues and nutrients are absorbed

Large Intestine – water is absorbed and feaces are compacted

Anus – wastes are excreted.

Draw a flow diagram of the digestive system Where is food first acted on by enzymes?Mouth – saliva contains enzyme amylase Where are proteins first digested?Stomach – protease breaks down proteins Where are carbohydrates first digested?Mouth – amylase digests carbohydrates What happens to food in the stomach?Broken down and mixed and bacteria killed Why do we need teeth? How do they help with

digestion?Breaks food into smaller parts so can be swallowed

and so enzymes can act on it quickly What else occurs in the mouth that aids

digestion?Chemical breakdown, moistening of food

66

The small intestineThis is where the “small parts” are absorbed into our blood stream…

Everything else passes

into the large intestine

Glucose gets absorbed into

the blood

67

Once digested glucose, vitamins, minerals and fats are absorbed through the wall of the small intestine.

To ensure this happens as fast as possible, the small intestine is covered in thin hair like projections called villi.

These increase the surface area so that substances can be absorbed fast.http://lgfl.skoool.co.uk/content/keystage3/biology/pc/learningsteps/EGSLC/launch.html

Absorption

68

Villi are only one cell thick so that substances can move quickly into the blood in the capillaries.

The capillaries join up to form veins which take the blood to the liver to be cleaned before the heart pumps the blood around the body for use.

Villi

1. Write a definition of the following words:absorption, surface area, villi, artery, vein,

small intestine, large intestine, villus, capillary, pressure

Outline the structure and

function of teeth

SLO

72

Why do we have teeth? Teeth are for breaking up food into smaller pieces so that they can be swallowed or ingested. There are different shaped teeth for different jobs: 

Canine: Sharp and pointy for tearing 

Incisors: Chisel like for biting 

Molars: Large and flat for chewing

Teeth

73

Enamel – protects tooth from wear and tear

Dentine – supports enamel, has nerves in

Pulp – has blood vessels to supply nutrients to tooth, nerves to send messages to brain

Gum – where root is implanted

74

Function of Teeth

Look at your own teeth

Copy the diagram

Label your incisors I

Label your canines C

Label your molars M

How many teeth do you have in total?

How are you teeth different to your neighbors? 

Your Teeth

75

Different teeth are used to eat different foods:Canines – tearing meatIncisors –cutting grassMolars – grinding foodHence, animals with different diets also have different amounts of each type of tooth. A rabbit that eats grass would need i_____ to cut the grass and m______ to chew it.

A dog would need large c_____ to tear meat from the bone.
