    4. Slide 4: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Overview of the digestive system The digestive system is a collection of cells, t________ and organs that function together to breakdown and absorb the daily essential nutrients, minerals and vitamins required for healthy growth and development. The digestive system is able to breakdown proteins, fats and carbohydrates prior to their absorption into the bloodstream. These large food molecules are broken down into smaller molecules by both physical and chemical d________. Name a cell, tissue and organ that belongs to the digestive system ?

    5. Slide 5: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Dietary intake of foods Our dietary intake of foods like proteins, carbohydrates and lipids should provide us with the correct amount of c________ energy to maintain our daily activities, growth (if we are children) and repair. An adult male requires about 10,500 kilojoules per day, equivalent to about 100 joules per second. This is the same energy that a 100 watt light bulb uses. Taking too much energy, by perhaps consuming too much raw sugar or fat, can lead to weight gain, high blood pressure and eventually o________.

Notes Overeating or under eating, eating too little vitamins and minerals can cause many health problems in adults and children. It is estimated that one in four adults in the Britain will be clinically obese by 2010.
    6. Slide 6: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Deficiency diseases Your diet needs to be b____________, providing all the necessary v_________ and minerals that you require for healthy growth and development. In some areas of the World, poor diets lacking in just one or two minerals or vitamins causes deficiency diseases. Scurvy is a good example of a deficiency disease that was common amongst sailors during the 17th and 18th centuries. This disease was caused by a lack of vitamin C contained in fresh fruit and vegetables, then unavailable during the long sea voyages. Scurvy can lead to bleeding of gums and the general deterioration of muscles and joints. Deficiency diseases: Word bank: balanced vitamins Vitamin C Calcium Vitamin D Vitamin A Diagram Deficiency Scurvy Osteoporosis Rickets Night blindness Scurvy: Gums begin to bleed and old wounds begin to open. Limes were carried and included in a sailors Notes diet to avoid scurvy. Osteoporosis: A diet lacking in calcium leads to poor teeth and bone development. In older age, bones become weak and break easily. Ricketts: A lack of vitamin D causes soft bones during a child’s growth. This disease is known as rickets. Vitamin D is produced by the skin during the summer months. Night blindness This is a result of too little vitamin A in the diet.
    7. Slide 7: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 A balanced diet The amount of energy (kJ) we consume through our diet and the recommended daily amount of m________ and v___________ we need for normal healthy growth and development is given by the table below. Notice that these values depend on our age, our sex, when female if we are pregnant or lactating and even our lifestyles. The amount of e_______ we need can also depend on the type of job we have, for example a labourer digging roads will require more energy from their diet than someone who works in an office. Look at the information given by the table and answer the questions. Daily vitamin, mineral and energy requirements: Word bank: minerals vitamins energy Sex Age Energy Body Wt.

    8. Slide 8: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Nutrition and food groups one There are seven basic food groups essential for a healthy d______. The three main food groups p________, fats and carbohydrates provide us with all the energy requirements as well as having specific functions in the body. Carbohydrates should make up about 55% of your total daily kilojoule intake. Too much fat in your diet can lead to blocked a_______ and obesity. Protein is required most during p_______ in adolescents for growth and repair. Compare the diets of a body builder, adolescent female and male and a pregnant female, how might they differ ?

Slide 9: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Nutrition and food groups two The other four food groups, although they do not provide the body with any energy, are all essential for healthy g_______ and development. A balanced diet supplying all the necessary vitamins and minerals comes from eating a diet containing low fat meat, plenty of carbohydrates, fresh f_____ and vegetables. Many foods sold in supermarkets now have vitamins and minerals added to them, so that we can all take our recommended daily amount.

    10. Slide 10: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Food tests one The presence of proteins, starch, sugars and l_______ in foods can be tested for by using ‘food tests.’ Scientists test foods for the presence of each of these food groups so they can provide nutritional information on their food products. Where is this information normally found on a packet of crisps or a chocolate bar ? Food tests: Word bank: lipids Protein Lipid Starch Sugar Diagram Biuret’s test Paper test Iodine test Benedict's test Test Add 5cm3 of copper Place a small amount Place 6 drops of iodine Add 5cm3 of benedict’s sulphate and 5cm3 of of tested food on water on food sample. solution.

    11. Slide 11: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Food tests two Starch, a polymer of g_______ is found in many foods including all cereals and most vegetables. Starch is broken down by the carbohydrase e________ to glucose. In this form, glucose is readily absorbed and transported to the many billions of cells in the body. Glucose is oxidised with oxygen during cellular respiration to provide energy essential for life. Although glucose is essential for cellular respiration, which disease might you suffer after years of eating a high glucose diet ?

    12. Slide 12: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Function of the digestive organs one Each organ or tissue in the digestive system has a specific function that helps break down the three main food groups (proteins, lipids and carbohydrates) into small molecules so they can be a_________ into the blood stream. The majority of e___________ that chemically breakdown foods are released by the pancreas into the small intestine. After carbohydrate, protein and lipid breakdown, their products; sugars, amino acids, fatty acids and glycerol are absorbed across the villi into the blood stream. Why can only small food molecules like glucose cross from the gut into the blood ?

    13. Slide 13: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Functions of the digestive organs two All nutrients including amino acids and glucose and other food groups including water, minerals and vitamins are absorbed by the v______ found in the small intestine. The remaining organs of the digestive system including the large intestine and colon remove water from undigested material, helping to form a solid stool. The rectum stores the waste faeces until its excretion via the anus. Blood takes the nutrients to the l_______ where they are processed and sent via the circulatory system, the billions of cells in the human body.

    14. Slide 14: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Physical digestion The breakdown of proteins, carbohydrates and lipids begins with chewing. Humans have a mixture of c_______, incisor and molar teeth which are designed to cope with a varied diet, which includes animal flesh and vegetables. Our canines and incisors tear and rip food. Our molars, with their flat profile are designed to grind and chew fibrous vegetable matter like root vegetables and fruits. How does a high sugar diet affect our teeth and lead to tooth decay ?

    15. Slide 15: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Enzymes and chemical digestion Digestive enzymes break down large f_____ molecules into smaller ones. Enzymes are all proteins, and are very specific, only having one substrate like a protein or a lipid. They behave like c_________, able to speed up the rate of reaction and can be recycled by the digestive system. There are three main types of enzymes found in the digestive system: proteases, carbohydrases and lipases. Look at the table below to find out the function and location of each type ?

    16. Slide 16: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 How enzymes function one For proteins, lipids and c____________ to be absorbed from the small i_________, into the blood, they must be broken down into small molecules. Digestive enzymes breakdown food chemically. An enzyme’s substrate will bind to the enzyme’s a_________ site where chemical bonds are broken producing smaller molecules which can then be absorbed into the b________ stream.

    17. Slide 17: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 How enzymes function two Enzyme are biological catalysts which will increase the rate of b__________ of proteins, carbohydrates and lipids without be used up themselves. Enzyme catalysts are able to lower the activation energy required for new products like sugars and amino acids to be produced from substrates like carbohydrates and proteins. The reaction takes place in an area of the enzyme which is called the active site. Carbohydrases, Lipases, Proteases Enzymes are biological catalysts Not used up during the reaction Lower the activation energy Enzymes as biological catalysts: Word bank: breakdown Breakdown of carbohydrates by carbohydrase Carbohydrase + Carbohydrate Carbohydrase + sugar molecules Diagram Sugar e Sugar rat Sugar hyd bo Sugar Car Sugar Catalyst Catalyst Enzyme Enzyme active site active site active site active site Notes Substrates like carbohydrates collide and temporarily bind to the enzyme’s active site on its surface. The bonds in the substrates are weakened by the enzyme. The bonds are broken and new products are formed. These products (sugar) then leave the enzyme’s active site, leaving the enzyme catalyst unchanged and able to participate in further reactions.
    18. Slide 18: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 How enzymes function three A human body contains many hundreds of different enzymes found inside cells and as part of the d_________ system. Without enzymes, which catalyse the breakdown of nutrients like proteins, carbohydrates and fats, digestion would be too slow to support all your functions. Like many of the inorganic catalysts, enzymes lower the activation energy and increase the rate of reaction without being used up. With enzymes, the rate of reaction increases as the t___________ increases, doubling for every 10oC rise in temperature. However, above approximately 40oC, enzymes are denatured or destroyed and will stop working altogether. Name three types of enzymes found in the human gut ? Biological enzymes as catalysts: Word bank: digestive temperature How enzymes speed up the rate of reaction Heat sensitive enzymes With inorganic catalyst Substrates with sufficient energy to form new products Rate of reaction With enzyme With enzyme Without enzyme 0 Temp oC 40 60 80 100 A catalyst will lower the activation required for substrates to react As you increase the temperature by 10oC the with one another to form new products. The graph above shows how rate of reaction doubles until around 40-45oC by adding a catalyst, the activation energy shifts to the left increasing where the high temperature denatures or the number of successful collisions and therefore increasing the rate of destroys the enzyme. Inorganic catalyst like reaction. Enzymes are highly specific for their substrate. iron and nickel are not temperature sensitive.
    19. Slide 19: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Using enzymes as catalysts Enzymes are used in a wide variety of industrial applications. Enzymes found in yeast cells are used for f___________ sugar during alcohol production and making bread. Enzymes found in the bacteria lactose bacillus are used to produce lactic acid from milk lactose. This is the first step in the production of cheese and dairy yoghurts. Other enzymes are found in modern biological w_________ powders that digest stains on clothing. These modern washing powders work at relatively low temperatures (<40oC) and are energy efficient because you don’t need to use high water temperatures. What temperature would be best to produce cheese from milk ? Biological enzymes as catalysts: Word bank: fermenting washing Alcohol Washing powders Bread manufacture Diagram Notes Yeast is an essential bacteria All biological washing Yeast is used during bread containing enzymes used to powders contain enzymes that making.

    20. Slide 20: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Absorption of nutrients by the villi Once proteins, lipids and carbohydrates are broken down into amino acids, sugars, fatty acids and glycerol, absorption into the blood stream takes place in the small intestine. The small intestine is well designed for absorption of n___________ into the blood stream. It has a thin lining, large s_________ area and a good blood supply. The surface area of the small intestine is about 10 metres squared. To achieve this huge surface area, the small intestine has a folded lining, is very long and contains millions of tiny microscopic villi. These are finger like projections which increase the surface area and help nutrient absorption into the blood. Absorption across the villi into the blood stream: Word bank: nutrients surface Small intestine Features of the small intestine villi (Villi (x 10,000 Magnification)) Diagram Fatty acids glycerol Glucose Amino acids Artery Lymph vessel Vein There are many millions of villi found on the surface of the small intestine. They have thin walls and have a Notes very rich blood supply. Amino acids and glucose are absorbed into the blood. Fatty acids and glycerol are absorbed into the lacteal, which then drains into the lymph system.
    21. Slide 21: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Breakdown of foods along the digestive tube The digestive system is simply a long tube where large nutrient molecules are converted to small molecules. In the small intestine, nutrients like g_________ and amino acids are absorbed across the villi into the hepatic artery. Here they travel to the liver and are either used immediately, stored or assimilated into your cells. Look at the overview of digestion and find out where protein, carbohydrate and lipid digestion occurs ? Overview of digestion: Word bank: glucose proteins water Digestive system Key P_______ ?

    22. Slide 22: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Assimilation of nutrients After the digestion of proteins, carbohydrates and lipids by the digestive system, g_________ and amino acids are absorbed across the villi into the hepatic artery. Here they travel to the liver and are either used immediately, stored or assimilated into your cells. Glucose is either respired or stored in muscle and liver as glycogen. Amino acids are used to build p______ like enzymes. Excess amino acids are broken down by the liver to form urea. Fatty acids and glycerol, which are absorbed into the lymph system are used to make cell membranes, some hormones or are stored under the skin. What two hormones control the amount of glucose in your blood stream ?

    23. Slide 23: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Getting the balance wrong one A healthy balanced diet should provide you with the right amount of chemical energy, vitamins and minerals. It should also be relatively low in f___ and protein (adult) and high in carbohydrates. Eating too much fatty or sugary foods, low in vitamins and minerals for long periods of time may lead to health problems later on in life. D______, atherosclerosis, obesity and heart disease are all associated with eating a poor diet. It is estimated that obesity will be the number one killer in the next twenty years in Britain. Consuming the wrong foods: Word bank: fats diabetes Pizza Chips Fast Food Sweets and chocolates Diagram Notes With an ever increasing choice of cheap fatty fast foods, children are now more overweight and less fit when compared to children of the seventies. Obesity, diabetes and in some cases heart disease are now no longer diseases of the old. Children need to avoid ‘junk food’ and eat a more balanced diet containing the right quantities of all of the seven food groups.
    24. Slide 24: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Getting the balance wrong two Your brain regulates your appetite and signals when you are h______. Your body is able to regulate the amount of chemical energy that you take over many years. Consuming foods high in sugar and fat and low in bulk tend to upset the right balance. Excess chemical energy in your diet leads to greater assimilation, weight gain and eventually obesity. Some individuals who are grossly obese, store upwards of a million additional kilojoules in their body as f___. What health consequences does obesity in humans cause ? Over consumption of nutrients: Word bank: hungry fat Dietary intake in excess of daily requirements Respiration Dietary energy Respiration Diagram C6H12O6 6H2O Mitochondria Energy Assimilation 6O2 6CO2 Obesity Dietary intake in excess of 10,500 kJ/day (adult male) All the chemical energy, vitamins and minerals that we require are provided by a healthy balanced diet. Notes Overeating or under eating, eating too little vitamins and minerals can cause many health problems in adults and children. It is estimated that one in four adults will be clinically obese by 2010.
    25. Slide 25: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Getting the balance wrong three Poverty, drought, disease and war can lead to the failure of crops and livestock. In severe cases of famine, for example the famine in Ethiopia in 1984, millions of people may starve to death. The very old and y_______ are particularly vulnerable. Malnutrition can lead to low body weight, weak immune systems and poor development in children. Famine and malnutrition is still widespread in Africa. Live 8 is now putting pressure on the eight richest countries (G8) to reduce Africa’s debt burden. This should reduce the level of poverty and starvation in Africa. Under consumption of nutrients: Word bank: young Dietary intake below daily requirements Respiration Dietary energy Respiration Diagram C6H12O6 6H2O Mitochondria Energy 6O2 6CO2 Malnutrition Dietary intake below Assimilation 10,500 kJ/day (adult male) Malnutrition in Africa and other developing countries is common place where daily income is less than Notes one pound a day. Many children have less food than they require to live. It is estimated that every three seconds someone dies because of starvation.
    26. Slide 26: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Getting the balance right one Over the last 200 years, here in Western Europe our life expectancy has increased partly due to our healthy diets. Eating a low fat, medium protein, high fibre and carbohydrate diet containing lots of minerals, v________, fresh fruit and vegetables is important so that we maintain our correct b_____ weight. In schools, less junk food and more freshly prepared meals are now being offered to pupils, due to parental pressure and Jamie Oliver, the famous chef who has begun to campaign for better school diners. Good lifelong eating habits: Word bank: body weight Dietary intake in excess of daily requirements Diagram Healthy growth and development over your lifetime requires sensible eating and a balanced diet. Respiration Malnutrition Assimilation Dietary intake at 9,750 kJ/day A balanced diet is important for our long life expectancy. Overeating or under eating, eating too little Notes vitamins and minerals can cause many health problems in adults and children. In order to reach your old age, eat a healthy balanced diet...its that simple !
    27. Slide 27: Science Interactive LTD Copyright 2005 Getting the balance right two Our dietary intake of foods like p________, carbohydrates and lipids should provide us with the correct amount of chemical energy to maintain our daily activities, growth (if we are children) and repair. An adult male requires about 10,500 kJ per day, equivalent to about 100 joules per second. This is the same energy that a 100 watt light bulb uses. Also research shows, that eating five portions of f____ and vegetables a day reduces the risk of developing heart disease, colon cancer and obesity. How can you get children to eat more fruit and vegetables ? Healthy diets: Word bank: proteins fruit Steamed potatoes Carrots Fresh fruit Cereals Diagram Eating sufficient quantities of fresh fruit and vegetables helps us avoid many of the lifestyle diseases Notes like obesity, cancer and diabetes. It is recommended that we all eat at least five portions of fruit and vegetables every single day. Fruit and vegetables are an excellent source of all the minerals and vitamins that we require like vitamin C. This helps us to avoid deficiency diseases like scurvy.
