1) The document describes activities to teach students about the functions of the bones and muscles and the process of digestion. It includes guided questions and assessments. 2) Students perform activities using paper dolls, wire, and chicken bones/skulls to demonstrate how bones provide structure and support. They also learn about muscle movement. 3) Additional activities show how food is broken down in the stomach, passed through the intestines, and absorbed by the body. The document emphasizes the key roles of organs like the liver, stomach, and small intestine in digestion.

The bones in our body are also
connected with each other. The point
where two bones meet and connect is
called joint. Our joints and muscles
allow our bones to move. The
movements of our body originate in
our joints.

15. Remember
Muscles from the fleshy parts of the
body. They enable our body to move.
They also give shape and forms to our
body and protect delicate organs.
Muscles are voluntary or involuntary.

C. duodenum
D. oral cavity
E. jejunum

35. Application
3. The enzyme which begins
carbohydrate digestion is
named ___________ ___________.

36. Application
4. ________ is produced by the
_________ and released from the
__________ into the ___________ ,
aiding the digestion of fats through
emulsification, which increases the
surface area for the enzyme
__________ ___________ to attack the
triglyceride molecules.

37. Application
5. Most of the nutrient absorption along
the alimentary canal occurs in the
A. ascending colon
B. stomach
C. jejunum
D. ileum

38. Remember
As the muscles in the stomach
continue to contract, the food is
squeezed and mixed with digestive
juices to change the food into
nutrients.

39. Remember
Small intestine contains digestive
juices and other enzymes that
completely digest food and
absorbs digested nutrients.

The linings of the small intestine
function like a filter. Digested nutrients
needed by the body are absorbed by
the linings of the small intestine just like
water that passed through the filter.

Undigested food particles are
passed to the large intestine to
be passed out to the body
during defecation.
