Process of digestion in human

Date: 26/6/08 THU

I decided to research on my first question first, what is the difference between the digestive system of a herbivore, canivore and an omnivore? Hence, i started off my reserach by finding information about the digestive system of an omivore, and the easiest example would be us, humans as we eat both plants and animals. It would be easy as we already learnt about digestive system in Pri 3. The process is mouth-> gullet-> stomach-> small intestine-> large intestine-> anus and this process is very important as most of the nutrients are absorbed into the blood for energy to do work. Below is a short clip from youtube to see how does this process work.

Off for more reserach about the digestive system of human...
