A. Initiatory Activities 1. Daily Routine 1.1 Prayer 1.2 Attendance Monitoring 2. Review the Previous Lesson about the Respiratory System. 3. Motivation What do you think are the function of the saliva? -Saliva along with the chewing action of the teeth, starts the process of digestion. -Saliva helps digest food, it is known as digestive juice. -Saliva moisten the food. It is also begins to breakdown some of the starch in food. B. Lesson Proper Digestive System Digestive system takes in food (ingest it), break it down physically and chemically into nutrients molecules (digest it), and absorbs the nutrients in the bloodstream. The organs of the digestive system can be separated into two groups: Those forming the alimentary canal and accessory digestive organ.

Evaluation Identify the parts of the digestive system as numbered.

Remarks

Alimentary canal performs the whole menu of digestive functions (ingest, digest, absorbs and defecates). Accessory organs (teeth, tongue, and saliva) assist the process of digestive breakdown in various ways. Organs of the Alimentary canal Mouth -Food enters the digestive tract through the mouth, or oral cavity. The lips (labia) protects its anterior opening, the cheeks form its lateral walls the hard palate form its anterior roof, and soft palate forms its posterior roof. Pharynx -From the mouth the food passes posteriosly into oropharynx and laryngopharynx, both of which are common passageway food, fluid and air. Pharynx is subdivided into the nasopharynx, part of the respiratory system passageway; the oropharynx posterior to the oral cavity and the laryngopharynx which is continuous with the esophagus below. Esophagus -The esophagus travels through the neck and thorax, behind the trachea and in front of the aorta. The food is moved by rhythmical muscular contractions known as

peristalsis. Stomach -The stomach lies below the diaphragm and to the left of the liver. It is the widest of the alimentary canal and acts as reservoir for the food where it may remain for between 2 and 6 hours. Small Intestine -The small intestine is the bodys major digestive organ within its twisted passageway, usable food finally prepared for its journey into the cells of the body. Large Intestine -The large intestine is much longer than diameter than the small intestine but shorter in length. About 1.5 n (5feet) long, it extends from ileocal valve to the anus. It major function are to dry out the indigestible food residues from the body to as feces. Pancreas -to produce enzymes to aid the process of digestion. -to release insulin directly into the bloodstream for the process of controlling blood sugar levels. Liver -Which acts as a large reservoir and filter for blood, occupies the upper portion of

abdomen. Gall Bladder -Stores and concentrate biles which emulsifies fats making them easier to weak down by the pancreatic juice. Function of the Digestive System 1. Ingestion- eating food 2. Digestion- breakdown of food 3. Absorption- extraction of nutrients from the food 4. Defecation- removal of waste products C. Generalization 1. Define the Digestive System. 2. What are the function of Digestive system? D. Assignment Research the ff. 1. Parts of the urinary system 2. Function of urinary system 3. Importance of the urinary system
