Human Digestive System

This article reports on what happened when a Rumaki pūtaiao kaiako (Science) teacher at a New Zealand high school trialled the use of creative narratives with her Year-10 students as a way of developing their understanding of the human digestive system. These students were members of the school's Māori immersion unit, and creative narratives were in part utilised as a bridge between science discourse and the cultural knowledges these students brought to their learning. In this case study, students developed ‘Tomato Pip’ narratives through four versions, which told the story of a tomato pip travelling through the human digestive system. Word-count data based on these versions and from a summative test were analysed and correlations found between test scores and three categories of word-count total (total words, total science words and total discrete science words). A discourse analysis of one student's narratives identified two distinct voices in these texts: the personal narrator and the emerging biologist. Questionnaire and focus-group data indicated that the use of creative narratives was both motivational to these students and effective as a bridge into science discourse mastery. It is argued that the findings have implications for disciplinary literacy theory, Indigenous education and science instruction.

The limited relevant learning resources and the lack of development on natural science content on the topic of the animals and human digestive system were the reasons for this research. This research aimed at developing Pop-Up book media on the topic of animal and human digestive system in which the validity had been tested. This research was developmental research by using some steps, such as analyze, design, development, implementation, and evaluation models. However, the implementation steps and the evaluation steps were not conducted due to time limitations. The data collection method used in this research was a questionnaire method. The subject of this research was a learning media in the form of a Pop-Up book on the topic of animal and human digestive system on the fifth-grade elementary school students and the object of this research was the validity on learning media for Pop-Up book media. The instrument used in this developmental research was the rating scale. From the results of the assessment by four experts, an average score of 4.79 was obtained into very good qualification. Based on the results of the assessment, it could be concluded that the Pop-Up book media on the topic of animal and human digestive system was valid with a very good qualification.

Prepared Food

Digestive tracts vary considerably because animals have evolved different processes to convert foods to essential molecular building blocks. Differences in digestive strategies distinguish, for example, foregut and hindgut fermenters, and animals utilising different dominant food types, for example herbivores, carnivores, and folivores. Neither the modern human diet nor the size and proportions of the human gut resemble those of other primates. The human digestive system has evolved and diverged in response to introduction of new food types and food preparation techniques. For example, persistence of lactase activity into adulthood occurred in populations that maintained cattle to harvest milk. Humans have utilised non-thermal food preparation for over 2 million years and cooking for 300,000–400,000 years. For most extant humans, prepared food comprises over 70% of the diet. The modern human digestive system is suited to pre-prepared food because of its smaller volume, relative to other species, and because of differences in dentition and masticatory muscles that results in lower bite strength. Adaptations of human digestion in response to diet involved genetic selection over thousands of years. However, transmissible changes linked to diet occur in a single generation. These are best documented for epigenetic changes related to obesity, and are maladaptive in some cases. Diets for most humans have changed substantially in the last half century, too rapidly for evolutionary change in digestive physiology. The capacity to adapt to recent dramatic dietary changes has proven insufficient to avoid deleterious effects leading to obesity, diabetes, fatty liver disease, and metabolic syndrome.

Human Digestive System

Today, the growing trend of the prevalence of diseases of the digestive system is a very important issue not only in Ukraine but also around the world. This problem applies not only to practical areas of health care, but also to theoretical medicine. The study of the anatomical structure and functional state of the digestive system is the theoretical basis for the extrapolation of various pathological conditions in laboratory animals. Analysis of scientific sources showed a lack of comprehensive morphological studies of the human digestive system. The purpose of the paper was to study the features of some organs of the human digestive system in the morphological aspect by bibliographic analysis of literature. Materials and methods. This bibliographic analysis is based on published peer-reviewed articles, books, textbooks, monographs, abstracts of dissertations. For the purposes of this systematic review, literature search (concerning the study of the structure of the human digestive system) was carried out on the Internet, domestic literature sources, scientific and electronic libraries of Poltava State Medical University by the following keywords: "digestive system", "morphology", "gastrointestinal tract", "colon", "cаecum", "embryonic development of the digestive system". Results and discussion. Digestive system (Latin «systema digestorium») is a system of organs of various structures and functions formed in phylogeny, the importance of which lies in the perception, mechanical and chemical (enzymatic) processing and absorption of nutrients needed to compensate for energy and material costs in the body. Conclusion. Significant progress has been made in understanding the development of the human digestive system over the past two decades. The human digestive system is formed in phylogeny community of similar in structure and function of organs, the importance of which is the digestion of food, mechanical and enzymatic breakdown, absorption of breakdown products into the internal environment of the body and their transport to the liver. The structure of the gastric mucosa is well thought out for secretion and protection against low pH of gastric contents, which is regulated by hydrochloric acid. The pancreas, like the gland of external secretion, produces many digestive enzymes in an inactive form. Activation usually occurs in the lumen of the small intestine. The liver receives most of the nutrients absorbed through the portal vein and then uses them to synthesize many larger molecules
