Digestion
The muscular tube that pushes food from your mouth to your stomach.
What is the esophagus?
The body system that moves your blood all around your body.
What is the circulatory system?
Starch is an example of this macromolecule.
DOUBLE JEPARDY:
Humans and animals get their energy from this.
What is food.
The heart helps move oxygen from this organ into the blood.
What is the lungs?
The organ releases hydrochloric acid on the food molecule- this begins the digestion of fat and protein.
What is the Stomach?
The "cells" that carry oxygen in and carbon dioxide out of your body.
What are the red blood cells?
Carbohydrates breaks down into this smaller and more digestible food molecule.
What is glucose?
Cells make energy is this organelle?
What is the Mitochondria?
The lungs take in this substance from the air.
What is oxygen?
The upper part of the small intestine where the pancreas and gall bladder release chemicals to aid in the digestive process.
What is the duodenum?
The cells that fight bacteria viruses and other foreign invaders.
What are the white blood cells?

What are amino acids?
DOUBLE JEPARDY

What is basically everything needed to live --> grow and reproduce, maintain their structures, and respond to their environment

What is the trachea?
This organ is the last one in digestion and it's main job to to take back some of the water from remining food and store the waste in the colon to prepare for excretion.
What is the large intestine?
Food molecules travel in the blood from the small intestine to the rest of the body in this liquid part of the blood.
What is the plasma?
Lipids also called fats breaks down into these smaller and more digestible food molecules.
What are fatty acids?
When stored energy, fat, is used (burned) these waste products are produced.
What are carbon dioxide and water?
This chemical is needed by the cells to make energy along with the food molecule glucose.
What is oxygen?
The enzyme is secreted in the mouth and mixes with the salvia to begin the digestion of the carbohydrates in food molecules.
What is amylase?
Blood cell are not true cells because this organelle is pinched off when the emerge from the bones.
What is the nucleus?
The body can turn stored fats into this molecule, it is the molecule all cells need to make energy.
What is glucose?
A unit of energy measurement used in nutrition.
What is a calorie?
The respiratory system has a close relationship with this other body system.
What is the circulatory system?
