Explores how the digestive system works and how to use the food chart to eat healthfully. Also reveals all the physiological details of the esophagus, the large and small intestines, and the stomach.

Investigates the digestive consequences when a family sits down to lunch. As the first morsel is put into the mouth, the camera watches from inside as the molars clamp down and the process of breakdown and transformation occurs. Follows the food through the entire alimentary tract, showing how it is dissolved in acid, how the liver and gallbladder work, and how digestion and absorption work.
Part of the "Visualizing Cell Processes" series. Includes the following modules: "Behavior of the Plasma Membrane," "Osmosis," "Transport Proteins," "Phagocytosis," "Pinocytosis," "Receptor Mediated Endocytosis," "Golgi Function," "Lysosomes and Digestion," "Microtubules," "Cilia," and "Actin and Myosin Motor Proteins."
Willy has eaten too much and has a heavy stomach. The cat invites him to practice the digestion sequence to relieve a heavy stomach. They practice the cow face, the beetle, the cosmic egg, and the child poses. Part of the "Ooommm Mmmooo Yoga For Children" series.
Willy is participating in a rally against global warming, but he has an upset stomach. The cat invites him to practice the purifying session to help with digestion. They practice the butterfly, the book, the phone, and the armadillo poses. Part of the "Ooommm Mmmooo Yoga For Children" series.
Part of the "Branches on the Tree of Life" series. Explores the structure, life cycles, ecology, classification, and evolutionary relationships of four major lines of fungi: Chytrids, Zygomycetes (various molds), Ascomycetes (yeasts, cup fungi, and most lichens), and Basidiomycetes (rusts and mushrooms). Emphasizes adaptations and reproductive mechanisms.
In this program, students learn about the digestive process. The human digestive system consists of the gastrointestinal tract plus the tongue, salivary glands, pancreas, liver, and gallbladder. Digestion involves the breakdown of food into smaller and smaller components. These small components are absorbed and assimilated into the body. Part of the "Human Nutrition" series.
The human body needs to take in food and water found in the environment, and through a sequence of mechanical and chemical processes, it converts that food into nutrients that sustain all the body's activities. The digestive tract alone has nine major organs devoted to this process, and the renal tract has three. Join Dr. Mark Reisman as he provides you with a look at the anatomy and physiology of the many organs and structures of digestion. Lastly, explores the properties of metabolism and nutrition.
The Magic School Bus is an award winning animated children’s television series based on the book series of the same title by Joanna Cole and Bruce Degen. It is notable for its use of celebrity talent and being both highly entertaining and educational. Arnold's dream comes true-- he doesn't have to go on a field trip. Ms. Frizzle lets him stay behind with Liz. However, it seems Arnold can't be completely left out because he accidentally swallows the bus. He then becomes the field trip as his classmates explore Arnold's digestive system.
Human beings, like every living organism, are driven by two inherent needs: to survive, and ultimately, to reproduce. To accomplish the goals of survival and reproduction, we have inherited bodies crafted by evolution so that every individual human organism is an organic super factory, a living machine made up of systems that process fuel, build products, repair damage, expel waste, and defend against invaders. Introduces the complex physiological systems of the human body: muscular movement, digestion, circulation, respiration, nerves, glands, immunity, and reproduction. Also, illustrates and explains the cellular basis of life and the importance of carbon in organic chemistry.
Anna was born with a sweet tooth, and as a young woman, she created a successful business using it. Her delicious jams and jellies gave pleasure to many, but did they also cause harm? Explores the way the human body processes food and how its long-term growth and development are shaped by eating habits. Illustrating cellular aging and its relationship to AGEs, or advanced glycation end products, a connection is drawn between the bacteria an infant must consume to build a healthy immune system and the bacteria that consume the body at death. As Anna's life draws to a close, viewers will understand that "dust to dust" is a cycle in which humans take an active part--every time they sit down to a meal.
