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.
In this video, Pinky and Petunia discuss the 11 major organ systems in the human body. These include the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, endocrine, cardiovasular, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive system. Part of "The Amoeba Sisters" series.
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.
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.
This creature was found 2,300 feet deep in the ocean. It’s a sea spider, and ones living at this depth can grow quite large, spanning almost 3 feet wide. Their 8 long legs help carry vital organs like their digestive tract. They also have 3 to 4 extra limbs, which they use for cleaning, courtship, and carrying their young. With over 1,300 different species, they are found in every ocean throughout the world. Part of the "Creatures of the Deep" Series.
Part of a series that features a wide variety of video footage, photographs, diagrams and colorful, animated graphics and labels. Begins with a simple definition of the term and concludes with a critical thinking question. For this particular video, students will focus on the term soil. Part of the Science Video Vocab Series.
On January 4th, 2013 a catastrophic bushfire ripped through Tasmania. In the aftermath, scientists and residents are struggling to figure out if events like this are likely to happen more frequently in the coming years with climate change. Part of WIldFIRE PIRE series.
Speech, your means of communication, is the medium for exchanging ideas and expressing both pleasure and pain. Examines the physiology of speech by looking at humans' vocal tracts. Shows how the larynx, vocal chords, wind pipe, tongue, and lips produce the sounds of speech. Also, looks at the ability to understand speech by explaining why your ears and brain can discern the subtle nuances of rapid sounds.
