Ingestion is the consumption of a substance by an organism. In animals, it normally is accomplished by taking in a substance through the mouth into the gastrointestinal tract; such as through eating or drinking. In single-celled organisms ingestion takes place by absorbing a substance through the cell membrane.



Egestion- Egestion is the act or process of voiding or discharging undigested food as faeces. To egest means to discharge undigested material or food.



Digestion-Digestion is the breakdown of large insoluble food molecules into small water-soluble food molecules so that they can be absorbed into the watery blood plasma. In certain organisms, these smaller substances are absorbed through the small intestine into the bloodstream.



Absorption- Digestion is the chemical breakdown of the ingested food into absorbable molecules. Absorption refers to the movement of nutrients, water and electrolytes from the lumen of the small intestine into the cell, then into the blood.



Teeth- Food is broken down into smaller pieces in the mouth by chewing. This is an example of mechanical digestion. The teeth cut and crush food, and the pieces are mixed with saliva to form a ball of food called a bolus.



Large intestine The large intestine (colon or large bowel) is about 5 feet long and about 3 inches in diameter. The colon absorbs water from wastes



Esophagus Anatomically and functionally, the esophagus is the least complex section of the digestive tube. Its role in digestion is simple: to convey boluses of food from the pharynx to the stomach. The esophagus begins as an extension of the pharynx in the back of the oral cavity.



Stomach The stomach secretes acid and enzymes that digest food. Ridges of muscle tissue called rugae line the stomach. The stomach muscles contract periodically, churning food to enhance digestion. The pyloric sphincter is a muscular valve that opens to allow food to pass from the stomach to the small intestine



Anus The anus is the opening at the far end of the digestive tract through which stool leaves the body. The anus is formed partly from the surface layers of the body, including the skin, and partly from the intestine. The anus is lined with a continuation of the external skin.



Liver The liver is an organ about the size of a football. It sits just under your rib cage on the right side of your abdomen. The liver is essential for digesting food and ridding your body of toxic substances. Liver disease can be inherited (genetic).



Rectum The rectum is the concluding part of the large intestine that terminates in the anus. The average length of the human rectum may range between 10 and 15 cm. Its diameter can be compared to that of the sigmoid colon (the part of the large intestine nearest the rectum)



Small intestine The small intestine or small bowel is an organ in the gastrointestinal tract where most of the end absorption of nutrients and minerals from food takes place. It lies between the stomach and large intestine, and receives bile and pancreatic juice through the pancreatic duct to aid in digestion.

Addiction on the mind and body - alcohol

 

Addiction on the mind & Body- Alcohol

For the past couple of weeks in health, our teacher gave us a lot of various topics that we could choose from. My friend and I decided to do Addiction on the mind & body (alcohol).  Once we have finished choosing what topic to do the second task that we had to do was to chose five questions that we then had answer. My friend and I tasks were to answer those five questions and explain them to how we could improve it. After we, had finished answering the five-questions our last task was to create an activity or make something that we could present to the whole class.

5 BIG questions


why is it harmful?


what needs to change? 


Who can or can’t drink alcohol?


How do you become an alcoholic?

   

How do we minimise harm?


We presented our topic by using visme and creating art about our topic. We chose to do visme and some art because we thought that it would look really once we presented it. I'm sure that I have worked really well with lars, I am really happy with the presentation and art that we have made.






Here it is:

heart dissection

  • In the inside and out hurumanuu we have been learning about different part of the heart like the Aorta which is a artery and so on
  • We were dissecting the heart so we could see and identify the different parts of the heart
  • the parts of the heart are the Aorta, (Pulmonary and Vena cava which are both veins) veins transport blood, Valve, Atrium and the ventricle the only things we didn't see were the Atrium, Pulmonary and the Aorta because the butcher had cut them art there are also a left and  right side of the heart the left side is thicker because it has heaps of work to do
  • I enjoyed doing the heart dissection cause it was a fun thing to do and it was something different for me to do

film study: colour and lighting

 

When we first see the real world in Coraline (the first picture) we can see that everything looks washed out and faded and the artificial lighting isn't that good it creates a dim green light making it look like a not very nice place to stay  


But when we see the other world (second picture) it looks like a really nice place to stay with brighter lighting still artificial lighting though, but it seems like a more welcoming place to be the walls and draws aren't faded or washed out they look like they have been freshly painted everything looks warm 


Soon the other world begins to deteriorate after the other mother offers the buttons to Coraline the colours begin to get really vivid greens making people start to feel unsettled the other world begins to fall apart 


But the real world after the resolution (the fourth picture) is looking warm and natural seems more inviting has a more inviting feeling to it its bright but not to bright for it to feel natural


what is a leader

 What is a leader a leader is a person who 

  • Takes responsibility

  •  Is empathetic 

  • Caring 

  • Always takes action

  • Does what's best for their country

Jacinda Ardern is a what i would say is a good leader especially during the covid pandemic she took action straight away with the lockdowns and all the different covid levels meaning did what was best for her country

who do you think is a good leader and what qualities do you think a good leader needs?

sexxxy paragraph

 

s: In Coraline, camera angles are often used effectively

e: for example a close up shot is used to show that Coraline feels annoyed at her mum                                                                                                      

x: this shows that Coraline doesn't have the best relationship with her mum

x: the director has done this to show that in the other world the other mother and father would have time for Coraline

x: this works well with the lighting cause it shows that the real world has bleak colours and that the other world will have bright colours

y: this can be compared to when we meet the other mother where the colours are brighter and the other mother is at the front of the shot so that our focus is on the other mother

Home Economics: Stir Fry

 

Home Economics: Stir Fry

Pin by Jill van Nortwick on Recipes to try | Tasty pasta, Chicken ...
Source: Jill Van Nortwick
Kia ora, recently in home economics we made stir fry.
The members in my group were TJ, Tai and James.

Ingredients: Chicken, noodles, spring onion, chilli peppers, honey, soy sauce, carrot and onion.
 

      Method:

  1. We started chopping up the vegetables and chicken
  2. Boil the noodles in a pot
  3. Mix the soy sauce and honey into the chicken.
  4. Sauté the chicken and onions.
  5. 5 minutes later we put the rest of the vegetables into the pan.
  6. We then put the noodles into the pan and waited for it to be served.
Our team worked very well together as we all evenly split the work and all did our jobs.
Our stir fry tasted very good even though we did burn it a little bit on the bottom.

In conclusion I have learnt how to sauté and how to make stir fry. I will definitely make this again in the future.
Thank you for reading.

In home economics we made some mac and cheese it was so good on the top had some panko breadcrumbs which made it really crisp on the top of the macaroni. Also we had to make the sauce for it and it was really creamy and a good texture one thing I think it needed a little bit of parsley

 In hurumanu 6 we have been learning about math in math we have learnt about mathematical thinking, geometry, angles and algebra.
One of the things I liked about this subject that when we had to work in groups we got to chose our groups and not the teacher.
One of the things I didn't like about the subject is that the teacher talked to much

lemon power

Voltage: Voltage is the pressure from an electrical circuit's power source that pushes charged electrons (current) through a conducting loop,

current: An electric current is the rate of flow of electric charge past a point or region. An electric current is said to exist when there is a net flow of electric charge through a region.

Aim: to create voltage out of of a lemon 
Method

  • roll the lemon out so the inside is liquidy.
  • stick a piece of zinc and copper into the lemon.
  • connect the lemon to a voltmeter.


  • discussion: we freed up all these acidicly charged particles. By rubbing the lemon which allows the particles to create a current
  • conclusion: it worked out pretty good
