  4. The building blocks of protein are known as: A 100

  5. Amino Acids A 100

  6. Name all six nutrients your body receives from food. A 200

  7. Proteins Vitamins Water Fats Carbohydrates Minerals A 200

  8. The enzyme in saliva chemically breaks down: A 300

  9. Starches A 300

  10. Explain the function of the epiglottis and the role of peristalsis. A 400

  11. Epiglottis is located in the back of your mouth and seals off your windpipe when you swallow to prevent food from entering. Peristalsis pushes food and undigested material through the digestive system. A 400

  12. Before winter, animals that hibernate often prepare by eating foods high in fat. How is this behavior helpful? A 500

  13. Fat provides more than twice the energy of carbohydrates or proteins. The fat will be stored as an energy source to be used when the animal is hibernating and not taking in food as energy. A 500

  14. What is digestion? B 100

  15. Process by which your body breaks down food into small nutrient molecules. B 100

  16. What is absorption? What happens to materials that are not absorbed? B 200

  17. Absorption is the process by which nutrient molecules pass through the wall of your digestive system into your blood. Materials that are not absorbed are removed from the body. B 200

  18. What is the difference between chemical and mechanical digestion? Provide examples for each. B 300

  19. Mechanical digestion- Food is physically broken down into smaller pieces. Ex: Mouth Chemical digestion- Chemicals produced by the body break foods into their smaller chemical building blocks. Ex: Stomach B 300

  20. How is energy in food measured? What kinds of information are found in food pyramids and on food labels. B 400

  21. Calories Food pyramids classify foods into six groups Food label contains nutritional information about food. B 400

  22. Bile is produced by the: Which organ allows most materials to be absorbed into the blood stream? B 500

  23. Bile is produced in the liver. Small intestine B 500

  24. Most mechanical digestion takes place in the: C 100

  25. Stomach C 100

  26. What role does bacteria play in the large intestine? C 200

  27. Bacteria in the large intestine make certain vitamins, including vitamin K. C 200

  28. How does the Pancreas aid in digestion? C 300

  29. The Pancreas produces enzymes that help break down starches, proteins and fats. C 300

  30. DAILY DOUBLE DAILY DOUBLE Place A Wager C 400

  31. What is Pepsin? C 400

  32. Pepsin is an enzyme that is part of the digestive juice. It breaks down protein into short chains of amino acids. C 400

  33. What is cholesterol and why is it important to monitor? C 500

  34. A waxy, fatlike substance found only in animal products. Can lead to heart disease which can lead to heart attack or death. C 500

  35. How is food removed? D 100

  36. Through the large intestine, to the rectum where food is removed through the anus. D 100

  37. Which of the following parts of the digestive system is best paired with its functions? Esophagus- digests carbohydrates. Stomach-digests fats. Small intestine- Absorbs water. Liver- Produce bile. D 200

  38. Liver-Produces bile D 200

  39. Which organ is not just a digestive organ? Stomach Liver Small intestine Large intestine D 300

  40. Liver D 300

  41. Compare and contrast your digestive system to an assembly line. D 400

  42. Similarities: Both perform specific jobs in a sequence of events. Differences: Assembly line-Something is constructed from many small parts in many steps. Digestion- something is broken down into smaller parts step by step. D 400

  43. What could happen if your body didn’t produce enough mucus? Explain D 500

  44. The stomach lining would become irritated and might develop sores from the acid produced by the stomach. D 500

  45. What are the 4 processes when becoming a sedimentary rock? E 100

  46. Erosion, Deposition, Compaction, Cementation. E 100

  47. Many sedimentary rocks have visible layers because of the process of ? You’ll find the oldest sedimentary rocks in which layer? E 200

  48. Deposition and in the lowest layer E 200

  49. What are the three types of sedimentary rocks? E 300

  50. Organic, Clastic and Chemical Rock E 300
