1) What nutrients are in this?

2) Explain the process of digestion?
The process of digestion starts with Ingestion. Which is when you ingest the food in your mouth. Mechanical digestion involves your teeth masticating your food. Whilst, your saliva chemically breaks down your food using enzymes. Digestion starts with your chewed food moving down your oesophagus to your stomach. Your stomach produces hydrochloric acid to help beak down food. In your small intestines nutrients are absorbed from your food. Those nutrients are then sent to the liver to be filtered into waste. That waste is then stored in the rectum before egestion.
Dissecting the rat was fun and exciting for the most part. First, I was quite intrigued about the idea of dissecting a rat. It was something I hadn't done before. Once I saw the rat dead it took me aback for a moment. Just knowing that our bodies look something like that grossed me out. It was a very interesting experience and if I had the chance to do it again, I would.
