 Nutrition

Nutrition can be defined as the process by which an

organism obtains food which is used to provide energy
and materials for its life sustaining activities
 Food

Food is an organic
compound which
organisms can use
as a source of
energy for
metabolic
processes.
• Digestion is the breaking down of food into forms that
our bodies can use. Our bodies use food as fuel to provide
energy for work, play and growth. Your digestive
system is responsible for converting the food we eat into
energy for our bodies to use

Digestion
• Esophagus
• Stomach
• Small Intestine
• Large Intestine
• Gall bladder
• Liver
• Pancreas

The Digestive System

 • the tube
that
connects
your
mouth and
your
stomach

Esophagus
 Esophagus

Stomach
• A stretchy bag that holds
your food after you eat

• Helps to break food into

smaller pieces so your
body can use it for energy
and nutrition
Small Intestine
• Tube that is 20 feet
long.
Small
Intestine
• Continues to digest
food

• Food stays in your

small intestine for 4 to
8 hours
Large Intestine
• Tube that is 5 feet
long

• Gets waste from

small intestine

• Waste stays for 10 to

12 hours

Large Intestine
• Storage tank for bile (a
greenish-yellow liquid)
that helps your body
break down and use fats

• Located under your

liver

• Shaped like a pear

Gall Bladder
 Liver
• Factory for antibodies and
bile

• Stores vitamins and

sugars until your body
needs them

Liver
• Helps you
digest food by
breaking down
sugars

Pancreas

Plant nutrition
“Plant nutrition”
specifically does not
refer to photosynthesis.
Plants uptake nutrients
from the soil directly by
roots
Talk about this:

Plants require 13 mineral nutrient elements for growth.

The elements that are required or necessary for plants
to complete their life cycle are called essential plant
nutrients, each has a critical function in plants and
are required in varying amounts in plant tissue.

Water and mineral Transportation of food

Function transport from roots and nutrients such as
to aerial parts of the sugar and amino acids
plant. from leaves to storage
organs and growing
parts of plant. This
movement of
substances is called
translocation.

Movement up the plant's stem) or down the plant's stem
from "source to sink")
