Digestive System Review Pack
This pack examines the digestive system, the main purpose of which is to supply the body with nutrients, water and electrolytes, especially sodium. In this pack you will be able to follow the passage of food as it moves through the digestive system from intake via the mouth through digestion and on to excretion of waste products.

The role of the stomach, the small intestine, the pancreas and the liver in digestion are all examined in detail. The metabolism of fat is also covered. A brief look is also taken at digestive problems such as constipation, diarrhoea, heart burn, peptic ulcers, gallstones and jaundice.

This pack contains 7 sections as listed on the right. Each section contains animated movies, tutorials, practice multiple choice tests and model exam answers. Try sections 1 and 2 for free:
