Teeth and Stomach Make Mush
Open to everyone until Tuesday, September 29
To keep it, print it while it is open.
Your teeth crush and grind food while saliva makes it wet and slippery. In your stomach, strong muscles squeeze and mix it into a soft mush.
In the picture
- Front teeth biting into a chunk of food
- Pouch-shaped stomach squeezing with its wrinkled walls
- Soft pale mush with tiny bubbles inside the stomach
Examples
- Chewing a crunchy apple until it is soft and wet.
- A swallowed bite of bread turning into paste inside the stomach.
Key takeaways
- Teeth break food into small pieces and saliva makes it wet.
- The stomach squeezes food with its muscles until it becomes a soft mush.
