Digestion in Human Beings for class 10th

Digestion

As the Human Beings show Holozoic mode of nutrition , theres is a system in Human Beings which Digests this food into the simple molecules called Gollucose.

Digestion:-The process in which an organism breaks complex food molecules into simpler once for respiration is called digestion.

Q.1 what is need to Digest food? 
As the food is in complex form , body cells cannot use it directly so there is a need to change its form from complex to simple one.

Digestion in Human Beings

Digestion In Human Beings starts from mouth.The cavity inside the mouth is called as Buccal cavity.Buccal cavity contains Teeth and Tongue.In mouth food is broken into small pieces with the help of Teeth and is mixed with saliva secreated by Salivary gland. Saliva contains digestive enzymes called as Salivary Amilase (Ptylin).These enzymes digest food to some extend.Tongue in a mouth helps in mixing food with saliva and is also percieves the taste of the food.




The food than enters into the stomuch, a mascular bag like structure through food pipe or oesophagous.In the stomuch many types of digestive juices are added to food, An HCl in stomuch helps in break down of food further.HCl in stomuch is screated by oxyntic cells or peptic cells.

Male reproductive system

Reproduction In Human Beings Reproduction:- It is the biological process in which organisms give offspring for the continuity of race. A complete system is concerned to perform this function called reproductive system. Here we are going to discuss sexual reproduction in Human Beings. As we human beings are diocious i.e male and female sexes are separate Male reproductive system in Human Beings. Testis:- These are the primary sex organs of males, testis produce male sex cells (sperms) as well as male sex hormone testosterone. Testis lie out side the body between the lungs in a muscular pouch called Scrotum.Scrotum maintains the temperature of testis which is below 3℃ than body temperature. Testis are two in number. Alongside the testicles are the  epididymis   and the  vas deferens.  which make up the duct system of the male reproductive organs. The vas deferens is a muscular tube that passes upward alongside the testicles and transports the sperm-...

Structure and function of Neuron

Neurons (nerve cells) are the functional units of the nervous system.  A typical neuron is divided into three parts i.e Cell body or Soma,Some contains all the cell organelles like Nucleus, Mitochondria etc. Dendrites and Axon. Schwann cells of Axon are covered by Myelin Sheath. Dendrites are branched like structures on Soma. Axon terminal is also branched like structure. The signals are received from neuron by dendrites and are send to next neuron bye chemo-electrical impulses through axon. The junction between the two cells is known as Synapses.In neuron signal travels in the form of chemicals but at synapses in changes in to electrical impulses.
