This quick check focuses on how the digestive system breaks down food, moves it through organs, and absorbs nutrients for the body to use.

Ɛhia

1

Which statement best describes the main function of the human digestive system?

To pump blood to all parts of the body

To break down food into small molecules that can be absorbed and used by cells

To produce oxygen for the body’s cells

To send electrical signals that control movement

Ɛhia

2

Match each digestive organ to its primary function.

Draggable item		Corresponding Item
Stomach		Chews food; starts chemical digestion
Large intestine		Churns food; begins protein digestion
Mouth		Most nutrient absorption occurs here
Small intestine		Absorbs water; forms feces

Ɛhia

2

Which TWO processes happen mainly in the small intestine? (Select 2)

Most nutrient absorption into the bloodstream

Most water absorption and feces formation

Further chemical digestion using enzymes and bile

Filtering wastes out of the blood to make urine

Ɛhia

2

Put the path of food through the digestive system in the correct order.

Large intestine
Mouth
Rectum/Anus
Esophagus
Small intestine
Stomach

Ɛhia

1

Name the finger-like structures in the small intestine that increase surface area for absorption.

Ɛhia

1

Which statement best describes the main function of the digestive system?

Produces hormones that control growth

Sends electrical signals to control muscles

Moves oxygen from the lungs into the blood

Breaks down food and absorbs nutrients into the body

Ɛhia

1

What is the primary job of the small intestine?

Make urine by filtering blood

Ɛhia

1

Most nutrient absorption happens in the large intestine.

Which nutrient is a macronutrient?

Vitamin C

Iodine

Iron

Carbohydrates

Ɛhia

1

Which list contains only micronutrients?

Proteins and vitamins

Fats and water

Vitamins and minerals

Carbohydrates and proteins

Ɛhia

1

Why does the body need macronutrients?

They provide energy and building materials for growth and repair

They mainly control the speed of nerve signals

They are only needed to prevent scurvy and rickets

They cannot be digested and pass through the body unchanged

Ɛhia

1

Which statement best compares macronutrients and micronutrients?

Micronutrients provide most of the body’s energy; macronutrients do not

Micronutrients cannot be absorbed; macronutrients can be absorbed

Macronutrients are vitamins; micronutrients are carbohydrates

Macronutrients are needed in larger amounts; micronutrients are needed in smaller amounts
