What we did today:

1. We had a test on the Digestive System
2. Watched a video called the River Of Life which involved the Circulatory System

Thoughts about the material:

While we were writing our test I was just wondering the whole time how long does it actually take food to reach your stomach from the time you begin chewing it and how long does the whole digestive process actually take.

Above and Beyond:

According to this website http://www.saburchill.com/chapters/chap0016.html food takes about one second to reach the stomach if its a liquid and 5 seconds if its a solid. According to that same website food can actually stay up to 96 hours in your large intestine. That's quite a while. Feel free to check it out.
