Investigating the Digestive System
From the Series Investigating Body Systems
Your digestive system is like a production line. Food, drinks, or pills travel through tubes, filters, and holding rooms, as body chemicals work to extract nutrients. This fascinating book explores gut microbiomes, human waste, and how the digestive system identifies problems. Full-color illustrations help readers visualize the digestive system at work. Free downloadable Teacher's Guide available.
