Scene 1: The First Bite
Narrator: "Our journey begins with a simple act: eating! Watch as our brave biscuit
enters the human body!"
Person Eating the Biscuit: Mmm, a delicious biscuit! (Takes a bite and starts
chewing.)
Biscuit: "Oh no! I'm being broken apart!"
Narrator: "As the person chews, an enzyme called amylase in the saliva begins
breaking down carbohydrates into simpler sugars."
Mouth (Person Eating the Biscuit): "That's right! My saliva contains amylase, which
helps digest the starch in this biscuit!"
Scene 2: The Esophagus - The Journey Down
Esophagus Person 1: "Alright, time for peristalsis! We’ll push the biscuit down to the
stomach!"
Esophagus Person 2: "No digestion happens here, but we help move food along using
wave-like contractions!"
Biscuit: "Wheee! It's like a slide, but a little slimy!"
Scene 3: The Stomach - The Acidic Pool
Stomach: "Welcome to my acidic chamber! I have gastric juice, which contains
pepsin, an enzyme that breaks down proteins!"
Narrator: "The stomach releases hydrochloric acid (HCl) to activate pepsin and help
digestion. The biscuit is now a mushy mixture called chyme!"
Biscuit: "I’m getting all mixed up! My proteins are breaking down!"
Scene 4: The Small Intestine - Enzyme Overload!
Small Intestine: "Now it’s my turn! I absorb nutrients, but I need help from my friends!"
Pancreas: "Here I come! I release enzymes like amylase (for carbs), lipase (for fats),
and trypsin (for proteins)!"
Liver: "And don’t forget me! I produce bile, which helps break down fats into smaller
droplets!"
Biscuit: "I’m turning into tiny molecules! The body can absorb me now!"
Scene 5: The Large Intestine - The Final Stretch
Large Intestine: "I’ll absorb the remaining water and prepare the waste for exit!"
Biscuit: "Oh no, looks like my journey is almost over!"
Narrator: "And that’s how digestion works, thanks to teamwork between organs and
enzymes!"
Final Line:
All Together: "Digestion is amazing! Thanks, enzymes!"
