Mnemonic: "My Food Stays Super Long"
My – Mouth
Food – Food pipe (Oesophagus)
Stays – Stomach
Super – Small intestine
Long – Large intestine
Mnemonic Explanation: Food passes through the mouth, where digestion begins, then moves through the food pipe to the stomach. It continues to the small intestine for nutrient absorption and ends in the large intestine, where water is absorbed and waste is removed.
Mnemonic: " Some Healthy People Bite Slow"
Mnemonic Explanation :
Mnemonic: "Swallow, Store, Return, Re-chew"
Mnemonic Explanation: Ruminants like cows first swallow grass, store it in the rumen, then return it to the mouth to re-chew it thoroughly. This helps break down tough plant material for better digestion.
Mnemonic: "Nice Nose Takes Long Adventure"
Mnemonic Explanation: Air enters through the nostrils, travels via nasal passages and trachea, reaches the lungs, and ends at tiny sacs called alveoli, where gas exchange (oxygen and carbon dioxide) takes place.
Mnemonic: "In Down....Out Up" : Pair of Opposites
Mnemonic Explanation: During inhalation, the diaphragm moves down, creating space for air to enter. During exhalation, it moves up, pushing air out of the lungs.
