How does water assist in degestion and absorption?
Water hydrates the body and rids it of excess salts and toxins. Water is also very good for the large intestine, where it is absorbed by feacal matter to make it more 'fluffy'. It causes softening of the stool and facilitates an easier exit.
What is the most important part of the digestive system?
Ice cream is the most important absorbing organ in the digestive system.
How do you apply insight learning theory in the classroom?
Educational Implications: (i) The teacher should present a topic as a whole, teaching the relationship between the constituent parts so that understanding of the learning situation results: The learning experiences should be so arranged that the learner discovers & generalises the relationship by himself. The subject matter should be organised into larger units / meaningful wholes. The concept of unit - planning is based on the gestalt psychology of learning. The children should, at the end, be able to perceive the relationship between different units taught. The teacher should maintain the continuity while teaching a big unit in smaller parts. While teaching Geography, parts of a flower, etc. the region / flower should be emphasized. While reading the spelling should be read as a whole word & not individual letters; in Maths, the relationship between the different steps should be made clear; while teaching grammar, the functional aspect is also to be emphasized. Just definitions about nouns, pronouns etc, without showing how they are used, is going to be of no value. In Biology different systems (respiration, degestion, circulation, etc.) should be related into an organised whole - functioning of the human body. (ii) The 'purpose' or 'motive' plays the central role in the learning process. Hence the students should be motivated by arousing their interest & curiosity. (iii) Understanding, reasoning & such use of creative mental powers is needed rather than rote learning or dirll / practice work. The learner should be given opportunities to use thinking & reasoning powers. Instead of giving him re facts & figures, he should be placed in the position of an independent enquirer / discoverer. Instead of spoon - 4 feeding the information, scientific & progressive methods like analytic & problem solving which advocate learning by insight should be made popular. However, it is difficult to rely exclusively on particular method to teach a topic. A method cannot be based purely on stimulus response or field theories. This is because all children are not equally intelligent nor have the required capacity for insight learning at a particular moment. Hence, the whole - part - whole method is to be emphasized, which in involves the giving of the general outline or broad features of the topic; then analysis the various specifics through stimulus response associations, then generalize & integrate into a summated whole unit / topic.
How do you know you have appendicitis?
Try these tricks:When there is abdominal pain, push down in the spot that it hurts the most. Does it hurt more when you are pushing in, or when you let go? If it hurts most when you let go, that's called rebound tenderness, and it's likely to be appendicitis.Lay on your back, and lift your right leg without bending your knee. If it hurts really bad, it's likely to be appendicitis.It rarely goes away. That happened with me several times. You will experience having farts that smell like diarrhea.I don't believe there are any symptoms of you appendix. . . considering it is a part of your body. . . It doesn't really function as anything in particular, however, if bile gets caught in it during degestion, it will get infected and swell up. This is called appendicitis. It will swell and burst, releasing the infection into the rest of the body, eventually killing the host. (This is all if it isn't caught early on)Based on your description in the Discussion area, best answer, you could. Your parents would be your best resource here. Seek medical attention, and let professional medical personnel determine it, not a world full of internet strangers.
