How long does it take a human to digest 1 stick of gum?

You've probably had someone tell you something ridiculous like "it takes seven years to digest a stick of chewing gum" and you don't believe it. Good for you, because it's total nonsense.

The actual fact is that you don't digest chewing gum. It passes through you in a couple of days, just like anything else you can't digest.

The "seven years" figure probably came either from putting a piece of gum in something resembling human digestive juices in the lab, and seeing how long it took for it to completely disappear, or someone just made it up to keep you from swallowing gum. But, as you know, your body doesn't just hold onto things until they're completely digested; that's why your gastrointestinal tract has an opening at the bottom also instead of just having one at the top.

Lacteals primarily absorb dietary fats, specifically triglycerides, which are broken down into fatty acids and monoglycerides during digestion.

This process allows for the effective absorption of fats, including fat-soluble vitamins.

Define the terms VLE explain the functions of such a system and compare the term and functions to others used in the educational sector?

The four primary functions of a computer system are:

Input -- Output -- Processing --Storage. For Example:

Input may be received from a keyboard or mouse.

Output may be sent to a monitor or printer.

Processing occurs in a micro-processor

Storage occurs on a medium such as a flash card or hard disk drive. Of the examples listed above, options are not limited to these devices. An installed component in a computer system may or may not be present. I.e. At a restaurant POS (Point of Sale) a touch screen may in fact be the 'input' device for the purpose of protecting equipment from unusual ware or the pure simplicity of training a new employee.

Note: The term VLE may not refer to the direct question of "What are the four primary functions of hardware?"
