Human body is made up of countless millions of cells. Food is needed to build up new cells and replace the worn
out cells. However, the food that we take must be changed into substance that can be carried in the blood to the
places where they are needed, this process is called digestion.
The first digestive process takes places in the mouth. The food we eat is broken up into small pieces by the action
of teeth, mixed with saliva, a juice secreted by glands in the mouth. Saliva contains digestive juice which moisten
the food, so it can be swallowed easily.
From the mouth, food passes through the esophagus (the food passage) into the stomach. Here, the food is mixed
with the juices secreted by the cells in the stomach for several hours. Then the food enters the small intestine. All
the time the muscular walls of the intestine are squeezing, mixed and moving the food onwards.
In a few hours, the food changes into acids. There are soon absorbed by the villi (microscopic branch projections
from the intestine walls) walls and passed into the bloodstream.

The following text is for number 6-10!
Acid rain is rain that is highly acidic because of welirang oxides, nitrogen oxides, and other air pollutants dissolved
in it. Normal rain is slightly acidic, with a pH of 6. Acid rain may have a pH value as low as 2.8.
Acid rain can severely damage both plant and animal life. Certain lakes, for example, have lost all fish and plant life
because of acid rain.
Acid rain comes from welirang in coal and oil. When they burn, they make welirang dioxide (SO₂). Most welirang
leaves factory chimneys as the gaseous welirang dioxide (SO₂) and most nitrogen oxides (NO ᴏr NO₂), both of which
are gasses. The gasses may be dry deposited-absorbed directly by the land, by lakes or by the surface vegetation. If
they are in the atmosphere for anytime, the glasses will oxidize (gain an oxygen atom) and go into solution as acids.
Sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) and the nitrogen oxides will become nitric acid (HNO₃). The acids usually dissolve in cloud
droplets and may travel great distances before being precipitated as acid rain. Catalysts such as hydrogen peroxide,
ozone, and ammonium help promote the formation of acid in clouds. More ammonium (NH₄) can be formed when
some of the acids are partially neutralized by airborne ammonia (NH₃). Acidification increases with the number of
active hydrogen (H⁺) ions dissolved in acid. Hydrocarbons emitted by, for example, car exhaust will react in sunlight
with nitrogen oxides to produce ozone. Although it is invaluable in the atmosphere, low-level ozone causes
respiratory problems and also hastens the formation of acid rain. When acid rain falls on the ground it dissolves
and liberates heavy metals and aluminum (Al). When it is washes into lakes, aluminum irritates the outer surfaces
of many fish. As acid rain falls or drains into the lake the pH of the lake falls. Forests suffer the effect of acid rain
through damage to leaves, through the loss of vital nutrients, and through the increased amounts of toxic metals
liberated by acid, which damage roots and soil microorganisms.
