In this assignment, you will write a story about how different foods travel through the digestive and excretory system from the mouth to the anus. Pretend that you are a food, such as pizza, traveling through the digestive system.

What happens to you at each part of the journey? Make your story creative and fun. The essay should be 1 to 1.5 pages, typed (using 12 pt. font), double-spaced. Your story should have the following elements:
• Describe how food travels through the digestive system.
• Include 3-4 different foods.
• Explain what occurs at each organ of digestion.
• Be written in the first-person point of view (This means you pretend that you are the food, so use I and me to refer to yourself).
