When you eat food it the starts in the mouth then goes down into the esophagus Then into stomach, into the small intestine, into the large intestine and into the anus. In the small intestine it takes 3 to 5 hours to digest and the large intestine takes 5 to 8 hours to digest.

Mermaids
Are mermaids real or not witch one will you pick. Well mermaids are real to me. Mermaids are hiding because they dont want to be seen by humans. Mermaids like to have peace because the humans may try to catch them and take them to show people. Mermaids are half human have fish. They swim very fast and better then humans swiming. Humans like people that go on ships love to find mermaids. Never catch a mermaid (dont do it).

harp seal pup
Millions of seals live in the brine, or salty seawater, of the north America, for example. Harp seals are used to cold. They're warm blooded mammals. Male seals weigh up to three hundred pounds. Harp seals only live in Greenland. During winter almost millions of seals sleep (i think). The mom gives birth to her baby. The mom goes and gets food and the dad sleeps.
