Eggs as food
Humans and their hominid relatives have consumed eggs for millions of years.
See Ingestion and Eggs as food
Excretion
Excretion is elimination of metabolic waste, which is an essential process in all organisms. Ingestion and Excretion are digestive system.
Fecal–oral route
The fecal–oral route (also called the oral–fecal route or orofecal route) describes a particular route of transmission of a disease wherein pathogens in fecal particles pass from one person to the mouth of another person.
See Ingestion and Fecal–oral route
Feces
Feces (or faeces;: faex) are the solid or semi-solid remains of food that was not digested in the small intestine, and has been broken down by bacteria in the large intestine.
Flour
Flour is a powder made by grinding raw grains, roots, beans, nuts, or seeds.
Food
Food is any substance consumed by an organism for nutritional support.
Foreign body
A foreign body (FB) is any object originating outside the body of an organism.
See Ingestion and Foreign body
Gastrointestinal tract
The gastrointestinal tract (GI tract, digestive tract, alimentary canal) is the tract or passageway of the digestive system that leads from the mouth to the anus. The GI tract contains all the major organs of the digestive system, in humans and other animals, including the esophagus, stomach, and intestines. Ingestion and gastrointestinal tract are digestive system.
See Ingestion and Gastrointestinal tract
Grille (architecture)
A grille or grill (French word from Latin craticula, small grill) is an opening of several slits side-by-side in a wall, metal sheet or another barrier, usually to allow air or water to enter and/or leave and prevent larger objects (such as animals) from going in or out.
See Ingestion and Grille (architecture)
Hand washing
Hand washing (or handwashing), also known as hand hygiene, is the act of cleaning one's hands with soap or handwash and water to remove viruses/bacteria/microorganisms, dirt, grease, and other harmful or unwanted substances stuck to the hands.
See Ingestion and Hand washing
Hepatitis A
Hepatitis A is an infectious disease of the liver caused by Hepatovirus A (HAV); it is a type of viral hepatitis.
Host (biology)
In biology and medicine, a host is a larger organism that harbours a smaller organism; whether a parasitic, a mutualistic, or a commensalist guest (symbiont).
See Ingestion and Host (biology)
Irritability
Irritability is the excitatory ability that living organisms have to respond to changes in their environment.
See Ingestion and Irritability
Larva
A larva (larvae) is a distinct juvenile form many animals undergo before metamorphosis into their next life stage.
List of abnormal behaviours in animals
Abnormal behaviour in animals can be defined in several ways. Ingestion and List of abnormal behaviours in animals are Ethology.

See Ingestion and Oral administration
Organism
An organism is defined in a medical dictionary as any living thing that functions as an individual.
Parasitism
Parasitism is a close relationship between species, where one organism, the parasite, lives on or inside another organism, the host, causing it some harm, and is adapted structurally to this way of life.
Pathogen
In biology, a pathogen (πάθος, "suffering", "passion" and -γενής, "producer of"), in the oldest and broadest sense, is any organism or agent that can produce disease.
Pathogen transmission
In medicine, public health, and biology, transmission is the passing of a pathogen causing communicable disease from an infected host individual or group to a particular individual or group, regardless of whether the other individual was previously infected.
