I can write detailed paragraphs to explain what happens when food enters the body.

Show transcript
The main paragraphs in an explanation text tell the reader how the process of digestion is carried out. Subject-specific, scientific vocabulary ensures the reader learns accurate information. Fronted adverbials of order and place organise the paragraphs in a clear, chronological way. Subordinating conjunctions are used to begin an adverbial clause. An adverbial clause can be joined with a main clause to form an adverbial complex sentence.
