Digestion
![Page 2: Digestion. Functions: Ingest: take food in through mouth Mechanical processing: manipulate (chew/swallow) from mouth, mixing in stomach Digestion: chemical.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649eaa5503460f94baed33/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Functions: Ingest: take food in through mouthMechanical processing: manipulate
(chew/swallow) from mouth, mixing in stomach
Digestion: chemical breakdown of foodSecretion: release water, acid, enzymes Absorption: move small organic
molecules, vitamins, waterExcretion: Remove waste products from
body fluids

Consists of: alimentary canal ( 9 m from mouth to anus) and accessory organs
![Page 4: Digestion. Functions: Ingest: take food in through mouth Mechanical processing: manipulate (chew/swallow) from mouth, mixing in stomach Digestion: chemical.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649eaa5503460f94baed33/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Structure of the Wall of the Alimentary Canal1. Mucosa (mucous membrane) – protects tissues, carries out absorption; in small intestine contains villi
2. Submucosa - contains blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, nerves – control contraction of smooth muscle
![Page 5: Digestion. Functions: Ingest: take food in through mouth Mechanical processing: manipulate (chew/swallow) from mouth, mixing in stomach Digestion: chemical.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649eaa5503460f94baed33/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
3. Muscularis Externa – smooth muscle tissue, circular and longitudinal fibers, pushes food through tract
4. Serosa (serous layer) – visceral peritoneum, outer covering of the tube, moistens and lubricates structures
![Page 6: Digestion. Functions: Ingest: take food in through mouth Mechanical processing: manipulate (chew/swallow) from mouth, mixing in stomach Digestion: chemical.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649eaa5503460f94baed33/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Movements of the TubeMixing Movements – rhythmic contractions that mix food with digestive juicesPropelling Movements – rings of muscles contract and relax to push food down the canal (PERISTALSIS)

Oral Cavity
Mouth – begins digestion by reducing size of particles (chewing) and mixing with saliva
Tongue – moves food during chewing, connects to the floor of the mouth via the frenulum, contains papillae (taste buds)
![Page 8: Digestion. Functions: Ingest: take food in through mouth Mechanical processing: manipulate (chew/swallow) from mouth, mixing in stomach Digestion: chemical.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649eaa5503460f94baed33/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Palate – forms roof of oral cavity (hard and soft), uvula at back of the mouth
Palatine tonsils – back of the mouth/throat, organs that protect against infection
Teeth – primary vs. secondary teeth; incisors, cuspids, bicuspids (premolars), molars
![Page 9: Digestion. Functions: Ingest: take food in through mouth Mechanical processing: manipulate (chew/swallow) from mouth, mixing in stomach Digestion: chemical.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649eaa5503460f94baed33/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Anatomy of a ToothCrown – projects above the gumsRoot – anchored to the alveolar
process of the jawEnamel – made of calcium salts, hardest substance in body (outer surface)
Dentin – similar to bone, surrounds tooth’s central cavity
Blood vessels and nerves extend through the tooth via the root canal

Pharynx and Esophagus
Pharynx – nasal and oral cavitys - nasopharynx, oropharynx, laryngopharynx
Esophagus – prevent food and chemicals from moving up out of stomach

Stomach*J-shaped, pouch-like organ that hangs inferior to the diaphragm, 1 liter capacity
3 sets of stomach muscles: longitudinal, oblique, circular :Greater and Lesser Curvature
![Page 15: Digestion. Functions: Ingest: take food in through mouth Mechanical processing: manipulate (chew/swallow) from mouth, mixing in stomach Digestion: chemical.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649eaa5503460f94baed33/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Four main parts of the stomach 1. Cardiac (esophageal opening, cardiac sphincter)2. Fundus (temporary storage area, lies slightly above the cardiac region)3. Body (central area of the stomach)4. Pyloric (pyloric sphincter, controls emptying of the stomach into the sm. Intestine)
![Page 16: Digestion. Functions: Ingest: take food in through mouth Mechanical processing: manipulate (chew/swallow) from mouth, mixing in stomach Digestion: chemical.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649eaa5503460f94baed33/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
![Page 17: Digestion. Functions: Ingest: take food in through mouth Mechanical processing: manipulate (chew/swallow) from mouth, mixing in stomach Digestion: chemical.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649eaa5503460f94baed33/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Lining of the stomach is a mucous membrane – with small openings called gastric pits, containing gastric glands
Gastric Juice - pepsin / intrinsic factor
Chyme – paste of food molecules after its been broken down by the movement of stomach and gastric juices, it is released from the pyloric sphincter valve into the first portion of the small intestine – duodenum
Rugae – folds within the stomach, increase surface area
![Page 18: Digestion. Functions: Ingest: take food in through mouth Mechanical processing: manipulate (chew/swallow) from mouth, mixing in stomach Digestion: chemical.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649eaa5503460f94baed33/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
3 Phases of stomach digestionCephalic- seeing or smelling food – starts to accelerate the production of gastric juices
Gastric- Food arrives in the stomach increasing digestive acids/enzymes; release gastrin(hormone) into blood which causes stomach contraction
Intestinal- chyme enters the small intestine

LiverBILIARY SYSTEM – functions to create bile used in digestion; liver, gall bladder and ducts
LIVER- has large right lobe and small left lobe
Hepatic portal vein – delivers blood to the liver

Functions: Maintains normal concentration of blood
glucose breakdown of lipids and fatsprotein metabolism (forming urea,
synthesizing plasma proteins such as clotting factors, converting amino acids)
stores iron and vitaminsdestroys damaged red blood cellsremoves toxic substances from the bloodsecretes bile

Bileyellowish-green liquid secreted
from hepatic cells (when bile pigments build up in blood, skin turns green, a condition called jaundice). The hepatic duct joins the cystic duct to form the common bile duct, which empties into the duodenum
Bile aids in digestion, bile salts break down fat globules into smaller droplets – emulsification
