Digestion• The process that breaks down food into small molecules

so that they can be absorbed and moved into the blood.

• From the blood, food molecules are transported across the cell membrane to be used by the cell.

• Unused molecules pass out your body as wastes.

Organs

The Mouth

• Mechanical and chemical digestion begin in the mouth.

Page 30: Human Body Systems The Digestive System Digestion The process that breaks down food into small molecules so that they can be absorbed and moved into.

The Esophagus

• Muscular tube that connects the mouth to the stomach.– Epiglottis – covers

windpipe so food cannot enter.

– Smooth muscles squeeze to move food – peristalsis.

Page 31: Human Body Systems The Digestive System Digestion The process that breaks down food into small molecules so that they can be absorbed and moved into.

The Stomach

• Muscular bag.– Mechanical and chemical digestions occur.– Hydrochloric acid is produced in the

stomach and works with the enzyme pepsin to digest proteins.

– Hydrochloric acid also destroys bacteria in foods.

HYDROCHLORIC ACID can also harm your teeth…

Page 33: Human Body Systems The Digestive System Digestion The process that breaks down food into small molecules so that they can be absorbed and moved into.

The Stomach– Mucus makes food slippery and protects stomach from

digestive juices.– Food moves through the stomach in 2-4 hours.– Chyme – When food is changed into a thin watery

liquid.

The Stomach

• When the mucus is compromised, hydrochloric acid can make ULCERS in a persons stomach.

Liver/Gall Bladder/Pancreas

• The small intestine picks up chemicals from these organs to help with digestion…

Liver

• Liver – Largest organ, it is a chemical factory that produces bile and removes toxins.

Page 38: Human Body Systems The Digestive System Digestion The process that breaks down food into small molecules so that they can be absorbed and moved into.

Pancreas

• Pancreas - produces insulin. A hormone that helps digest sugars.

The Small Intestine• 4-7 meters in length, small diameter.– Duodenum – where most digestion takes place.– Absorption of food takes place with help of villi – fingerlike

projections on wall of small intestine and increases surface area so nutrients in chyme have more places to absorb.

– Peristalsis continues to force undigested and unabsorbed materials into large intestine.

The Large Intestine

• Absorbs water from undigested mass.– Peristalsis slows down.– Remaining undigested

material becomes solid.– Muscles of the rectum

and anus control the release of wastes from body in form of feces.
