Major Organs of the Digestive Tract Oral Cavity (Mouth) Ingestion, mechanical processing with accessory organs (teeth and tongue), moistening, mixing with salivary secretions Pharynx Muscular propulsion of materials into the esophagus Esophagus Transport of materials to the stomach Stomach Chemical breakdown of materials by acid and enzymes; mechanical processing through muscular contractions Small Intestine Enzymatic digestion and absorption of water, organic substrates, vitamins, and ions Large Intestine Dehydration and compaction of indigestible materials in preparation for elimination Anus © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Accessory Organs of the Digestive System Teeth Mechanical processing by chewing (mastication) Tongue Assists mechanical processing with teeth, sensory analysis Salivary Glands Secretion of lubricating fluid containing enzymes that break down carbohydrates Liver Secretion of bile (important for lipid digestion), storage of nutrients, many other vital functions Gallbladder Storage and concentration of bile Endocrine > directly Pancreas - secrete into Exocrine cells secrete buffers blood stream and digestive enzymes; Endocrine cells secrete hormones Exocrine > - through a. duct © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.
