The digestive system performs the task of digestion. Food is taken into the digestive system, where it is enzymatically broken down into smaller and smaller particles for absorption. © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 4 Digestive System Functions 1. Ingestion of solids and liquids 2. Digestion of organic molecules (proteins, fats & carbohydrates) 3. Absorption of nutrients 4. Elimination of waste © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 5 Digestive System 1 Figure © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 16.1 6 Digestive System 2 The digestive system consists of the digestive tract, plus specific associated organs. The digestive tract is also referred to as the GI (gastrointestinal tract) The tract is one long tube from the mouth to the anus. © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education Digestive Tract Components 7 The digestive tract consists of the: oral cavity (mouth)- the beginning of digestion Pharynx- It transfer food to the esophagus Esophagus- receives that food Stomach-muscular organ small intestines- the primary site of nutrients absorption large intestines-absorbs water and electrolytes Rectum-stores feces © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education Associated Organs 8 The digestive system includes some associated organs not directly in the digestive tract, but have ducts that lead into the tract. These associated organs are the: Salivary glands- helps moisten food and starts breaking it down. Liver- makes a substance called bile, which helps break down fats. Gallbladder- stores bile from the liver and releases it into the small intestine when you eat fatty foods. Pancreas- makes digestive enzymes and sends © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 9 Layers of Digestive Tract Wall 1 The layers of the tract wall are also termed tunics. 1. Mucosa: innermost layer secretes mucus 2. Submucosa: above mucosa contains blood vessels, nerves, small glands © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 10 Layers of Digestive Tract Wall 2 3. Muscularis: above submucosa longitudinal, circular, and oblique muscles 4. Serosa/adventitia: outermost layer peritoneum is present called serosa no peritoneum then called adventitia © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 11 Digestive Tract Histology Figure © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 16.2 12 Peritoneum Layer of smooth epithelial tissue Mesenteries: connective tissue of organs in abdominal cavity (intestines). They also provide a path for blood vessels, nerves, and lymphatics to reach these organs. Lesser omentum: mesentery connecting lesser curvature of stomach to liver and diaphragm Greater omentum: mesentery connecting greater curvature of stomach to transverse colon and posterior body wall © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 13 Peritoneum and Mesenteries Figure © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 16.3 14 Oral Cavity 1 First part of digestive system. Salivary glands: produce saliva which contains special proteins called enzymes to breakdown carbohydrates into glucose. cleanse mouth dissolve and moisten food © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 15 Oral Cavity 2 Amylase: salivary enzyme that breaks down carbohydrates Lysozyme: salivary enzymes that are active against bacteria It is like a natural defense system in our saliva that targets and destroys harmful bacteria.

It has three parts: Nasopharynx-nasopharynx serves as an airway in the respiratory system Oropharynx-. It plays a crucial role in swallowing, as the muscles of the oropharynx contract to push the food bolus from the mouth into the laryngopharynx. Laryngopharynx- it directs food and liquids into the esophagus © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 24 Esophagus Tube that connects the pharynx to the stomach Transports food to the stomach Joins stomach at cardiac opening Heartburn: occurs when gastric juices regurgitate into esophagus caused by caffeine, smoking, or eating or drinking in excess © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 25 Swallowing Voluntary phase: bolus (mass of food) formed in mouth and pushed into oropharynx Pharyngeal phase: swallowing reflex initiated when bolus stimulates receptors in oropharynx Esophageal phase: moves food from pharynx to stomach Peristalsis: wave-like contractions moves food through digestive tract © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education Events During the Three Phases 26 of Swallowing Figure © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 16.8 27 Peristalsis Figure © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 16.9 28 Stomach 1 Located in abdomen Acts as a storage tank for food Can hold up to 2 liters of food Produces mucus, hydrochloric acid, protein digesting enzymes Contains a thick mucus layer that lubricates and protects epithelial cells on stomach wall form acidic pH (3) © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 29 Stomach 2 3 muscular layers: outer longitudinal, middle circular, and inner oblique to produce churning action Rugae: large folds that allow stomach to stretch Chyme: paste-like substance that forms when food begins to © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 30 Stomach 3 Pyloric opening: opening between stomach and small intestine Pyloric sphincter: thick, ring of smooth muscle around pyloric opening Hunger pangs: stomach is stimulated to contract by low blood glucose levels usually 12-24 hours © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 31 Anatomy and Histology of the Stomach Figure © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 16.10 (c) ©Victor Eroschenko 32 Regulation of Stomach Secretions 1 Cephalic phase: 1st phase (prepares the stomach for food) stomach secretions are initiated by sight, smell, taste, or food thought VAGUS NERVE---PARIETAL CELLS--- GASTRIN © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 33 Regulation of Stomach Secretions 2 Gastric phase: 2nd phase (Majority of gastric secretion) partially digested proteins and distention of stomach promote secretion HCL © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 34 Regulation of Stomach Secretions 3 Intestinal phase: 3rd phase(chyme enters the intestines) acidic chyme stimulates neuronal reflexes and secretions of hormones that inhibit gastric secretions. Secretin-slowdown gastric emptying © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 35 Movement in Stomach 1 Mixing waves: weak contraction in the stomach thoroughly mix food to form chyme Peristaltic waves: stronger contraction force chyme toward and through pyloric sphincter Stomach empties every 4 hours after regular meal, and 6 to 8 hours after high fatty meal © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 36 Small Intestine 1 Measures 6 meters in length Major absorptive organ Chyme takes 3 to 5 hours to pass through Contains enzymes to further breakdown food Contains secretions for protection against the acidity of chyme © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 37 Parts of Small Intestine 1 Duodenum: first part (where the food from the stomach enters the S.I) 25 cm long contains absorptive cells, goblet cells, granular cells, endocrine cells contains microvilli and many folds (for more efficient nutrient absorption). contains bile and pancreatic ducts (ducts release bile (from the liver) and enzymes (from the pancreas) to help digest fats and proteins, respectively) © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 38 Parts of Small Intestine 2 Jejunum: second part 2.5 meters long and absorbs nutrients Ileum: third part 3.5 meters long © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 39 Small Intestine 2 Figure © 2019 McGraw-Hill Education 16.13 40 Mucosa of the Small Intestine 1 The mucosa of the small intestine is simple columnar epithelium with four major cell types. 1.
