The Digestive System
Introduction
• This comprises organs that break down and
  digest food, and remove unabsorbed wastes
  from the body. Its main feature is the
  alimentary canal (gut) measuring about 30
  feet (9m) in length.
Anatomical Structure Overview 1
• Mouth cavity: Teeth, tongue, salivary glands,
  and other structures begin processing food for
  swallowing.
• Esophagus: Connects the throat and the
  stomach. Food is moved by an action called
  “peristalsis”.
• Stomach: Food is churned, disinfected, and
  begins to digest.
Anatomical Structure Overview 2
• Sphincters: Rings of muscle that close at the
  junction of the stomach, the duodenum, and the
  anus.
• Digestive juices: Saliva, gastric, sm. Intestine,
  and pancreatic juices contain enzymes for
  digesting specific food substances.
• Small intestine: Approx 21 ft (6.5m) in length,
  and connects the stomach and lg. intestine.
  Subdivisions (beginning from the stomach) are
  the duodenum, the jejunum, and ileum. Most
  digestion occurs here.
Anatomical Structure Overview 3
• Large intestine: Approximately 5 ft (1.5m) in
  length, and runs from the ileum to the
  rectum. Main sections are the cecum, the
  ascending, transverse, and descending colon,
  and the sigmoid flexure.
• Appendix: A narrow tube projecting from the
  cecum.
• Rectum: Extends from the sigmoid flexure
  and ends at the anus.
Anatomical Structure Overview 4
• Liver: This large organ in the upper part of the
  abdomen secretes bile and stores vitamins.
• Gall bladder: This sac, located behind the
  liver, stores bile to be released into the
  duodenum.
• Pancreas: A large gland that secretes insulin
  and pancreatic juice into the duodenum.

     the portal (liver) system
