This document describes digestion that occurs in the mouth, esophagus, stomach, and small intestine. In the mouth, food is mechanically and chemically broken down by teeth and saliva enzymes. The chewed food or bolus is then swallowed through the esophagus using peristalsis. In the stomach, the bolus is further broken down by stomach muscles and enzymes in gastric juice. When fully digested, the liquid chyme exits the stomach into the small intestine where bile, pancreatic juice, and bicarbonate aid in further digestion before nutrients are absorbed in the jejunum and ileum.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
2. (1) Digestive Organs
• Oral Cavity
• Esophagus
• Stomach
• Small Intestine
• Large Intestine
3. • Food is digested in the mouth both mechanically and chemically.
• Mechanically Teeth chew and physically break down food into smaller units.|
• Chemically Enzymes in your saliva help to break down biomolecules in food.
(2) What happens in the mouth?
4.
5. • Saliva lubricates food for esophageal transfer.
• Saliva contains an enzyme called Amylase.
• Amylase breaks down polysaccharides
like starch into disaccharides.
(3) Chemical Digestion in the Mouth
6. • Once food is chewed up and mixed with saliva, it is
ready to travel down the esophagus.
• Chewed up food mixed with saliva is called “Bolus”.
• Bolus should be completely soft and moist.
(4) Mouth to Esophagus
7. • Deglutition is the proper term for swallowing.
• There are 2 Phases of Deglutition:
• The Buccal Phase
• Voluntary
• The tongue moves the bolus into the pharynx and back of the throat.
• The Pharyngeal-Esophageal Phase
• Involuntary
• The epiglottis closes over the larynx.
• Bolus is pushed down into the esophagus
(5) Swallowing
8.
9. • The esophagus is the highway between the mouth and stomach.
• Food is pushed through the esophagus using Peristalsis.
• Peristalsis Involuntary, wave-like contraction of muscle used to push softer /
more liquid-like substances through an organ.
(6) Traveling thru the Esophagus
11. • The stomach can contain up to 1.5L of food comfortably.
• The stomach is composed of folds of excess tissue called “rugae”.
• Rugae in the stomach allow it to:
• Expand and enlarge as it fills with food and liquid.
• Secrete digestive solutions for food metabolism.
(1) Stomach Structure
12. • Food is broken down both mechanically and chemically in the stomach.
• Mechanical Digestion:
• Stomach muscles use peristalsis to break down bolus.
• Peristalsis is triggered by the release of a neurotransmitter called serotonin (from within the
rugae).
• Chemical Digestion:
• Gastric Juice is secreted from the rugae, to break down the bolus using enzymes and acid.
(2) Digestion in the Stomach
13.
14. • Hydrochloric Acid
• Pepsin (an Enzyme that metabolizes Protein)
• Rennin (an Enzyme that metabolizes Protein)
• Muccin (an Enzyme that lubricates the food mass)
(3) Gastric Juice Composition
15. • The hormone Gastrin is released from the G-Cells in between the Rugae folds:
• Triggered by smell and taste.
• Triggered by the increase in pH when food drops into the stomach.
• Gastrin stimulates the release of Hydrochloric Acid from the rugae in the stomach:
• HCl decreases the pH in the stomach.
• HCl metabolizes proteins and carbohydrates.
• Gastrin stimulates peristaltic movement in the stomach, and small and large intestine.
(4) Gastric Juice Secretion
16. • Proteins are complex molecules which require a lot to be broken down.
• When proteins are metabolized, a large concentration of Hydrogen ions are
released (which decreases the pH of the stomach).
• The decrease in pH signals to the brain that the food is digested, and the G-Cells
in the stomach stop releasing gastrin.
(5) Protein Metabolism
17. • Once food is digested, the stomach stops churning and secreting gastric juice.
• Food them moves into small intestine.
• The liquefied mass leaving the stomach is called “Chyme”.
• Chyme exits out the Pyloric Sphincter into the small intestine.
(6) Leaving the Stomach
20. • First Chamber = Duodenum (~10in long)
• Second Chamber = Jejunum (~7-8ft long)
• Third Chamber = Ileum (~12ft long)
(1) Small Intestine Regions
21.
22. • The duodenum contains a solution used to metabolize any remaining
biomolecules from the stomach.
• The solution contains: Bile, Pancreatic Juice and Bicarbonate.
(2) The Duodenum
23.
24. • Bile is a yellow-green solution produced by the liver, and stored in
the gallbladder.
• Bile contains salt compounds, lipids, and waste pigments from blood
cells.
• The function of bile is to emulsify lipids for better absorption…
• Lipids form micelles since they are polarized molecules.
• Bile helps break apart the micelles into individual lipids.
• This allows our bodies to more easily absorb them.
(3) Bile
25.
26. • Pancreatic Juice is produced by and stored in the Pancreas.
• Contains:
• Carboxypeptidase and Chymotrypsin enzymes for metabolizing
protein.
• Amylase enzyme for further carbohydrate metabolism.
• Lipase enzymes for lipid metabolism.
• Nuclease enzymes for nucleic acid metabolism.
(4) Pancreatic Juice
27. • The presence of metabolized proteins and lipids in the duodenum
triggers the release of CCK (Cholecystokinin) into the blood stream.
• CCK stimulates the release of bile and pancreatic juice into the
duodenum.
• The solutions secrete out of an opening called the “Sphincter of
Oddi”.
(5) Releasing Bile & Pancreatic Juice
28.
29. • Bicarbonate is a compound which balances out a solution’s pH by
absorbing and releasing hydrogen ions.
• The chyme that leaves the stomach is extremely acidic.
• Bicarbonate neutralizes the low pH.
• Bicarbonate is secreted from glands in the duodenum called
“Brunner’s Glands”.
(6) Bicarbonate
30.
31. • Used to absorb all nutrients from food and liquid.
• Both contain microvilli:
• Microvilli are small finger-like projections used to absorb nutrients.
• They are directly connected to capillaries and the blood stream.
• Folds in between the microvilli are called the “Crypts of
Lieberkuhn”:
• These folds secrete Lysozymes to kill bacterial cells.
• The folds also secrete Muccin to further lubricate food.
(7) The Jejunum & Ileum
