The document summarizes key aspects of digestion and absorption in the small intestine. It notes that the small intestine is the primary site of digestion and absorption of food through secreted enzymes and membrane-bound enzymes on enterocytes. Absorption occurs via several mechanisms, including simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, active transport, endocytosis, and paracellular transport. The surface area is greatly increased by folding and villi and microvilli. Carbohydrates are absorbed via active transport of glucose and galactose and facilitated transport of fructose. Proteins are absorbed via endocytosis of whole proteins or active transport of amino acids. Fats are absorbed through a multi-step process involving bile salts and enzymes breaking down fats

McNAIR DIGESTION SUPPLEMENTAL CHAPTER
The document provides an overview of the digestive system, including its major components and functions. It describes the roles and processes of the mouth, esophagus, stomach, and small intestine. In the mouth, food is broken down mechanically by teeth and chemically by saliva. The esophagus transports swallowed food to the stomach through peristalsis. In the stomach, food is further broken down by acids and enzymes. The small intestine, specifically the duodenum, is where most digestion and absorption occurs, aided by secretions from the liver, gallbladder, and pancreas.
Your liver
The liver is the largest internal organ, located in the upper right abdomen. It performs over 200 functions including storing nutrients, secreting bile, and synthesizing proteins and cholesterol. The liver creates bile which is composed of water, ions, bile acids, and organic molecules. Bile emulsifies fats during digestion so they can be absorbed by the small intestine. The liver also processes waste from red blood cell breakdown and other metabolic activities.
Life processes
Human beings are heterotrophic organisms that require carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins and minerals from their diet to survive. The process of nutrition involves ingestion, digestion, assimilation, absorption and egestion. The human digestive system consists of the alimentary canal and secretory glands including the salivary glands, liver and pancreas. Digestion begins in the mouth where food is broken down by teeth and saliva before moving through the esophagus and stomach for further digestion. The small intestine is the primary site of digestion and absorption of nutrients with help from enzymes in pancreatic juices and bile before waste is eliminated in the large intestine and rectum.

Physiology of digestion_10_01_2019_physiology (1)
Digestion breaks down large food molecules into smaller molecules that can be absorbed into the bloodstream. Absorption is the transport of these smaller molecules across the intestinal epithelium. In the small intestine, both chemical digestion by enzymes and mechanical digestion break down food. Absorption occurs through active transport, facilitated diffusion, endocytosis and other processes. Disorders can occur if any part of the digestion or absorption process is disrupted, such as with pancreatic insufficiency, cystic fibrosis, or celiac disease.

The six main functions of the digestive system are ingestion, mechanical and chemical digestion, secretion, absorption, and excretion. The digestive tract includes the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine. Accessory organs that aid in digestion include the teeth, tongue, salivary glands, liver, gallbladder and pancreas. In the small intestine, nutrients are absorbed into the bloodstream and lymphatic system.
Digestion Presentation
1. Digestion is the process of breaking down food particles into smaller molecules that can be absorbed. There are two main types of digestion - intracellular where food is taken into cells, and extracellular where enzymes are secreted outside cells.
2. Different organisms have varying digestive systems depending on their food source. Examples include sponges that engulf food into cells, coelenterates with a gastrovascular cavity, and humans with a multi-chambered alimentary canal containing teeth, stomach, and intestines.
3. In humans, digestion involves both mechanical and chemical breakdown. Food is broken down by teeth and enzymes in the mouth, stomach, and small intestine. Most absorption occurs in the small intestine, where
Electrohfvb.ppt
This document provides an overview of gastrointestinal physiology, focusing on absorption of water and ions. It describes how intestinal epithelial cells regulate ion and fluid movement through transcellular and paracellular transport. Key transport mechanisms involve sodium-hydrogen exchangers, sodium-glucose cotransporters, and chloride channels. Disruptions in these pathways can cause secretory diarrhea from enterotoxins or malabsorptive diarrhea from mucosal damage. Overall, tight regulation of electrolyte transport across the gut epithelium maintains fluid homeostasis and absorptive vs secretory functions in health and disease states.

Muscle contraction
This document summarizes the mechanism of muscle contraction. It discusses:
- Motor units consisting of motor neurons and muscle fibers.
- The sliding filament theory proposed by Huxley and Hanson which explains contraction in three steps: depolarization, contraction, and relaxation.
- During depolarization, acetylcholine is released causing calcium release and muscle fiber depolarization.
- Contraction occurs as calcium binds troponin, exposing actin binding sites and allowing cross-bridge cycling to occur as myosin heads pull actin fibers.
- Relaxation happens as calcium is reabsorbed, troponin moves back, and cross-bridges detach, relaxing the muscle.
Cardiac cycle
The cardiac cycle involves four main phases: atrial systole, ventricular systole, ventricular diastole, and atrial diastole. During atrial systole, the atria contract and push blood into the ventricles. In ventricular systole, the ventricles contract and pump blood out of the heart. This is followed by ventricular diastole when the ventricles relax and refill with blood. Finally, during atrial diastole the atria relax and refill with blood to prepare for the next cycle. The cycle repeats with contraction and relaxation of the atria and ventricles in precise sequence to efficiently pump blood through the body.
Structure of human heart
The human heart is located in the thoracic cavity between the lungs. It is composed of three layers - the outer pericardium, middle myocardium made of heart muscle, and inner endocardium. The heart is divided into four chambers - two upper atria which receive blood, and two lower ventricles which pump blood out. The internal structure includes valves that allow blood to flow in only one direction, preventing backflow.
Thyroid and Parathyroid Gland
The thyroid and parathyroid glands are important endocrine glands located in the neck. The thyroid gland secretes thyroxine and calcitonin which regulate metabolism and calcium levels. Disorders can result from too little or too much secretion. The parathyroid glands secrete parathyroid hormone which regulates calcium levels in the blood by increasing calcium absorption and mobilizing calcium from bones. Disorders include hypocalcemia from low secretion or bone issues from high secretion.
Endocrine system pituitary gland
The pituitary gland, also known as the master gland, regulates many important bodily functions through the hormones it secretes. It is located at the base of the brain and consists of an anterior and posterior lobe. The anterior lobe produces hormones that control growth, metabolism, reproduction, and lactation. These hormones are regulated by hormones from the hypothalamus. The posterior lobe stores and releases oxytocin and vasopressin, which are synthesized in the hypothalamus and influence water balance, muscle contraction, and blood pressure. Disorders of the pituitary can impact growth, metabolism, and other important processes.

Stem cells and its application
Stem cells can be categorized into two major types: embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells. Embryonic stem cells are derived from the inner cell mass of a blastocyst and are pluripotent, while adult stem cells are found in adult tissues and have more limited potential. Stem cells show promise for developing therapies for diseases like Parkinson's disease and diabetes by replacing damaged or defective cells. Stem cell therapies are being tested for conditions such as autoimmune diseases, heart disease, brain injuries, and multiple sclerosis.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
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.

Digestion and absorption
- 1. By Suprabha panda Dept of zoology, Governmemt City college, Hyderabad.
- 2. Small intestine is primary site for digestion and absorption of food. Digestion occurs in the GI lumen by secreted enzymes and on surface of enterocytes by membrane-bound enzymes. Absorption occurs by simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, active transport, endocytosis, and paracellular transport. Surface area of small intestine is greatly increased by extensive folding and the projection of finger like villi covered with microvilli. Digestion and Absorption
