 To provide energy to our body for daily activities like
walking etc
 To grow new cells and tissues
 Repairing of damaged tissues
 Maintane a healthy body and production of heat
Food in our diet contains nutrients.
 The chemical breakdown of complex molecules into simple
and soluble components is called as digestion.
 Why food must be digested …..
Partially permeable cell membrane that allow small molecules
only to come in.
Two main groups
 Alimentary canal –
continuous coiled
hollow tube
 Accessory digestive
organs
 Mouth
 Pharynx
 Esophagus
 Stomach
 Small intestine
 Large intestine
 Anus
 Lips (labia) – protect
the anterior opening
 Cheeks – form the
lateral walls
 Hard palate – forms
the anterior roof
 Soft palate – forms
the posterior roof
 Uvula – fleshy
projection of the
soft palate
 Vestibule – space between lips externally
and teeth and gums internally
 Oral cavity – area contained by the teeth
 Tongue – attached at hyoid and styloid
processes of the skull, and by the lingual frenulum
 Serves as a passageway for air and food
 Food is propelled to the esophagus
by two muscle layers
1. Longitudinal inner layer
2. Circular outer layer
 Food movement is by alternating contractions
of the muscle layers (peristalsis…wave like mov.
that propel the food in stomach)
 Runs from pharynx to stomach through the diaphragm
 Conducts food by peristalsis
(slow rhythmic squeezing)
 Passageway for food only (respiratory system branches off
after the pharynx
 Regions of the stomach
 Cardiac region – near the heart
 Fundus
 Body
 Phylorus – funnel-shaped terminal end
 Food empties into the small intestine
 at the pyloric sphincter
 Rugae
Internal folds of mucosa
 External structures
Lessser curvature
Greater curvature
 Acts as a storage tank for food
 Site of food breakdown
 Chemical breakdown of protein begins
 Delivers chyme (processed food) to the small intestine
 Gastric glands – secrete gastric juice
 Chief cells – produce protein-digesting enzymes
(pepsinogens)
 Parietal cells – produce hydrochloric acid
 Endocrine cell- produce gastrin
 The body’s major digestive organ
 Site of nutrient absorption into the blood
 Muscular tube extending form the pyloric sphincter to the
ileocecal valve
 Suspended from the posterior abdominal wall by the
mesentery
 Duodenum
 Attached to the stomach
 Pancreatic ducts leads to duodenum
 Jejunum
 Attaches anteriorly to the duodenum
 Ileum
 Extends from jejunum to large intestine
 Absorption of digested nutrients
 Enzymes are mixed with chyme
 Intestinal cells
 Pancreatic juices
 Bile enters from the
gall bladder
 Finger like structures
formed by the mucosa.
 Give the small intestine
more surface area
 Small projections of the
plasma membrane
 Found on absorptive cells
 Absorptive cells
 Blood capillaries
 Lacteals (specialized lymphatic capillaries
 Called circular folds or plicae circulares
 Deep folds of the mucosa and submucosa
 Do not disappear when filled with food
 The submucosa has Peyer’s patches (collections of lymphatic
tissue)
 Enzymes from the brush border
 Break double sugars into simple sugars
 Complete some protein digestion
 Pancreatic enzymes play the major digestive function
 Help complete digestion of starch (pancreatic amylase)
 Carry out about half of all protein digestion (trypsin, etc.)
 Pancreatic enzymes play the major digestive function
(continued)
 Responsible for fat digestion (lipase)
 Digest nucleic acids (nucleases)
 Alkaline content neutralizes acidic chyme
 Water is absorbed along the length of the small intestine
 End products of digestion
 Most substances are absorbed by active transport through cell
membranes
 Lipids are absorbed by diffusion
 Substances are transported to the liver by the hepatic portal
vein or lymph
 Peristalsis is the major means of moving food
 Segmental movements
 Mix chyme with digestive juices
 Aid in propelling food
 Larger in diameter, but shorter than the small intestine
 Frames the internal abdomen
 Absorption of water
 Eliminates indigestible food from the body as feces
 Goblet cells produce mucus to act as a lubricant
 Cecum – saclike first part of the large intestine
 Appendix
 Accumulation of lymphatic tissue that sometimes becomes
inflamed (appendicitis)
 Hangs from the cecum
 Colon
 Ascending
 Transverse
 Descending
 S-shaped sigmoidal
 Rectum
 Anus – external body opening
 No digestive enzymes are produced
 Resident bacteria digest remaining nutrients
 Produce some vitamin K and B
 Release gases
 Water and vitamins K and B are absorbed
 Remaining materials are eliminated via feces
 Salivary glands..…saliva producing glands e.g parotid glands
 Teeth….. Helps to form a food bolus
 Pancreass………. Produces a wide spectrum of digestive enzymes
that break down all categories of food
 Liver…Largest gland in the body, Several roles in digestion
 Detoxifies drugs and alcohol
 Degrades hormones
 Produce cholesterol, blood proteins (albumin and clotting proteins)
 Plays a central role in metabolism
 Gall bladder…sac like structure that store bile.
 Ingestion – getting food into the mouth
 Propulsion – moving foods from one region of the digestive system to
another
 Mechanical digestion
Mixing of food in the mouth by the tongue
Churning of food in the stomach
Segmentation in the small intestine
 Sluggish peristalsis
 Mass movements
 Slow, powerful movements
 Occur three to four times per day
 Presence of feces in the rectum causes a defecation reflex
 Internal anal sphincter is relaxed
 Defecation occurs with relaxation of the voluntary (external)
anal sphincter
 Enzymes break down food molecules into their building blocks
 Each major food group uses different enzymes
 Carbohydrates are broken to simple sugars
 Proteins are broken to amino acids
 Fats are broken to fatty acids and alcohols
 Absorption
 End products of digestion are absorbed in the blood or lymph
 Food must enter mucosal cells and then into blood or lymph capillaries
 Defecation
 Elimination of indigestible substances as feces
 Stimuli include:
 Stretch of the organ
 pH of the contents
 Presence of breakdown products
 Reflexes include:
 Activation or inhibition of glandular secretions
 Smooth muscle activity
 Small intesitine is 6meter and laarge is 1.5 then reason of naming small
and large.
 Appendix
 Sphinctere
 There are few glands that help in digestive proces, e.g
salivary glands ,liver,pancreatic glands .your work is to
identify the location in the body and their working in
digestive system in 4 to 5 lines.
