The Digestive System: Part I

“Food’s Highway”

Slide3

Digestion

To be processed and expelled, food must pass through various digestive organs

Food goes through the following organs: Mouth



Esophagus



Stomach



Small and Large Intestines



Rectum



Anus

Slide4

The Oral Cavity, Pharynx, Esophagus

Food begins digestion in the mouth Both physical and chemical digestion of food begin in the oral cavity The food is broken down physically by chewing, making it easier to swallow and increase surface area. The presence of food in the mouth activates salivary glands. The saliva starts the breaking down of food. -An enzyme, salivary amylase, hydrolyzes starch and glycogen. The tongue manipulates food into a ball called the bolus. It is pushed into the back of the throat to the pharynx

Slide5

To prevent choking, when we swallow the epiglottis blocks the windpipe.

From the pharynx the food is conducted to the stomach by the esophagus.

Swallowing begins voluntarily but is taken over involuntarily by peristalsis.

Peristalsis is the contraction of smooth muscle to help move food along the digestive tract.

Slide6

The Stomach

The stomach stores food and performs the preliminary steps of digestion.

Before storing food, the stomach secretes gastric juice. This juice mixes with the food.

Gastric acid binds cells together in meat and plant material. It also kills most bacteria in food.

Pepsinogen, an inactive form of pepsin is also secreted so the gastric juice doesn’t burn the stomachs lining.

Slide7

Every 20 seconds the stomachs contents are mixed by the churning of smooth muscles.

As a result of mixing and enzyme action, the food in the stomach becomes a nutrient rich broth called acid chyme.

The stomachs ends are usually both closed off. At the top, its closed by the cardiac orifice, which only opens when a bolus arrives.

Backflow may occur, causing heartburn

At the bottom, the stomach is closed off by the pyloric sphincter.

It helps regulate the passage of chyme into the intestine, one squirt at a time.

Slide8

The Small Intestine

Most of enzyme hydrolysis occurs in the small intestine.

Acid chyme from the stomach mixes with digestive juices from the pancreas, liver, gallbladder, and gland cells of the intestinal wall in the duodenum.

The duodenum is the first 25 cm of the small intestine.

The jejunum and ileum function mainly to absorb nutrients and water.

Slide9

The small intestine contains villi which also contain microvilli. These structures help to increase the rate of nutrient absorption.

Small vessels of the lymphatic system called lacteal.

Capillaries within the villi converge into the hepatic portal vein, which leads to the liver.

It ensures that the liver is the first to receive access to sugars and amino acids

Slide10

The Large Intestine

The large intestine is also known as the colon.

The appendix is located on the large intestine. It is dispensable.

The large intestines major function is to recover water that has entered the alimentary canal.

The wastes of the digestive tract, the feces, become more solid as they move along the colon by peristalsis.

The terminal portion of the colon is called the rectum. Feces are stored here until they can be eliminated.

Slide11

Key Terms

Mouth

- the first part of digestion takes place here. Chemical and mechanical digestion start here.

Esophagus

- tube between mouth and stomach. Forces food down to stomach by peristalsis

Stomach

- sac like muscular organ attached to esophagus. Stores food and starts digestion.

Small Intestine

- long tube winding from the stomach. Named small intestine for its diameter not length

Large Intestine

- tube that food travels through after the small intestine. Also called the colon.

Gall-bladder

-small sac like organ by the duodenum. Stores and releases bile.

Duodenum

- the first 25 cm of the small intestine.

Liver

- organ above the stomach. It filters toxins and makes bile and blood proteins.

Slide12

The Excretory System: Part II

Slide13

Urine Production

The process of producing the fluid waste “urine” occurs in four steps:

Filtration: Filtrate from the blood is collected by the excretory tubule. Water and solutes (which make up the filtrate) are forced across the selectively permeable membranes of capillary clusters and then into the excretory tubule.

Reabsorption: The transport epithelium reabsorbs valuable solutes from the filtrate and returns them to the body fluids.

Slide14

Secretion: The remaining substances, such as toxins and excess ions are removed and added to the excretory tubule.Excretion: The filtrate leaves the system and the body.

Slide15

The Kidneys

They are the principal site for water balance and salt regulation; they are found in a pair

Receive blood from the renal artery and it is drained from the renal vein; blood flow through the kidneys is voluminous

Urine exits them through the ureters and they drain into a single urinary bladder and from there, the urine exits through the urethra (found near the vagina in females and in the penis in males)

Slide16

Consist of two different regions: the renal cortex (outer part) and the renal medulla (the inner part)Contains about a million nephrons; each nephron has a single long tubule and a ball of capillaries called a glomerulusThe blind end of the excretory tubule forms a cup shaped swelling known as a “Bowman’s capsule”-it surrounds the glomerulusThe initial filtration of blood, which is nonselective, occurs in the Bowman’s capsule firstThe filtrate then travels in spiraled direction to other regions including the proximal tubule, the loop of Henle, and the distal tubule which empties into the collecting ductFrom the collecting duct, processed filtrate is transported to the renal pelvis and drained by the uretersADH (Antidiuretic hormone) helps to regulate reabsorption levels and adjust the volume and osmolarity of urine, by increasing and decreasing permeability in the epitheliumA special tissue known as the juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA) affects blood volume and pressure levels in the glomerulus
