The Digestive System and Body
Metabolism
Ingestion – taking in food
Digestion
Breakdown of food; Absorpt.of nutrients
into blood stream
Chemically (enzymes)/Mechanically
Metabolism
Production of cellular energy (ATP)
Constructive and degradative cellular

Slide 14.1
Organs of the Digestive System
Two main groups
Alimentary canal – continuous coiled hollow
tube
Accessory digestive organs
Ex. Liver, gall bladder, pancreas

Organs of the Alimentary Canal
Mouth
Pharynx

Slide 14.3
Mouth (Oral Cavity) Anatomy
Lips (labia), Cheeks
Hard palate – forms
the anterior roof
Soft palate – forms
the posterior roof
Uvula – fleshy
projection of the
soft palate

Slide 14.4
Mouth (Oral Cavity) Anatomy
Oral cavity – area
contained by the
teeth
Tongue – attached at
hyoid and styloid
processes of the
skull, and by the
lingual frenulum

Slide 14.5
Mouth (Oral Cavity) Anatomy
Tonsils
Palatine tonsils
Lingual tonsil
Figure 14.2a

Slide 14.6
Processes of the Mouth
Mastication (chewing) of food
Mix food w/ saliva
*Salivary Amylase – Enzyme digest
Starches (bread,potato,etc)
Tongue initiates swallowing
Sense of taste
Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Slide 14.7
Esophagus
Runs from pharynx to stomach through
the diaphragm
Conducts food by peristalsis
(slow rhythmic squeezing)
Passageway for food only
Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Slide 14.10
Stomach Anatomy
left side of the abdominal cavity
Food enters at the esophageal sphincter
Holds about 1 gallon of food (Full)
Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Slide 14.15a
Stomach Anatomy
Rugae – internal folds of the mucosa
External regions
Fundus
Pyloris
Lesser curvature
Greater curvature
Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Slide 14.16a
Stomach Anatomy
Layers of peritoneum attached to the stomach:
Lesser/Greater omentum – hangs like a curtain
over small/Lg. intestines - Contains fatinsulates, cushion, protect
Mesenteries: Binds abdomin. Organs together
and attaches them to back wall of body
Slide 14.16b
Stomach Anatomy
Layers of muscles
at different angles
allow food to be
churned and
PUMMELED!

Slide 14.17
Stomach Functions
Acts as a storage tank for food
Some food breakdown,
gastric glands = gastric juice
Chem.digest. Of protein begins
(pepsinogen/pepsin)
HCl (hydrocholoric Acid!)..
Acidic Environ. – Activates pepsinogen
& hostile to microorganisms

Slide 14.18
Stomach Functions
• The only absorption that occurs in the
stomach is of alcohol and aspirin
• Delivers chyme (processed food) to the
small intestine…”looks like heavy cream”
Propulsion in the Stomach
The pylorus sends out chyme to small
intestine (30 ml at a time)
The stomach empties in four to six
hours

Slide 14.56b
Small Intestine
*major digestive organ, only process
small amounts at a time.
*Site of nutrient absorption into the blood
Suspended from the posterior abdominal
wall by the mesentery
Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Slide 14.21
Subdivisions of the Small Intestine
Duodenum =1st
section off stomach
10 inches; Curves around pancreas
Bile & pancreatic ducts enter
Jejunum = 2nd section
8 ft long.
Ileum= 3rd section
ends at Lg intest. (12ft)
Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Slide 14.22
Chemical Digestion in the Small
Intestine
Enzymes are mixed with chyme
From: Gall Bladder (bile=lipid digest.)
Intestinal cells
*Pancreas
(lipid/protein enzymes)
Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Slide 14.23a
Digestion in the Small Intestine
Pancreatic enzymes play the major digestive
function (continued)
Responsible for fat digestion (lipase)
Digest nucleic acids (nucleases)
*Alkaline content neutralizes acidic
chyme
*Why is this important!?!

Slide 14.57b
Absorption in the Small Intestine
Water is absorbed along the length of
the small intestine-90% of H20 intake
absorbed in small intest.
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

Chemical Digestion in the Small
Intestine

Slide 14.23b
Small Intestine – digestion/absorption
Villi - Fingerlike
structures give the
sm. Intest.more
surface area
Microvilli – small
projections of
plasma membrane
on absorptive cells
Slide 14.24
Structures Involved in Absorption of
Nutrients
Absorptive cells
Blood capillaries

Slide 14.26
Large Intestine
Larger diameter, but
shorter length! (than
small intestines)
Slide 14.28
Functions of the Large Intestine
Absorption of water
Eliminates indigestible food from the
body as feces
Does not participate in digestion of food
Goblet cells produce mucus to act as a
lubricant
Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Slide 14.29
Rectum
• Last section of colon (large
intestines)
• eliminate feces
• undigested materials
– extracellular waste
» mainly cellulose
from plants
» roughage or fiber
• masses of bacteria
