Digestive system
10
General structure

• Gastrointestinal tract (tube)
• Mucosa inner layer (epithelial)
• Submucosa connective
• Muscularis 2 layers of muscle
• Serosa outer layer (connective)
• Plexues nerves located in the submucosa

11
Digestive organs

• Mouth
• Pharynx
• Esophagus
• Stomach
• Small intestine (duodenum, jejunum, ileum)
• Large intestine (cecum, ascending colon,
  transverse colon, descending colon, sigmoid,
  rectum, anus)

12
Digestive organs

• Accessory organs
• Liver
• Gallbladder
• Pancreas

13
Digestion

• Mouth
• Teeth
• Gizzard (in birds to help grind food)
• Salivary glands
• Secrete saliva
• Amylase (enzyme to breakdown starch)

14
Mouth
15
Salivary glands
16
Digestion

• Chew or mastication
• Tongue pushes food
• Pharynx
• Epiglottis closes
• Esophagus

17
Pharynx
18
Esophagus

• Esophagus
• Muscular tube
• Connects pharynx to stomach
• Peristalsis
• Rhythmic movement of muscle contractions
• Moves food along
• Esophageal sphincter
• End of esophagus keeps food in stomach

19
Stomach

• Mucosa lining (epithelial)
• Parietal cells
• Secrete H Cl ions
• Chief cells
• Secrete pepsinogen
• Pepsinogen is converted to pepsin
• Digests proteins

20
Stomach

• Gastric juices
• HCl, pepsinogen mucus pH2
• Chyme
• Mixture of partially digested food

21
Stomach
22
Stomach
23
Small intestine

• Chyme
• Leaves stomach via pyloric sphincter
• Duodenum
• Digestive enzymes from pancreas
• Bile from liver gallbladder
• Most digestion occurs in the duodenum jejunum

24
Intestines
25
Small intestine
26
Small intestines

• Villi along intestine epithelium
• Microvilli
• brush border
• Aids in absorption
• Secretes enzymes
• Break disaccharides (sucrose, lactose)

27
Small intestine
28
Accessory organs
29
Accessory organs

• Pancreas
• Secretes fluids via pancreatic duct
• Exocrine system
• Trypsin chymotrypsin (proteases)
• Amylase (starch)
• Lipase (fats)
• Bicarbonate (neutralizes HCl)
• Endocrine (insulin and glucagon)

30
Accessory organs

• Liver
• Secretes bile
• Contains bile pigments bile salts
• Bile pigments are waste from break down of RBC
• Eliminated

31
Accessory organs

• Bile salts
• Emulsify the fats
• Bile made in liver
• Stored in gall bladder
• Released when eat fatty meal
• Gallstones can block release

32
Small intestines

• Monosaccharides, aa are transported to the blood
  capillaries
• Hepatic portal vein
• Liver
• Heart
• Transported to body

33
Small intestines

• Fatty acids monoglycerides
• Villi
• Triglycerides
• Chylomicrons (triglyceride protein coat)
• Lymph system

Large intestines

• Absorbs water
• Absorbs vitamin K
• Concentrates wastes
• E. coli
• Feces
• Cloaca
• Combines feces urine wastes in some animals

• Heart disease, diabetes, stroke
• Anorexia, Bulimia

41
Essential nutrients

• Essential aa

• Vitamins
• A, B-complex, C, D, E, K
• Scurvy, rickets, pernicious anemia, bleeding
