The Digestive System

Page 3: Unit 3: Animal Anatomy & Physiology The Digestive System

Digestive System• responsible for 4 major functions:

1. ingestion• intake of nutrients (eating)

2. digestion• the breakdown of food into small soluble molecules

a) physical digestion: (ex.) chewing– mechanical digestion that cuts food into small pieces– smaller pieces increase surface area for enzymes to work on

Page 4: Unit 3: Animal Anatomy & Physiology The Digestive System

Digestive System

4 major functions (continued):

b) chemical digestion: ex. digestive secretions (saliva)

• enzymes in digestive juices chemically breakdown food molecules into their monomers (soluble)

Digestive System

4 major functions (continued):3. absorption

• the uptake of nutrient molecules, first into the cells of the small intestine

• then into the blood stream

4. Egestion: • removal of solid undigested material (feces)

from anus eating cellulose (fiber) helps

** Excretion (part of the excretory system)• removal of liquid soluble waste (urine) from

the bladder via urethra

digestive tract (alimentary canal) really just a very long tube (~ 9 m long)takes food ~ 24 - 33 hours to go through digestive tract

b) saliva made by 3 pairs of salivary glandssecrete saliva into oral cavity

contains:1.water:

2.mucus:

3.salivary amylase:

lubricates food (makes it slippery)

help to dissolve food

enzyme which digests starch

i.e. into mono & disaccharides

Components of the Digestive SystemOrgan Comments Function

c) tongue very strong musclecontains large numbers of taste budsbolus:

2. physical digestion: chewing & mixing food with saliva

1.sensory: taste & temperature control

3. swallowing: a. pushes bolus up &

to the back of the throat

nerve endings

.

ball of chewed food

b.causes epiglottis to block windpipe

4. speech

Page 18: Unit 3: Animal Anatomy & Physiology The Digestive System

Components of the Digestive System

Tongue:• Different parts of the

tongue are able to taste one of four basic tastes.

sour

bitter

salty

sweet

Organ Comments Functiond) epiglottis

2) pharynx

flap of tissue at the base of the tongue above the trachea

back of the throat

prevents food from going into lungs (down trachea) to avoid choking

.

common passageway for food & air

Page 20: Unit 3: Animal Anatomy & Physiology The Digestive System

Components of the Digestive SystemOrgan Comments Function

3) esophagus narrow tube about 24 cm long connecting pharynx to stomachcontains 2 muscle layers which relax and contract rhythmically for peristalsis

.

1. leads food into stomach

2. ensures that food (bolus) is pushed into stomach (mucus glands help lubricate the bolus)wave-like contractions

Page 21: Unit 3: Animal Anatomy & Physiology The Digestive System

Esophagus (24 cm long, carries food)

• Lined with circular and longitudinal muscle• Lower end of esophagus is thickened just

before stomach (sphincter) (ie: heartburn)• Regurgitation – movement of food from the

stomach up the esophagus and out the mouth

Stomach

Page 25: Unit 3: Animal Anatomy & Physiology The Digestive System

Stomach

• Glands:– Located in lining of stomach – Produce gastric juices which contain:

• (i) HCl – Chemical breakdown of fibrous tissue Kills bacteria

• (ii) Pepsin – Enzyme which breaks down proteins

• (iii) Mucus –Thick layer which protects stomach wall from acid and pepsin

Page 26: Unit 3: Animal Anatomy & Physiology The Digestive System

Sphincters:

Small ring like muscles located at either end of the stomach• (i) Cardiac Sphincter – • Controls entry of food into stomach from esophagus• Closed during digestion to avoid re-entry into esophagus

(heart burn)• (ii) Pyloric Sphincter – • Controls entry of chyme (partially digested food & gastric

juices) into the small intestine

Before food enters the small intestine:

• It must pass through the PYLORIC SPHINCTER which is a valve that contracts and relaxes to control the flow of food leaving the stomach and going to the small intestine.

Salivary Glands

• Parotid Gland (below/ in front of ears, largest)

• Sublingual Gland (floor of mouth, smallest)

• Submandibular Gland (below and behind sublingual)

Page 38: Unit 3: Animal Anatomy & Physiology The Digestive System

Ducts and Saliva

• Ducts – tubular canals for carrying glandular secretions from one part of the body to another.

• Saliva – Moisten and lubricate food– First step in chemical digestion
