DigestionDigestion
Phases Include
1. Ingestion
2. Movement
3. Mechanical and Chemical Digestion
4. Absorption
5. Elimination
DigestionDigestion
Types
◦ Mechanical (physical)
 Chew
 Tear
 Grind
 Mash
 Mix
◦ Chemical
 Enzymatic reactions to improve digestion of
◦ Carbohydrates
◦ Proteins
◦ Lipids
Digestive System OrganizationDigestive System Organization
• Gastrointestinal (Gl) tract
–Tube within a tube
–Direct link/path between organs
–Structures
• Mouth
• Pharynx
• Esophagus
• Stomach
• Small intestine
• Large Intestine
• Rectum
4
MouthMouthTeeth mechanically
break down food
into small pieces.
Tongue mixes food
with saliva
(contains amylase,
which helps break
down starch).
Epiglottis is a flap-
like structure at
the back of the
throat that closes
over the trachea
preventing food
from entering it.
EsophagusEsophagus
Approximately 10” long
Functions include:
1.Secrete mucus
2.Moves food from the
throat to the stomach
using muscle movement
called peristalsis
If acid from the stomach
gets in here that’s
heartburn.
StomachStomachJ-shaped muscular bag that stores
the food you eat, breaks it down
into tiny pieces.
Mixes food with digestive juices
that contain enzymes to break
down proteins and lipids.
Acid in the stomach kills bacteria.
Food found in the stomach is
called chyme.
7
Small IntestineSmall Intestine
Small intestines are roughly 7
meters long
Lining of intestine walls has
finger-like projections called villi,
to increase surface area.
The villi are covered in microvilli
which further increases surface
area for absorption.
8
05/14/15 9
Small IntestineSmall IntestineNutrients from the food pass
into the bloodstream through
the small intestine walls.
Absorbs:
◦ 80% ingested water
◦ Vitamins
◦ Minerals
◦ Carbohydrates
◦ Proteins
◦ Lipids
• Secretes digestive enzymes
10
Large IntestineLarge Intestine
About 5 feet long
Accepts what small
intestines don’t absorb
Rectum (short term storage
which holds feces before it is
expelled).
Large IntestineLarge IntestineFunctions
◦ Bacterial digestion
 Ferment carbohydrates
 Protein breakdown
– Absorbs more water
– Concentrate wastes
Accessory OrgansAccessory Organs
Not part of the
path of food, but
play a critical role.
Include: Liver, gall
bladder, and
pancreas
LiverLiver
Directly affects digestion by
producing bile
◦ Bile helps digest fat
• filters out toxins and waste
including drugs and alcohol
14
Gall BladderGall Bladder
Stores bile from
the liver, releases
it into the small
intestine.
Fatty diets can
cause gallstones
PancreasPancreas
Produces digestive
enzymes to digest
fats, carbohydrates
and proteins
Regulates blood
sugar by producing
insulin
Fun FactsFun Facts
• HOW LONG ARE YOUR INTESTINES? At least 25 feet
in an adult. Be glad you're not a full-grown horse -- their
coiled-up intestines are 89 feet long!
• Food drying up and hanging out in the large intestine
can last 18 hours to 2 days!
• In your lifetime, your digestive system may handle
about 50 tons!!

Digestion ppt by 10 a manjot singh

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Presentation on
  2. A good way to describe peristalsis is an ocean wave moving through the muscle. These diagrams don’t separate the esophagus from the mouth functions, you might want to talk about what happens in the mouth too.
  3. The stomach takes around 4 hours to do it’s job on the food, depending on what kinds of food are digested.
  4. Depending on the maturity of the group, you can talk about the feces leaving via the anus. Mention the appendix at the bottom of the ascending colon and that it might have been used long ago but is not today Mention the portions of the large intestine, ascending, transverse, descending, sigmoid, and rectum (last one if the audience is mature enough)
  5. Livers can regenerate missing pieces if necessary. Is one of the largest organs in the body.
  6. Explain to students that removing the stones typically means removing the gallbladder, but that the body eventually adjusts to not having the bile stored.
  7. Explain the difference between the two types of diabetes. In type 1, the pancreas fails to produce enough insulin. In type 2, the body stops responding properly to the insulin it creates.
