FUNCTIONS
Digests food :
Breaks food into small units .
Absorbs food
Eliminates waste

Digestion
starts teeth breaks off of food Also breaks food down @ chemical level
in mouth

Small intestine :
segmentation
During elimination :
Haustval movements
2-
Absorption (After digestion)
Duodenum
Jejenum
•
Nutrients / Vitamins / Minerals / salts / Water
H2O also reabsorbed
during elimination process
urinary system

3. Elimination ( After absorption )
what is left in the
alimentary canal
starts @ cecum
ends @ rectum
fecal matter broken down
Mixes fecal matter with MUCOUS
Absorbs H2O so that feces is soft to leave the
body .

pharynx
is NOT
Nasopharynx part of
digestive system
ESOPHAGUS
25cm long
from throat
,
through mediastinal
cavity of the chest (
diaphragm )
connects to the stomach
STOMACH
Bag that collects food
can expand / Stretch
limited absorption
SMALL intestine
Duodenum , Jejenum and Ileum
coiled in middle of abdominal
cavity
long because it's where absorption occurs
LARGE intestine
Cecum , colon and rectum
Reabsorbs some H2O and ions
forms + stores fecal matter
,ACCESSORY ORGANS :
Needed for
digestion and absorption .
Salivary GLANDS
In the oral
cavity
Produce saliva that contains food for chemical
enzyme ,
that starts to work in on
digestion

1.
Ingestion :
Placement of food in the oral
cavity .
alimentary canal
2. Propulsion :
Movement of food
through digestive tract .
( swallowing & peristalsis is haustval
,
movements )
3. Mechanical (
Digestion Physically: forces food into smaller pieces chewing & Churning & segmentation )
.
4- Chemical
Digestion : For absorption to take place .
( oral cavity & stomach & small intestine )
5- Absorption Nutrients from lumen blood vessels / ( small large intestine )
can move to
lymph nodes -1
:

6- Defecation :
Whatever is left in lumen must leave the
body .
( Rectum & anus )
,PERITONEUM

visceral and parietal
large membrane in abdominal cavity
lines the abdominal cavity

Layers
AS
large as skin
keeps organs in position
parietal LAYER
External
layer
In contact with abdominal Wall

Visceral Layer
Surrounds / in contact with an
organ
Internal layer
Between Layers
Space called the peritoneal cavity
filled with fluid ( acts like lubricant thus
Not
empty no
pain during peristalsis )

Lesser :
Connects stomach to liver

MUCOSA 1
Epithelium tissue
Innermost
layer
secretes mucous to allow food to
pass smoothly through lumen
Absorbs all products in duodenum and
jejenum
Protects infections
