rectum
Accessory organs - ANSWERsalivary glands, liver, gallbladder, pancreas
What do accessory glands do? - ANSWERaids in digestion of food
Mechanical digestion - ANSWERbreaks down food via chewing, peristalsis, churning
Chemical digestion - ANSWERbreaks down food via series of metabolic reactions w/ enzymes
Abdomen also contains - ANSWERspleen, urinary tract system (bladder, kidneys, ureters), uterus,
ovaries, aorta, illiac, renal, femoral arteries, abdominal cavity
Integumentary & musculoskeletal systems relationship to abdominal system - - ANSWERprotects &
supports, musculoskeletal assists w/ digestion, chewing, swallowing, defecation of byproducts
Respiratory & CV systems relationship to abdominal system - - ANSWERprovides oxygen needed for
digestive organs to function
Neurological system relationship to abdominal system - - ANSWERreleases acetylcholine - stimulates
secretion of digestive juices, increases peristalsis via parasympathetic response, release of
norepinephrine via sympathetic response --> decreases peristalsis & secretion of digestive juices
