Processing
Crushing / Shearing
makes material
easier to move
through the tract
Digestion
Chemical breakdown
of food into small
organic compounds
for absorption
Secretion
Release of water acids,
buffers, enzymes &
salts by epithelium of
GI tract and glandular
organs
Absorption
Movement of organic
substrates,
electrolytes, vitamins
& water across
digestive epithelium
Excretion
Removal of waste
products from body

Movement of Digestive
Materials
By muscular layers of digestive tract
Consist of visceral smooth muscle
Along digestive tract:
Has rhythmic cycles of activities (PERISTALSIS)
Consists
Peristalsis
Mouth
Teeth mechanically break
swallowing
Mechanical processing
Through actions of teeth,
Lubrication
Mixing with mucus and
Limited digestion
Of carbohydrates and lipids
Esophagus
Functions include:
1.Secrete mucus
2.Moves food from the throat
Stomach
Mixes food with digestive juices
Food found in the stomach is called
chyme.
Retropulsion for mixing
Pyloric pump for emptying
12
of proteins by pepsin
amylase)
Lipids (by lingual lipase)
Stomach contents
Small Intestine
90% of absorption occurs in the small
intestine
Small Intestine
Intestinal Movements
Chyme arrives in duodenum
Weak peristaltic contractions move it
Peristalsis

Small Intestine
Nutrients from the food pass
Absorbs:
80% ingested water
Vitamins
Minerals
Carbohydrates
Proteins
Lipids
Secretes digestive enzymes

Accessory Organs
Not part of the path
bladder, and
pancreas
Pancreas
Produces digestive
enzymes to digest fats,
carbohydrates and
proteins
Functions of the Pancreas
1. Endocrine cells of the
pancreatic islets:
Secrete insulin and
glucagon into
bloodstream
2. Exocrine cells:
Acinar cells and
epithelial cells of
duct system
secrete pancreatic
juice
Pancreas
Pancreatic Enzymes
Pancreatic alphaamylase
A carbohydrase
Breaks down starches
Similar to salivary amylase
Pancreatic lipase
Breaks down complex lipids
Releases products (e.g., fatty
acids) that are easily
absorbed
Pancreatic Enzymes
Proteolytic enzymes
Tripsin, chemotripsin,
carboxipeptides
Break certain proteins apart
Proteases break large
protein complexes
Peptidases break small
peptides into amino acids
70% of all pancreatic enzyme
production
Secreted as inactive
proenzymes
Activated after reaching
small intestine
Liver Function
Liver Function .
(cont.)
The liver is a complex, indispensable, multipurpose organ. You
would die within 24 hours if it stopped working. The liver has a
major role in dealing with the nutrient products of food
digestion.
The gallbladder, to form the common bile duct, which drains
into the duodenum.
About 60% of the liver is made up of liver cells (hepatocytes).
The liver receives its blood supply via the hepatic
artery (30%) and the hepatic portal vein (70%), which
transports nutrients from the intestine.

(emulsification)
Increases surface area exposed to enzymatic attack
Creates tiny emulsion droplets coated with bile salts

Absorption of

Large Intestine
Functions
Bacterial digestion
(Ferment
carbohydrates)
Absorbs more water
Concentrate wastes
eat
Movement from cecum to transverse
colon is very slow, allowing hours for
water absorption
Segmentation movements
(haustration movement) mix contents
of adjacent haustra
