1 Chapter 9 Digestive System Copyright 2016 McGraw-Hill Education. Permission required for reproduction or display. 1

2 Points to ponder What are the digestive system structures and their functions? Where does carbohydrate, protein, and fat digestion and absorption occur? What are proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, minerals and vitamins needed for? What is an essential vs. a nonessential nutrient? What are the three accessory organs of digestion? What is obesity and why is it a problem? What is LDL and HDL? What are the components of a healthy diet? Name and explain 4 eating disorders. 2

3 9.1 Overview of Digestion What are the main steps in the digestive process? Ingestion Digestion Movement Absorption Elimination 3

Accessory organs Salivary glands secrete saliva which contains digestive enzyme for carbohydrates Digestive tract organs Mouth teeth chew food; tongue tastes and pushes food for chewing and swallowing Pharynx passageway where food is swallowed Esophagus passageway where peristalsis pushes food to stomach Liver major metabolic organ ; processes and stores nutrients; produces bile for emulsification of fats Gallbladder stores bile from liver; sends it to the small intestine Pancreas produces pancreatic juice ; contains digestive enzymes, and sends it to the small intestine; produces insulin and secretes it into the blood after eating Stomach secretes acid and digestive enzyme for protein; churns, mixing food with secretions, and sends chyme to small intestine Small intestine mixes chyme with digestive enzymes for final breakdown; absorbs nutrient molecules into body; secretes digestive hormones into blood Large intestine absorbs water and salt to form feces Figure 9.1 Organs of the GI tract and accessory structures of digestion. Rectum stores and regulates elimination of feces Anus 4
