islets produce insulin and glucagon Acini produce digestive enzymes Regions: Head, body, tail Secretions Pancreatic juice (exocrine) Trypsin Chymotrypsin Carboxypeptidase Pancreatic amylase Pancreatic lipases Enzymes that reduce DNA and ribonucleic acid Bicarbonate Ion Production Gastric hormones: Movement in small intestine: Mixing: Segmental contraction that occurs in small intestine Secretion: Lubricate, liquefy, digest Digestion: Mechanical and chemical Absorption: Movement from tract into circulation or lymph Elimination: Waste products removed from body Large Intestine: Extends from ileocecal junction to anus Consists of cecum, colon, rectum, anal canal Movements sluggish (18-24 hours) Large Intestine Cecum Colon Ascending, transverse, descending, sigmoid Rectum Blind sac, vermiform appendix attached Straight muscular tube Anal canal Internal anal sphincter (smooth muscle) External anal sphincter (skeletal muscle) Hemorrhoids: Vein enlargement or inflammation Secretions

cavity pressure caused by inspiration Reflexes in Colon and Rectum: Digestion, Absorption, Transport Digestion Breakdown of food molecules for absorption into circulation Mechanical: Breaks large food particles to small Chemical: Breaking of covalent bonds by digestive enzymes Absorption and transport Molecules are moved out of digestive tract and into circulation for distribution throughout body

paracrine chemicals Histamine Help local reflexes in ENS control digestive environments as pH levels Lipoproteins Types Chylomicrons VLDL LDL Enter lymph Transports cholesterol to cells HDL Transports cholesterol from cells to liver Water and Ions: Water Can move in either direction across wall of small intestine depending on osmotic gradients Ions Sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, phosphate are actively transported Effects of Aging Decrease in mucus layer, connective tissue, muscles and secretions Increased susceptibility to infections and toxic agents Ulcerations and cancers Chemical Events in Digestion: Carbohydrates 1. Shows carbohydrate digestion. 2. Note the small intestine’s role in conversion to monoand di-saccharides. Chemical Events in Digestion: Lipids 3. Lipid digestion is shown here. 4. Note the conversion to monoglycerides in the small intestine due to bile salts and pancreatic lipase. Chemical Events in Digestion: Proteins 5. Digestion of proteins. 6. Note stomach’s conversion to polypeptides. 7. Small intestine converts to short peptides and amino acids for intestinal absorption. Gastric Secretion 1. Thin, strongly acidic (pH: 1 to 3), almost colorless liquid. It is secreted by the glands in the lining of the stomach. 2. Essential constituents are the digestive enzymes pepsin and renin, hydrochloric acid, and mucus. 3. Certain cells of the stomach lining secrete intrinsic factor which is necessary for the absorption of vitamin B12. Secretion rates of Gastric juice Path followed by bile juice in liver and gall bladder Pancreatic Secretion Production of Pancreatic Secretion Pancreatic Secretion 1. Clear, alkaline secretion of the pancreas containing enzymes that aid in the digestion of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. 2. There are mainly two types of pancreatic secretions: - Bicarbonate Secretion, - Enzyme Secretion. Secretion of Pancreatic juice Chemistry of Digestion: Fats Figure 21-8: Fat digestion
