THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM
Chapter 19
GASTROINTESTINAL (GI) TRACT
Tube that includes: mouth, Pharynx, Esophagus,
Stomach, Small intestine, Large intestine
 Accessory organs: teeth, tongue, salivary
glands, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas

FIGURE 19.1
OVERVIEW- OPERATIONS
 Ingestion:
eating
 Secretion: release of water, enzymes
& buffers
 Mixing
& propulsion: movement
along GI tract
 Digestion: mechanical and chemical
breakdown of foods
 Absorption: getting it into the body
 Defecation: dumping waste products
= defecation
WALL LAYERS- EVERYWHERE
4
layers
 Mucosa-
epithelium, connective layer, glands,
muscularis mucosae
 Submucosa-
connective tissue, blood vessels,
lymphatic vessels, enteric nervous system
 Muscularis-
circular layer, longitudinal
layer
In mouth, pharynx & upper esophagus –skeletal
muscle
 Also in external anal sphincter

 Serosa
or Visceral peritoneum
FIGURE 19.2
FIGURE 19.3A
FIGURE 19.3B
MOUTH
 Formed
by cheeks, hard & soft
palate & tongue
 Soft palate at back includes a “hangy
down” part = uvula

During swallowing uvula prevents
entry into nasal cavity
 Tongue

muscular accessory organ
maneuvers food for chewing
Adjusts shape for speech & swallowing
 Lingual
tonsils at base of tongue
SALIVARY GLANDS
 3 pairs of salivary glands
 Ducts empty into oral cavity
 Parotid inferior & anterior to ears
 Submandibular in floor of mouth, medial & inferior
mandible
 Sublingual
 Beneath tongue
submandibular
to
and superior to
 Saliva
contains 99.5% water, salivary
amylase, mucus and other solutes

Dissolves food & starts digestion of starches
FIGURE 19.4
TEETH
 Accessory
organs in bony sockets of
mandible & maxilla
 3 external regions:


Crown- above gums
Root- 1 or more parts embedded in socket
Neck – between crown and root near gum
line
layers of material
Enamel- covers crown
Dentin- majority of interior of tooth
Pulp cavity - nerve, blood vessel &
lymphatics
FIGURE 19.5
DIGESTION IN THE MOUTH
Mechanical
breakdown- chewing
Mixed with saliva by tongue
Salivary amylase chemically
breaks down polysaccharides
(starch)
maltose and larger fragments
Continues in the stomach until
acidified

Rounds
up food into a soft bolus
for swallowing
PHARYNX & ESOPHAGUS
 On
swallowing:
 Bolus of food  oropharynx
 Laryngopharynx esophagus

Muscular contractions in pharynx help
 Upper

Skeletal muscle –controls entry to
esophagus
 Lower

esophageal sphincter (UES)
esophageal sphincter (LES)
Smooth muscle- regulates entry to
stomach
FIGURE 19.6A,B
SWALLOWING
 Voluntary:
bolus forced into
oropharynx
 Triggers oropharyngeal stage
Involuntary & breathing interrupted
 Soft palate move up-close nasopharynx
 Epiglottis seals off larynx
 Bolus moves into esophagus through
UES

 Esophageal
stage peristalsis
moves it toward stomach
FIGURE 19.6C
STOMACH
 J-
shaped enlargement of tract
 Serves as mixing chamber and
holding reservoir
 Very elastic & muscular

Fundus- superior & to left of cardia
Body – large central portion
 Pylorus- lower part leading to pyloric
sphincter & duodenum
