Organ 1. Description/Functions Allows for sense of taste 1. Mastication of food Mouth Mixing food with saliva Ingestion Enzymes released into this part by accessory organ Produces bolus Initial site of the physical breakdown of food 2. Serves as a passageway for air and food Pharynx Peristalsis begins here Food is moved to the esophagus Also attached to the larynx 3. Epiglottis Directs food into the esophagus and out of the trachea 4. Passageway for food only – not air Esophagus Leads to stomach One of the organs that passé through the diaphragm Peristalsis occurs here 5. Cardioesophageal sphincter 6. Stomach Opens to allow food into the stomach Temporary storage tank for food (4-6 hours) Contains HCl Connected to the small intestine Ability to stretch Lesser and Greater omentum are attached here Contain rugae Physical breakdown of food through churning Enzymes released here Chyme production 7. Pyloric sphincter Opens to allow food into small intestine 8. Villi present Microvilli present Small Intestine Enzymes released into this part by accessory organ Enzymes produced here Plicae circulares found here Muscular tube beginning at pyloric sphincter Ends at the illeocecal valve Suspended from the abdominal wall by the mesentery Site of nutrient absorption into the blood The body’s major digestive organ Attached to the stomach via the duodenum Attaches to the large intestine at the end of the ileum 9. Ileocecal Sphincter Attaches to the large intestine at the end of the ileum 10. Site of absorption of water Large intestines No digestion occurs here Vitamin production occurs here Lining has haustra Large diameter tube Goblet cells produce mucus to lubricate the passage of feces Appendix hangs from here Crosses over the abdomen to pelvis Also known as the colon Final passage of waste products and indigestible material Small intestine attaches at the cecum 11. Rectum 12.Anal sphincter Waste products waiting to be released Ends with more than one sphincter Allows defecation List the organs of the alimentary canal in the correct order from ingestion to defecation. Then use the descriptors below to fill in the blanks. Organs: Anal sphincter, Cardioesophageal sphincter, Epiglottis, Esophagus, Ileocecal sphincter, Large intestine, Mouth, Pharynx, Pyloric sphincter, Rectum, Small Intestine, Stomach, Ability to stretch Allows defecation Allows for the sense of taste Also attached to larynx Also known as the colon Appendix hangs from here Attached to the stomach via the duodenum Attaches to the large intestine at the end of the ileum Chyme production Connected to the small intestine Contain rugae Contains HCl Crosses over from abdomen to pelvis Directs food into the esophagus and out of the trachea Ends at the illeocecal valve Ends with more than one sphincter, which are normally closed Enzymes produced here Enzymes released here Enzymes released into this part by accessory organ Enzymes released into this part by accessory organ Final passage of waste products and indigestible material Food is moved to the esophagus Goblet cells produce mucus to lubricate the passage of feces Ingestion Initial site of the physical breakdown of food Large diameter tube Leads to the stomach Lesser and Greater omentum are attached here Lining has haustra Mastication of food Microvilli present Mixing food with saliva Muscular tube beginning at the pyloric sphincter No digestion occurs here One of the organs that passes through the diaphragm Opens to allow food into the small intestine Opens to allow food into the stomach Passageway for food only – not air Peristalsis begins here Peristalsis occurs here Physical breakdown of food through churning Plicae circulares found here Produces bolus Serves as a passageway for air and food Site of absorption of water Site of nutrient absorption into the blood Small intestine attaches at the cecum Suspended from the abdominal wall by the mesentery Temporary storage tank for food (4-6 hours) The body’s major digestive organ Villi present Vitamin production occurs here Waste products waiting to be released here
