Small Intestine

• Site of greatest amount of digestion and absorption

• Divisions – Duodenum (“twelve finger widths”)– Jejunum (“empty”)– Ileum (“twisted”)

Small Intestine Secretions

• Mucus – Protects against digestive enzymes and stomach

acids

• Digestive enzymes– Disaccharidases: Break down disaccharides to

monosaccharides– Peptidases: Hydrolyze peptide bonds– Nucleases: Break down nucleic acids

Duodenum and Pancreas

Duodenum• 25cm in adult• Accessory glands empty secretions into duodenum

Histology of Small Intestine

• Circular folds, villi and microvilli increase surface area• Epithelial cells produced by intestinal glands

Liver

• 4 Lobes• Ducts

– Cystic duct joins with common hepatic duct to form common bile duct

– Common bile duct joins pancreatic duct

24-7

Functions of the Liver• Bile production

– Salts emulsify fats, neutralizes stomach acid– Stored in gall bladder– Gallstones can form as precipitate of cholesterol

• Storage– Glycogen, fat, vitamins, copper and iron

• Nutrient interconversion• Detoxification

– Removal of ammonia and conversion to urea (eliminated by kidneys in urine)

• Phagocytosis– Removal of worn-out and dying red and white blood cells, some

bacteria

• Synthesis– Blood proteins

Pancreas• Anatomy

– Endocrine• Insulin

– Exocrine• Pancreatic juice

– Digestive enzymes

– Released in inactive form

– Become active in duodenum

– Digest protein, fats, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids

Large Intestine

• Extends from ileocecal valve to anus

• Consists of cecum, colon, rectum, anal canal

• Movements sluggish (18-24 hours)

24-11

Movement in Large Intestine

• Mass movements– Common after meals

• Defecation reflex– Distension of the rectal wall by

feces

• Defecation– Usually accompanied by voluntary

movements to expel feces through abdominal cavity pressure caused by inspiration (breathing in) and contraction of abdominal wall muscles

Rectal valve

Anal canal

Veins

Internal anal sphincter

External anal sphincter

Anus

Rectum

Points to RememberPoints to Remember• Stomach

– Mixes food– Protein digestion– Limited absorption (aspirin)

• Small intestine– Receives secretions of liver and pancreas– Chemical and mechanical digestion– Transports undigested material

• Large intestine– Absorb water– Form, store and expel feces
