_____________ - Break down food into the nutrients the body can absorb._____________- Take out nutrients out of the food we eat and deliver it to the cells in our body.____________ solid wastes that is not needed by the body
DigestionTwo Types
1. ________________-physically breaking down food.Examples __________, ___________, ________, Mash, Mix
2. ______________- using catabolic reactions and enzymes to break down food.
OrganizationAnd Pathway
1. Gastrointestinal (Gl) tract –Tube within a tube–Direct link/path between organs–Major Organs
1. Mouth- Where digestion beginsTeeth- ______________________DigestionSalivary glands- _________________ Digestion of compounds such as starch.
a. Voluntary stage- Push food to back of _____________b. ___________________ stage- Raise Palatec. Esophageal stage- Contract pharyngeal muscles, open esophagus, start __________________
2. Esophagus- a. Secretes ____________b. Transports food to the _________________.
________________- Contractions of smooth muscles that push food down the digestive track
3. Stomach Function-1. Mixes Food- _____________ Digestion2. Reservoir- __________ food3. Starts chemical digestion of ___________, ___________, ___________.4. Destroys bacteria5. Absorbs
Food will leave the stomach as a soupy mixture called ___________________.4. Small Function-
Peristalsis
VeryAcidic!
Intestines Major site of _____________ digestion and ______________.
_____________- Increase the surface area of the small intestines for more absorption.Small Intestines
Accessory Organs
_____________- Creates bile that is used to break down fats.______________- Stores bile and releases it into the small intestines______________-Creates pancreatic juices that __________ the chyme
5. Large Intestines
6. Rectum
Function- To reabsorb ___________from digested wastes to make solid wastes.Chyme is __________ to form feces
Feces composition–______________–Inorganic salts–Epithelial cells–_______________–_______________ of digestion
Defecation–Peristalsis pushes feces into _______________–Rectal walls stretch until full.
Digestive Disorders
1. ____________________- Inflammation of the intestines.2. ____________________- Slow movement digestion causing a build up of bacteria.3. ____________________- watery feces causing dehydration.4. ____________________- inability to break down the amino acid phenylalanine.
