Inside the Stomach
10
The Stomach
11
- stores food (muscle relaxes)
Stomach muscular organ - stores food (muscle relaxes) - mechanical digestion muscular contractions churn food
12
Stomach - chemical digestion gastric juice pepsin and HCl enzyme that chemically digests protein to dipeptides
14
Levels of Organization in the Human Body
15
Tissues in the stomach Muscle Produce pepsin Produce HCl Produce mucus
= what life process? Muscle Produce pepsin synthesis Produce HCl Produce mucus Produce gastrin (hormone that stimulates production of HCl)
16
Mucous cells: secrete a basic mucus that protects the epithelium against shear stress and acid
Parietal cells: secrete HCl
17
Chief cells: secrete pepsin, an enzyme that breaks down proteins
G cells: secrete the hormone gastrin
18
HCl in Stomach Denatures proteins Activates pepsin
Kills bacteria; other microorganisms Dissolves minerals
19
How does the denaturation of proteins by HCL affect chemical digestion?
Denaturation of proteins by HCL exposes more surface area to enzymes, increasing the efficiency of digestion
20
- polypeptides (several amino acids in a chain)
Hydrochloric acid provides an optimum pH for the activity of gastric protease (pepsin). Pepsin breaks down proteins to: - polypeptides (several amino acids in a chain) - dipeptides (2 amino acids attached).
21
Stomach Mucosa Tissue that produces mucus
Mucus - a viscous fluid consisting of glycoproteins Mucus protects stomach lining from acidity of HCl
22
Acid reflux - acid from stomach backs up into esophagus
What is heartburn? Acid reflux - acid from stomach backs up into esophagus
23
Cow stomach research Holy Cow!
24
2. unchewed food goes to RUMEN and RETICULUM
HOW COW DIGESTS: 1. cow swallows food 2. unchewed food goes to RUMEN and RETICULUM 3. cow stores food in RUMEN and RETICULUM 4. cow is now tired and rests 5. when she is hungry gain she will cough up some unchewed food (called cud!) 6. it will chew it completely and swallow it again 7.the cud goes to OMASUM and ABOMASUM 8.in OMASUM and ABOMASUM food is fully digested
27
A Gastric Ulcer
28
Ulcer open sore in the mucus membrane resulting from localized breakdown of tissues
29
Bacteria cause ulcers
30
2) The chemical digestion of which nutrient begins in the stomach?
1) The _____ glands secrete _____ which contains the enzyme ____________ which digests starch into _______________. salivary saliva Salivary amylase dissacharides 2) The chemical digestion of which nutrient begins in the stomach? protein
31
Small intestine
33
Partially digested, liquefied food enters the small intestine.
The small intestine is a long, convoluted tube in which the major portion of food is digested. Partially digested, liquefied food enters the small intestine.
34
What are accessories?
35
liver 1 gall bladder 2 pancreas 3
36
Bile is produced in the liver and stored in the gall bladder.
Accessory organs, the gall bladder and pancreas, empty their secretions into the small intestine. Bile is produced in the liver and stored in the gall bladder.
37
Bile is not an enzyme, but a chemical that emulsifies (physically break apart) fat
38
How does this affect the chemical digestion of fat?
bile fat fat
39
emulsification increases the surface area of fats for more efficient chemical digestion
40
Chemical Digestion The pancreas secretes several enzymes including intestinal protease, lipase, and amylase. Intestinal glands that line the intestinal wall secrete protease, lipase, and maltase.
41
Twenty amino acids are necessary for body maintenance and repair.
Amino acids are temporarily stored and distributed to the cells as needed for protein synthesis. Twenty amino acids are necessary for body maintenance and repair.
42
* The chemical digestion of proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates is completed in the small intestine.
43
What are the end products of digestion?
Nutrient End - Products Proteins Lipids Carbohydrates Amino acids Fatty acids and glycerol Simple Sugars
44
How do the end products of digestion get to our cells?
45
Absorption The passage of the end products of digestion into the blood
The process by which usable materials are taken into an organism The passage of materials across a cell membrane into the cell
46
esophagus liver Gall bladder Small intestine rectum
47
villi
48
microvilli
50
Lacteal (small lymph vessel)
Capillary (tiny blood vessel) microvilli
51
Capillaries and small lymphatic vessels, lacteals, extend into the villi.
52
Why does the small intestine have this structure?
3 2 1{ Why does the small intestine have this structure? (folds, villi, microvilli) 1 –intestinal fold 2 – villi 3 – microvilli
53
Absorption In the Small Intestine
The lining of the small intestine contains numerous villi (small fingerlike projections) which increase the surface area of the small intestine to improve absorption.
54
Surface area of the small intestine
55
overview till stomach http://www. youtube. com/watch
Villi - freezes towards the end villi
57
Fatty acids and glycerol are absorbed through the villi into the lacteals and are transported in the lymph. Monosaccharides and amino acids are absorbed through the villi and enter the capillaries to be transported to the liver where they are temporarily stored.
58
Functions of the Liver Absorbs and stores nutrients Produces bile
Detoxifies poisons in the blood Removes waste products, old RBCs from blood
59
The breakdown of glycogen releases glucose for transport.
Glucose is temporarily stored as the polysaccharide glycogen (animal sugar) in the liver. The breakdown of glycogen releases glucose for transport.
60
What are two major functions of the small intestine?
Digestion and Absorption
62
2) What are the three enzymes secreted by the pancreas?
1) The gall bladder releases _____ and the pancreas secretes _____ into the small intestine for chemical digestion. bile enzymes 2) What are the three enzymes secreted by the pancreas? Protease, lipase, amylase
63
Chyme is acidic. Why doesn’t chyme cause ulcers in the small intestine?
The pancreas produces sodium bicarbonate which neutralizes the acidity of chyme in the small intestine. It also creates a basic pH for the optimal activity of pancreatic and intestinal enzymes
64
Diarrhea http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ln_crYIBw00&feature=related
66
In one day your body makes:
1 LITER OF SALIVA 1-3 LITERS OF GASTRIC JUICE 1-2 LITERS OF PANCREATIC JUICE 2-3 LITERS OF INTESTINAL JUICE
67
Functions of the Large Intestine
Reabsorbs water from food mass Absorbs vitamins Contains bacteria which: make vitamin K digest organic substances compete with dangerous bacteria in food Elimination (egestion) of undigested waste
68
What happens when water is not reabsorbed by the large intestine?
70
Diarrhea intestinal disturbance
increased peristaltic activity of the large intestine decreased water absorption results in increased, multiple, watery feces; may result severe dehydration especially in infants.
71
What happens when too much water reabsorbed by the large intestine?
72
Constipation
73
Constipation sluggish peristaltic movement
too much water is reabsorbed the solid waste hardens large intestine is emptied with difficulty
74
5. Large Intestine Undigested food and water enter the large intestine where excess water is absorbed as needed. During egestion, strong peristaltic action forces feces out through the anus.
75
Feces Bacteria (50%) Cellulose Bile Mucous Dead cells
76
What is this? The appendix
77
Function of Appendix? “second stomach” for digestion of plant matter
houses a “backup supply” of good intestinal bacteria
78
What is this?
79
Appendicitis is an inflammation of the appendix due to infection.
81
Other Malfunctions of the Digestive System
Ulcers are open sores in the interior wall of the digestive tract, most often in the stomach or the upper portion of the small intestine. The acid in gastric juice irritates the sores and causes pain or discomfort.

These are called essential amino acids.
Although humans can convert one amino acid into another, eight cannot be synthesized and must be consumed as part of the diet. These are called essential amino acids.
