Essential Question(s):
No EQ   
32.2 Digestive System
2.1 Atoms, Ions, and Molecules

4. KEY CONCEPT The digestive system breaks down food into simpler molecules.

5. In 1822, Alexis St. Martin was shot in the stomach and treated by William Beaumont, an army surgeon
The bullet had left a small hole in his stomach
Beaumont persuaded St. Martin to let him observe the digestive process by tying foods to string, putting them into the stomach, and observing how the food was digested

6. The digestive system is a collection of organs that breaks down food into energy that can be used in cells
mouth
esophagus
liver
gallbladder
large intestine
small intestine
rectum/anus

8. After digestion is complete, nutrients are absorbed and transported to all cells.
Undigested materials are eliminated as liquid and solid wastes (urine/feces)

9. Digestion of carbohydrates begins in the mouth.
Digestion of proteins occurs in the stomach.
Digestion of fats and sugars occur in the small intestine.

10. Teeth: Mechanical digestion, shred and grind food
Mouth
Teeth: Mechanical digestion, shred and grind food
Saliva: chemical digestion
Enzyme: amylase (Am-uh-Lays)
Breaks down starch into sugars
Tongue: Keeps food positioned between teeth
Digestion starts in the mouth!!!!
stomach

11. Tube that connects mouth to the stomach
Esophagus
Tube that connects mouth to the stomach
Peristalsis (pear-ih-stawl-sis) moves food through the organs
esophagus
muscles contract
muscles relax
food
stomach

12. Stomach
Muscular sac
Holds up to 2 quarts of food
Continues digestion
Proteins are digested in the stomach
Chyme: semi-liquid mixture of food
2-6 hours to digest food

13. Pancreas, Liver, and Gall bladder
Aid in digestion
Pancreas: helps digest fat, protein, and starches
Liver: Produces bile which helps digest fats
Gallbladder: stores bile

14. Small Intestines
Most digestion takes place in the small intestines
Digests:
Proteins
Fats
Sugars

15. Large Intestine, Rectum, Anus
Large Intestine: helps to maintain the body’s fluid balance
Absorbs water and salt
Undigested material forms the solid feces.
stored in rectum
eliminated through anus

16. Sponge
1. What is the main function of the digestive system? 2. Describe how the mouth uses both mechanical and chemical digestion. 3. What three organs aide the small intestine with digestion? 4. If you ate a meal of spaghetti and meatballs, where would digestion of the pasta begin? The meat?

17. What is the main function of the digestive system?
To break down food into smaller molecules for the body to absorb and use for energy.
Describe how the mouth uses both mechanical and chemical digestion.
Mechanical: teeth chew food
Chemical: enzymes in saliva break down starches
What three organs aide the small intestine with digestion?
Gallbladder, liver, and pancreas
If you ate a meal of spaghetti and meatballs, where would digestion of the pasta begin? The meat?
Spaghetti: in mouth- starches
Meatballs: in stomach- proteins
