Non-Ruminant Digestion
2
What are Non-Ruminants?
Animals with digestive systems that have a simple stomach structure, also called a monogastric system Most animals are classified as omnivores or carnivores
3
The Non-Ruminant System
Mouth Esophagus Stomach Small Intestine Large Intestine Anus
4
The Non-Ruminant System
Mouth Collects and chews feed and vegetation Teeth Carnivores Sharp teeth for tearing and ripping Omnivores Sharp teeth and flat molars for tearing and grinding
5
The Non-Ruminant System
Salivary Glands Secretes digestive enzymes Provide lubrication for swallowing
6
The Non-Ruminant System
Esophagus Connects mouth to stomach Unidirectional Forceful regurgitation may occur in some animals when sick
7
The Non-Ruminant System
Stomach Glandular pouch that mixes and churns feed Secretes gastric juices and enzymes to aid in food particle breakdown
8
The Non-Ruminant System
Pancreas Produces and secretes enzymes Aids in the digestion of carbohydrates and fats Liver Lobed reddish brown organ Produces bile (greenish in color) Aids in the digestion of fats Gall Bladder Storage sac for bile from liver Secretes bile into small intestine
9
The Non-Ruminant System
Small Intestine Secretes intestinal juices Pale watery substance from the intestinal wall Protein digestion Buffers hydrochloric acid from the stomach Digests and absorbs nutrients
10
The Non-Ruminant System
Small Intestine Sections Duodenum Secretion of intestinal juices, pancreatic enzymes and bile to further digest food Jejunum Digestion Absorption of nutrients Ileum
11
The Non-Ruminant System
Cecum Non-functioning blind pouch found in-between the small intestine and large intestine Large Intestine Absorbs water and adds mucus to undigested feed
12
The Non-Ruminant System
Rectum Internal sphincter which controls excretion Anus External sphincter which controls excretion
13
The Non-Ruminant System
Large Intestine Small Intestine Anus Pancreas Duodenum Jejunum Ileum Stomach Salivary Glands Mouth Rectum Gall Bladder Esophagus Cecum Liver
14
Lobed reddish brown organ, produces bile (greenish in color), aids in the digestion of fats
15
Secretes intestinal juices digests and absorbs nutrients
16
Secretes digestive enzymes provides lubrication for swallowing
17
Secretion of intestinal juices, pancreatic enzymes and bile to further digest food, 1st section of small intestine
18
Connects mouth to stomach unidirectional
19
Glandular pouch that mixes and churns feed, secretes gastric juices and enzymes
20
Collects and chews feed and vegetation
21
Produces and secretes enzymes, aids in the digestion of carbohydrates and fats
22
Who has sharp teeth for tearing and ripping?
23
Absorbs water and adds mucus to undigested feed
24
Storage sac for bile from liver, secretes bile into small intestine
25
Who has sharp teeth and flat molars for tearing and grinding?
26
Internal sphincter which controls excretion
27
Absorption of nutrients 3rd section of small intestine
28
Non-functioning blind pouch found in-between the small intestine and large intestine
29
External sphincter which controls excretion
30
Digestion and absorption of nutrients 2nd section of small intestine
