1. The Digestive System Marki, Anastasia, and Pritch

2. What’s The Point? Breaks down food in order to gain three essential things: chemical energy, organic molecules and essential nutrients

3. Chemical Energy Energy that is in the form of molecular bonds created during photosynthesis Chemical energy in the form of starches is used in cellular respiration to create ATP

4. Organic Molecules Organic molecules are used as building blocks within the organism

5. Essential Nutrients Four different types: amino acids fatty acids vitamins minerals

6. Amino Acids Eight essential to humans and a ninth one Histidine is needed by babies Complete proteins such as meat have all eight Incomplete proteins such as corn or beans do not have all eight unless eaten together

7. Beans and other legumes Corn (maize) and other grains Lysine Essential amino acids for adults Tryptophan Isoleucine Leucine Phenylalanine Threonine Valine Methionine

8. Fatty Acids Few that animals cannot synthesize themselves: linoleic acid is necessary to make membrane phospholipids

9. Vitamins Organic molecules that perform various functions but cannot be synthesized within the body Vitamin B2 is FAD+ Water soluble are B and C, work as coenzymes Fat soluble A, K, and D work as building blocks

11. Minerals Inorganic elements Calcium and phosphorus used in building bones Iodine in hormones

13. Nourishment Under-nourishment- body does not have enough chemical energy Mal-nourishment- body does not have enough of a specific essential nutrient

14. Steps of Eating IngestionDigestion Absorption Elimination Undigested material Chemical digestion (enzymatic hydrolysis) Nutrient molecules enter body cells Small molecules Mechanical digestion Food Pieces of food 1 2 3 4

15. Types of Digestive Compartments Intracellular digestion versus extracellular digestion

16. Intracellular Digestion By phago or pino cytosis, food is ingested by cells and made into food vacuoles where they can be digested Occurs in sponges (filter feeders) and single-celled organisms

17. Extracellular Digestion Gastrovascular cavity: only a mouth Alimentary canal: mouth and anus

23. Whole Body

24. Ingestion Mouth Salivary glands that secrete saliva Amylase hydrolyzes starch and glycogen Muchin lubricates mouth and food to avoid abrasion Buffer neutralizes acids Tongue regulates what goes into mouth by taste Bolus, a ball of food, is created and shoved back to the pharynx Pharynx: (fork between trachea and esophagus) epiglottis covers glottis opening to trachea

25. Pharynx

26. Ingestion Esophagus: muscles lining it Peristalsis- wave-like contractions that push food down in 5-10 seconds Sphincter- muscular rings in the esophagus that close off parts of the alimentary canal

27. Stomach

28. Digestion Stomach: Gastric Juice : HCL + pepsin Chyme: gastric juice + food Mucus Muscle

29. Digestion Small intestine (duodenum) - secretions from pancreas and gall bladder

31. Blood Sugar Homeostasis Homeostasis: 90 mg glucose/ 100 mL blood Stimulus: Blood glucose level rises after eating. Stimulus: Blood glucose level drops below set point.

32. Cecum Small intestine HerbivoreCarnivore Colon (large intestine) Stomach Small intestine

33. Large Intestine 90% water is recollected Includes the colon

34. Linear Flow Total Bloodstream Veins to heart Lymphatic system Small intestine Esophagus Stomach Lipids Mouth Hepatic portal vein Absorbed food (except lipids) Absorbed water Secretions from the gastric glands of the stomach Secretions from the pancreas and the liver Liver Rectum Anus Large intestine

36. Diseases Crohn’s Disease Acid Reflux Disease Celiac Disease

37. Crohn’s Disease an inflammatory autoimmune disease Symptoms: primarily abdominal pain, diarrhea (usually with blood), vomiting or weight loss The immune system attacking the gastrointestinal tract and producing inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract No cure, but stem cell research is promising medication to control symptoms, maintain remission and prevent relapses

38. Crohn’s Disease Affects the ileum and the large intestine or both most commonly Structuring: narrowing of the bowel which can lead to bowel obstruction or changes in the caliber of feces Penetrating: creates abnormal passageways between the bowel and other structures like the skin Inflammatory: inflammation without causing strictures or fistula

39. Celiac Disease an autoimmune disorder of the small intestine that occurs in genetically predisposed people. Symptoms: chronic diarrhea, failure to thrive in children, fatigue. There are asymptomatic cases Treatment: a gluten free diet

40. Acid Reflux Acid is regurgitated and burns the esophagus Symptoms: Heartburn, Nausea, Chronic Salivation, Damage to esophagus Treatments are usually lifestyle (foods, positional therapy) changes along with medications and possibly surgery

41. Acid Reflux Reflux esophagitis Esophageal strictures Barrett's esophagus Esophageal adenocarcinoma—a rare form of cancer.
