Stages of digestion Ingestion Digestion Absorption Egestion
5
Digestion: breaking down large molecules Physical Chemical Chewing Peristalsis Churning Hydrolysis reactions Enzymes Substances
6
Digestive juices: Saliva Gastric Pancreatic Intestinal All contain enzymes
7
Carbohydrate Digestion Two Stages Starch to Maltose Maltose to Glucose
8
Carbohydrate : Starch Digestion starts in the mouth Physical: Teeth / chewing Tongue Chemical Salivary Amylase Starch Amylase Maltose Mucus
9
Carbohydrate : Starch 2 Oesophagus Physical Peristalsis Chemical Mucus

Structure of digestive system Basic structure alimentary canal Specific Structure Organs Accessory glands

17
Alimentary canal Four common layers throughout the system: Mucosa: innermost layer : secretion/ absorption, (folded, glands) Submucosa: connective tissue, lymph, blood vessels, glands and nerves Muscularis: two layers of smooth muscle, responsible for peristalsis Serosa: outermost layer, connective tissue connects to abdomen Slide 14.2B General Structure of the Alimentary Canal
18
Stomach Muscular sac (4 litres) Sphincter muscles Mucosa: Walls contain many folds Gastric glands Muscularis: Extra muscle layer (3)

20
Small Intestine (Duodenum) Small intestine = 6.5 meters long (approx) Duodenum (first 25cm) Includes bile and pancreatic duct Most digestion is completed in duodenum Mucosa: Few villi Enzymes in the plasma membrane Submucosa Blood / lymph vessels, glands, nerves
21
Small Intestines (ileum) Jejunum (2m) and ileum (4m) 95% nutrient absorption How would you would expect the structure of the ileum to be?
22
Mucosa Greatly folded Villi (large structures in mucosa) Microvilli (brush borders) Glands Enzymes in the plasma membrane
23
Small Intestines (ileum) Submucosa Good blood supply Lymph vessel supply (lacteals) Glands Nerves
24
villi
25
microvilli
26
Absorption Small soluble molecules are absorbed through the microvilli lining by: Diffusion Facilitated diffusion Active transport
27
Glucose Active transport (gut to epithelial cell) Linked to sodium ions Actively pumped out Facilitated diffusion (epithelial cell to capillaries)
28
Amino Acids Facilitated diffusion (gut to epithelial cell) AA = different carrier Linked to sodium ion Actively pumped out Facilitated diffusion (epithelial cell to capillaries)
29
Lipid digestion
30
Lipid Absorption Mucosal cell Lacteal Monoglycerides Fatty Acids Diffusion Bile salts
31
What’s left? Large Intestine (colon) Undigested food Bacteria (mutual benefit) Water and vitamins reabsorbed Large, folded walls. Rectum Anus
32
Name the small soluble food molecule resulting from protein, lipid and carbohydrate digestion. Amino acids, fatty acids + glycerol and glucose. Amino acids, fatty acids + glycerol and glucose. Name 3 other molecules which the body needs in a balanced diet. Vitamins, minerals and water. Vitamins, minerals and water. Where in the alimentary canal are these 3 absorbed? The large intestine. The large intestine.
33
Which blood vessel takes small food molecules away from the small intestine. Where are they taken to first? Hepatic portal vein. The liver. Hepatic portal vein. The liver. What happens to excess glucose? I.e. glucose not needed immediately for respiration. It’s converted into glycogen and stored in the liver or muscle cells It’s converted into glycogen and stored in the liver or muscle cells What happens to excess amino acids taken into the liver? Amino acids can’t be stored so they are deaminated by the liver cells producing glucose and a waste product calledurea Amino acids can’t be stored so they are deaminated by the liver cells producing glucose and a waste product called urea
34
Villi
35
How do cells assimilate the big nutrients? a) Glucose provides energy by cell respiration resultion in A.T.P to enable the cell to do work eg muscle cell contraction. b) Amino acids build into new human protein eg enzymes, plasma proteins, hormones and are used in growth and repair. b) Amino acids build into new human protein eg enzymes, plasma proteins, hormones and are used in growth and repair. c) Fatty acids and glycerol are used to build cell membranes and for cell respiration. c) Fatty acids and glycerol are used to build cell membranes and for cell respiration.
36
Ficks law Large SA Concentration gradient Thickness of membrane
37
Lipids Combine with bile salts Monoglycerides, fatty acids = glycerol Micelles travel to epithelial cell membrane MG,FA and G dissolve in phospholid bilayer (Diffusion) Bile salts left behind Triglycerides combine with proteins form chymomicrons Diffuse into lacteals
38
Proteins Dipeptides Facilitated diffusion (gut to epithelial cell) Cytoplasmic enzymes Proteins Pinocytosis (maternal antibodies)
