What is Digestion?
Teeth
Tongue
Salivary Gland
Liver
Pancreas
When we eat food, it needs to be broken down into Gallbladder
smallest form that can be absorbed by the body.
TYPES OF DIGESTION
Mechanical Digestion
Chemical Digestion
Esophagus
The smooth muscle of the esophagus contract in a
rhythmic form and wavelike motion. This is called
peristalsis.
Peristalsis -This process pushes the bolus down to the
stomach. Stomach a large pear-shaped organ that can
temporarily expand to stone food.
The sphincter muscle at the end of the stomach contact
to keep the bolus inside.
The churning action of the stomach breaks food down
the bolus into smaller food parts.
Pancreas
An elongated organ behind the stomach. It secretes
pancreatic juice that help digest carbohydrates, fats and
proteins.
Chyme is no longer a solid food, but it liquid. breaks
down into thick liquid. Liver the largest organ in the
body.
Liver
The liver produced bile which does to the gallbladder.
Gallbladder
A small sac under the liver where bile is stored. During
digestion, the gallbladder releases bile into the small
intestine.
Bile helps to digest
Small Intestine
It is a long-coiled tube connected to the stomach. If it is
stretched, it is about 7 meters long
Most of the digestion takes place in the small intestine.
It adds substance in the chyme to break it down further.
Small intestine absorbs most the nutrients from the food
and prepares the nutrients for circulation throughout the
different parts of the body.
Large Intestine
In this place, water from the undigested food is
absorbed.
The indigestible food materials are broken down until
only the pants which are not useful to the body are left.
Rectum
provides temporary storage for feces before they are
excreted.
Peristalsis of the smooth muscle in the rectum pushes
the feces out of the body through the anus.
DEFECATION
The process if eliminating feces.
