Human Anatomy and Physiology Unit 5, Part 2: The Digestive System
Organization 1. Gastrointestinal tract (alimentary canal) Tube for transit of food during processing. Functional segments include: 2. Mouth, esophagus, stomach, S. I, L. I Accessory structures Contribute to the food processing. Teeth, tongue, salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas.
Figure 24. 1 Organs of the Digestive System Important Diagram
Six Basic Digestive Processes 1. 2. 3. 4. Ingestion Secretion Mixing and propulsion Digestion i. ii. 5. 6. Mechanical digestion Chemical digestion Absorption Defecation
LAYERS OF THE GI TRACT
Four Layers of the GI tract 1. Mucosa - innermost 2. Submucosa 3. Muscularis 4. Serosa - outermost
Mucosa Composed of 3 layers: 1. 2. 3. Epithelium Lamina Propria Muscularis mucosa Important role in digestion & absorption Mucosa-associated lymphatic tissue (MALT) MUCOSA: Epithelium Lamina propria Muscularis mucosae
Mucosa 1. Epithelium Mucus and enteroendocrine cells Nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium Simple columnar epithelium Mouth Pharynx Esophagus Anal canal Stomach Intestines FNC: Protection FNC: Secretion and Absorption
Mucosa 2. Lamina Propria Supports epithelium Binds to muscularis mucosa Areolar connective tissue Blood & lymphatic vessels MALT Prominently Nerves tonsils, S. I. , appendix, L. I. and sensors
Mucosa 3. Muscularis mucosa Smooth muscle Creates folds in stomach and S. I Increases surface area
Submucosa Composed of: 1. 2. Areolar connective tissue (highly vascular) Submucosal plexus (ENS) Binds mucosa to muscularis Regulates chemical digestion
Muscularis Skeletal muscle in mouth, pharynx, superior esophagus, and external anal sphincter Rest of GI tract is composed of smooth muscle: 1. Inner circular muscle 2. Outer longitudinal muscle Contains myenteric plexus between (ENS) Important role in mixing and propulsion
Serosa Serous membrane Areolar connective tissue Simple squamous epithelium Esophagus lacks serosa – replaced with adventitia (single layer of loose areolar CT) Inf to diaphragm = Visceral peritoneum Secretes serous fluid

NEURAL INNERVATION OF THE GI TRACT
Enteric Nervous System o o Second brain “Brain of the gut. ” Consists of 100 million motor neurons, interneurons, and sensory neurons that extend from the esophagus to the anus. o o Located in sheaths of tissue lining the esophagus, stomach, S. I and colon Neurons arranged into the myenteric plexus and the submucosal plexus.
Enteric Nervous System Submucosal neurons control the secretory cells. Myenteric neurons control gastric motility. Can function independently of the CNS.
Figure 24. 4 Organization of the Enteric Nervous System
Autonomic Nervous System Vagus nerve (X) parasympathetic fibers stimulate ENS neurons. Stimulate GI secretion and motility Sympathetic nerves (thoracic & upper lumbar regions of SC) inhibit synapse of ENS neurons. Anger, fear and anxiety slow digestion
Gastrointestinal Reflex Pathways Regulate secretions and motility in response to stimuli present in the lumen. Reflexes begin with receptors associated with sensory neurons of the ENS, CNS, and ANS can modulate reflexes.
Sensory Receptors in G. I Tract Chemoreceptors Mechanoreceptors Controls of the digestive activity are both extrinsic and intrinsic (nervous and hormonal)
Gastrointestinal Reflex Pathways
PERITONEUM
Key Terms Serous Membrane - Smooth, transparent, two-layered membrane that lines internal cavities of the body, lubricated by a fluid derived from serum. Mesothelium. Peritoneum – body’s largest serous membrane Parietal peritoneum – lines abdominal wall Visceral peritoneum - covers most abdominal organs (serosa); some organs (kidneys, pancreas) are retroperitoneal Peritoneal cavity - potential space between parietal and visceral peritoneum; contains serous fluid.
Figure 24. 5 Relationship of the peritoneal folds to one another and to organs of the digestive system
Main extensions of the peritoneum 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Greater omentum Falciform ligament Lesser omentum Mesentery Mesocolon
Greater Omentum Adipose tissue Arises from stomach and duodenum Covers S. I Attaches to transverse colon.
Falciform Ligament Attaches liver to abdominal wall and diaphragm.
Lesser Omentum Suspends stomach and small intestine from liver.
Mesentery Largest fold. Binds small intestine to posterior abdominal wall.
Mesocolon Binds large intestine to posterior abdominal wall. Works with mesentery to keep the intestines in place.
Retroperitoneal Only covered on anterior surface Kidneys, suprarenal glands, pancreas, ascending and descending colon, duodenum
MOUTH
Mouth (oral or buccal cavity) Cheeks, hard & soft palate, lips, tongue. Covered externally by skin. Covered internally by mucous membrane.
Mouth (oral or buccal cavity) Divided 1. 2. into: Vestibule - bounded externally by cheeks and lips and internally by gums and teeth. Oral cavity proper extends from gums and teeth to fauces
Cheeks – contain buccinator muscles Lips (labia) – contain orbicularis oris muscles; attached to gum by labial frenulum Lips and cheeks keep food between teeth and assist in speech. Uvula – muscular structure hanging at the back of the throat; blocks nasopharyngeal opening during swallowing
Palate Hard palate – anterior portion of mouth’s roof; formed by maxillae and palatine bones Soft palate – posterior portion of mouth's roof; formed by two muscular arches: Palatoglossal arch - extends from palate to tongue anterior to palatine tonsils Palatopharyngeal arch - extends from palate to pharyngeal wall posterior to palatine tonsil
Figure 24. 6 Structures of the mouth (oral cavity)
Salivary Glands General Saliva Functions: Keeps the oral and pharyngeal mucous membranes moist. Lubricates and dissolves food. Starts carbohydrate chemical digestion. Most saliva is secreted by salivary glands. Some saliva comes from buccal glands in the mucous membrane that lines the mouth. Minor glands = labial, buccal, lingual and palatal.
Salivary Glands Outside the mouth ducts oral cavity 1. Parotid glands - below ear, over masseter; parotid ducts open into vestibule beside 2 nd maxillary molar. 2. Submandibular glands - under mandible; submandibular ducts open lateral to lingual frenulum 3. Sublingual glands - floor of mouth deep to tongue; lesser sublingual ducts open into floor of mouth
Figure 24. 7 The three major salivary glands – parotid, sublingual, and submandibular
Salivary Glands Salivary Small gland cells are organized into acini. saclike clusters surrounded by secretory cells. Serous acini - secrete a watery fluid Mucous acini - secrete a slimy, mucus secretion Parotid glands – serous acini only Submandibular glands – mostly serous acini and a few mucous acini Sublingual glands - mostly mucous acini and a few serous acini
Figure 24. 7 B Histology of the submandibular gland
Composition and Functions of Saliva Composition: 1. 2. 99. 5% water 0. 5% solutes (salts, gases, mucous, ions, enzymes, lysozyme, Ig. A) Functions: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Lubricate food Dissolve food for tasting Moistens mucous membranes Bicarbonate ions buffer acidic foods Waste removal – urea + uric acid Salivary amylase begins chemical digestion of starch (maltose) Lysozyme antibacterial Ig. A 1 st line of defense
Salivation Secretion Moisten mucous membranes Speech Reabsorption Dehydration ANS control
Salivation 1. Increase salivation Sight, smell, sounds, thoughts/memory. Tongue stimulation Salivatory nuclei increase salivation Parasympathetic Facial 2. fibers in CN VII & CN IX nerve impulses stimulate saliva (VII) and glossopharyngeal (IX) nerves. Stop salivation Sympathetic nerves inhibit salivation
Tongue Papillae cover upper surface (dorsum) and sides. Projections of lamina propria Some contain taste buds Lingual frenulum attaches tongue to mouth’s floor
Teeth Project into the mouth Alveolar processes of mandible and maxilla Covered by gingivae
Teeth Adapted for mechanical digestion. A typical tooth consists of:
Teeth Composed Encloses primarily of dentin the crown’s pulp cavity the roots’ root canals. Dentin Root’s of crown covered in enamel dentin is covered by cementum Cementum attaches root to periodontal ligament Fibrous connective tissue Anchor Shock absorber
Figure 24. 8 A typical tooth and surrounding structures
Dentition There are two sets of teeth in an individual’s lifetime: 1. Deciduous (primary) teeth 20 teeth that start erupting at 6 months 2. Permanent (secondary) teeth 32 teeth that erupt between 6 and 12 years of age Figure 24. 9 in textbook
Tooth Types 1. Incisors – chisel shaped; cutting 2. Cuspids (canines) – pointed; tearing 3. Premolars – bicuspid; crushing and grinding 4. Molars – four cusps; crushing and grinding
Digestion in the Mouth Mechanical digestion (mastication or chewing) Mixes with saliva bolus Chemical digestion Amylase Begins starch digestion at p. H of 6. 5 or 7. 0 When bolus & enzymes hit the p. H of 2. 5 (gastric juices), hydrolysis ceases Lingual lipase Secreted by glands in tongue Begins breakdown of triglycerides once it reaches the acidic p. H in the stomach
