Oesophagus
Approximately 25cm
long
Moves food from the
throat to the stomach
Muscle movement
called peristalsis
If acid from the
stomach gets in here
thats heartburn.
Stomach Regions
Esophageal
Non-glandular
Cardiac
Secretes mucus
Fundic
Parietal cells
Chief cells
Pyloric
Mucus
Stomach
A stretchy bag that holds
your food after you eat/
Stores the food you eat
Helps to break food into
smaller pieces so your
body can use it for energy
and nutrition
Mixes food with digestive
juices
Acid in the stomach kills
bacteria
Small Intestine
Small intestines are roughly
6 metres long.
Enzymes and bile are added.
Villi increase the surface
area to help absorbtion.
Nutrients from the food pass
into the bloodstream through
the small intestine walls.
Food stays in your small
intestine for 4 to 8 hours
Small Intestine
Composed of 3 segments (proximal to distal)

Duodenum
Releases bile and pancreatic secretions
Active site of digestion
Jejunum
Active site of nutrient absorption
Ileum
Active site of nutrient absorption
Most water, vitamins & minerals
Some bacterial presence
Fermentation
The pH of the small intestine increases towards 7.0 as

food moves from the duodenum to the ileum
Large Intestine
About 1.5 metres long
Accepts what small intestines
dont absorb.
Absorbs water and minerals
from the waste matter.
Absorption means taking into
the body via the blood stream.
Waste stays for 10 to 12 hours
Gall Bladder
Storage tank for bile (a
greenish-yellow liquid)
that helps your body
break down and use fats
Stores bile from the liver
Delivers bile when food is
digested
Fatty diets can cause
gallstones
Liver
Directly affects digestion
by producing bile
Bile is an enzyme that
helps dissolve fat
Factory for antibodies
and bile/ Is often called
the bodys energy factory
Stores vitamins and
sugars until your body
needs them
Pancreas
Produces compounds
to digest fats and
proteins
Neutralizes acids that
enter small intestine
Regulates blood
sugar by producing
insulin
Rectum and Anus

Rectum
About 15cm long
Stores waste
before egestion.
Anus
Muscular ring that
controls egestion.

How is the digestive process

controlled?
Hormone Regulators
The major hormones that control the functions of the
digestive system are produced and released by cells in
the mucosa of the stomach and small intestine. These
hormones are released into the blood of the digestive
tract, travel back to the heart and through the arteries,
and return to the digestive system where they stimulate
digestive juices and cause organ movement.
HOW IS THE DIGESTIVE

PROCESS CONTROLLED?
The hormones that control digestion are gastrin, secretin,
and cholecystokinin (CCK):
Gastrin causes the stomach to produce an acid for
dissolving and digesting some foods. It is also necessary
for the normal growth of the lining of the stomach, small
intestine, and colon.
Secretin causes the pancreas to send out a digestive

juice that is rich in bicarbonate. It stimulates the stomach
to produce pepsin, an enzyme that digests protein, and it
also stimulates the liver to produce bile.
CCK causes the pancreas to grow and to produce the

enzymes of pancreatic juice, and it causes the
gallbladder to empty.
The additional hormones

Ghrelin is produced in the stomach and
upper intestine in the absence of food in
the digestive system and stimulates
appetite.
Peptide YY is produced in the digestive

tract in response to a meal in the system
and inhibits appetite.
Nerve Regulators
Two types of nerves help control the action of the
digestive system.
Extrinsic, or outside, nerves come to the
digestive organs from the brain or the spinal
cord. They release two chemicals,
acetylcholine and adrenaline
The intrinsic, or inside, nerves make up a very dense
network embedded in the walls of the esophagus,
stomach, small intestin, and colon. The intrinsic nerves
are triggered to act when the walls of the hollow organs
are stretched by food. They release many different
substances that speed up or delay the movement of food
and the production of juices by the digestive organs.
