* **Accessory organs:** Liver, gallbladder, pancreas

### Detailed Anatomy and Histology
* Microscopic structure of different digestive organs
* Layers of the digestive tract (mucosa, submucosa, muscularis externa, serosa)
* Specialized tissues and cells (e.g., gastric glands, intestinal crypts)

### Visual Aids
* Clear diagrams and images of digestive organs
* Histological slides or micrographs
* Animations or videos to demonstrate processes like peristalsis

### Key Points to Emphasize
* Relationship between structure and function
* Adaptations of different organs for specific digestive tasks
* Blood supply and nerve innervation of the digestive system

### Conclusion
* Recapitulation of the major components
* Importance of a healthy digestive system
**By combining clear explanations, detailed visuals, and relevant clinical information, this PowerPoint presentation will serve as an excellent educational resource for students, healthcare professionals, or anyone interested in human anatomy and physiology.**
**Would you like to focus on a specific part of the digestive system, or do you need help with creating the PowerPoint slides?**

2. What is the
digestive
system?
The digestive system is a
continuous tube that
begins at the mouth and
ends at the anus.
Measuring about 30 feet
long in the average adult, it
is known as the alimentary
canal or gastrointestinal
tract. It has 3 functions:
the digestion of food into
nutrients, the absorption
of nutrients into the
bloodstream, and the
elimination of solid
wastes.

3. The mouth:
salivary
glands…
Three pairs of glands
open into the oral
cavity, producing
saliva: the parotid
(pahRŎD ed),
sublingual
(sub LIN GWUL), and
submandibular(sub
man DIB you ler)
glands.
The sensory organs such as
the nose and eyes send a
message to the brain, the
brain sends the message to
the salivary glands, and they
secrete the chemicals to
begin the digestive process.

4. The mouth:
tongue
The tongue is a
muscle covered with
a mucous membrane.
It has a rear portion
called the root, the
tip, and the central
body. It is covered
with taste buds and
raised elevations
called papillae
(pahPILL ah).
The taste buds taste sweet, sour, salt, bitter, and
umami (oo MAH mee) or savory.

5. The mouth: teeth
The teeth are used
for chewing the
food…mastication.
The food is broken
apart and mixed with
saliva to form a
bolus, ready to be
swallowed.
Muscular constrictions move the bolus through
the pharynx (soft palate at the back of the mouth)
and into the esophagus while blocking the
opening to the larynx and preventing the food
from entering the airway.

6. The esophagus…
The food is moved down
the esophagus toward
the stomach by wavelike
muscular contractions
called peristalsis. At the
opening of the stomach
is the lower esophageal
sphincter. This is a
muscle valve that
permits the passage of
food, but not the backup
of stomach contents
under normal conditions.

7. The stomach…
The stomach is a
muscular,
expandable organ,
the upper portion
called the fundus
and the lower
portion called the
antrum.
Hydrochloric acid
and other gastric
juices convert the
food to a semiliquid
state called chyme.
Chyme passes through the
pyloric sphincter valve at
the bottom of the stomach,
into the small intestine.

8. The small intestine: duodenum
The small intestine is about 21 feet long and 1”
diameter, extending from the pyloric sphincter
valve to the large intestine. The duodenum is the
foot-long section just beyond the stomach; the
jejunum is the next 8 feet, and the ileum is the
remaining 12 feet.

9. The liver’s primary
contribution to digestion
is the production of bile
or gallwhich drains into
the duodenum, and some
is stored in the
gallbladder. It travels
through the hepatic
ducts, which merge
together. Bile helps
digest fats. The liver also
stores iron and the fat-
soluble vitamins A, D, E,
and K.
The small intestine: the liver

10. Bile stored in the
gallbladder becomes
more concentrated,
increasing its potency
and intensifying its
effect. When chyme
containing fat leaves
the stomach, the
gallbladder contracts
and discharges bile
through the cystic
ductand common bile
ductand into the
duodenum of the small
intestine.
The small intestine:
the gallbladder

11. The pancreas
secretes pancreatic
juiceinto the
duodenum via the
pancreatic ductwhich
merges with the
common bile duct.
This pancreatic juice
contains digestive
enzymes and
bicarbonate ions.
It’s role is so vital to digestion, that a person
would starve without it, even if they were
consuming an adequate amount of food.
The small intestine: the pancreas

12. The jejunum and ilium are lined
with hair-like protrusions calIed
villi. They slow the passage of
food, and allow food particles to
be captured in among these
finger-like villi --so that the
blood inside the villi can absorb
the nutrients in the food. Villus
capillaries collect amino acids
(proteins) and glucose (simple
sugars). Villus lacteals collect
absorbed fatty acids.
The small intestine: the jejunum
and ilium

13. The function of the
large intestine, or
bowel, is to absorb the
remaining water and
nutrients from
indigestible food matter,
store unusable food
matter (wastes), and then
eliminate the wastes
from the body. The large
intestine is subdivided
into the cecum and the
ascending/transverse/
descending/and sigmoid
colon sections.
The large intestine is
only about 4-5 feet in
length, and 2 ½ inches
in diameter.
The small intestine:
the large intestine

14. The rectum is where
fecesare stored until
they leave the
digestive system,
through the anus as a
bowel movement.
The rectum and anus…
As the rectal walls expand
with waste material, receptors
from the nervous system
stimulate the desire to
defecate. For defecation or
egestion, we consciously
relax the external anal
sphinctermuscle to expel the
waste through the anus.
