Six functions of the digestive system:
▪ Ingestion
▪ Mechanical processing – crashing and shearing
▪ Chemical breakdown of food or digestion
▪ Secretion of water, acids, enzyme, buffers and salts
▪ Absorption of organic substances, electrolytes, vitimins and water
▪ Excretion – removal of waste products

,Sections of the digestion system:
▪ Oral cavity
▪ Pharynx
▪ Osophagus (esophagus)
▪ Stomach
▪ Small intestine
▪ Large intestine
▪ Accessory organ – liver and
pancrease




Stomach:

- Important organ
- Involves the first stage of processing and breaking down food
- Stores food
- The food located in the stomach is known as chyme
- It is a folded structure that can expand
- Has a greater surface area thus allowing for food to be stored at a greater capacity
- Contains acid secreting cells




Blood supply:
- The stomach receives arterial
supply of blood from the
abdominal aorta
- Celiac trunk is the main
artery supplying blood
- Gastric arteries
