Tract Mouth Organ where process of digestion begins Mastication chewing mixing food with saliva Four basic taste sensations sweet sour bitter salty savory Savory flavor associates w MSG Aroma texture and temperature smell1 000 times more sensitive than taste Whitney Rolfes Understanding Nutrition 12th Edition MouthMouth Pharynx short tube shared by digestive and respiratory systems Directs food from mouth to esophagus Forms Bolus mouthful of food chewed swallowed amount swallowed at one time Esophagus passes food from mouth to stomach Whitney Rolfes Understanding Nutrition 12th Edition Esophagus Esophagus Two sphincters 1 Upper esophageal sphincter opens during a swallow located near trachea Bolus slides through a hole in diaphragm to stomach prevents backflow from esophagus to mouth 2 Lower esophageal sphincter cardiac prevents backflow from stomach to esophagus Sphincter circular muscle surrounding able to close a body opening regulate flow of food particles allow food to slide down Whitney Rolfes Understanding Nutrition 12th Edition Diaphragm Diaphragm Set of muscles forms dome Separates the abdomen from the thoracic cavity Whitney Rolfes Understanding Nutrition 12th Edition Stomach Stomach Movement of bolus from esophagus to Stomach adds acid enzymes fluid and churns mixes grinds food into liquid mass ONLY protein digested in stomach Chyme semisolid mass of partly digested food expelled by stomach into duodenum Pyloric sphincter opens into small intestine close behind chyme allows passage from stomach into small intestine Whitney Rolfes Understanding Nutrition 12th Edition Important Organs Important Organs Liver makes bile to assist with fat digestion Gallbladder stores bile until needed Pancreas Makes enzymes to digest CHO PRO and FAT Releases bicarbonate to neutralize acidic chyme going into small intestine Whitney Rolfes Understanding Nutrition 12th Edition Small Intestine Small Intestine Intestinal glands secrete enzymes that digest all three energy yielding nutrients CHO PRO FAT into smaller nutrient particles Cell wall absorbs nutrients into blood and lymph Whitney Rolfes Understanding Nutrition 12th Edition Small intestine Small intestine 10 feet coiled within abdomen Common bile duct location where gall bladder and pancreatic duct meet chyme bypasses this opening dripping fluids goes into small intestine Pancreas and gall bladder fluids from these drip into small intestine Three segments Duodenum Jejunem Ileum Whitney Rolfes Understanding Nutrition 12th Edition Illeocecal sphincter Illeocecal sphincter valve valve
