The Digestive SystemIf human cells could use the food eaten in that form, there would

be no need for a digestive system. The digestive system changes the food into a form that can be used by the cells and that enables the nutrients to get into the blood so they can be transported throughout the body.The digestive system consists of one long tube and the organs that attach to it. The organs produce digestive chemicals (enzymes and acids) that break down the nutrients into simpler forms so that absorption through the intestinal wall and into the blood stream can occur.There are two kinds of digestion: mechanical and chemical. Mechanical digestion involves physically breaking the food into smaller pieces. Mechanical digestion begins in the mouth as the food is chewed. Chemical digestion involves breaking down the food into simpler nutrients that can be used by the cells. Chemical digestion begins in the mouth when food mixes with saliva.Saliva contains an enzyme (amylase) that begins the breakdown of carbohydrates. (An enzyme is a protein that can catalyze certain biochemical reactions).Food is chewed into smaller pieces. Adults have 32 specialized teeth—teeth that can grind, chew, and tear different kinds of food. The tongue is an organ consisting of skeletal muscles (voluntary muscles) that move the food around the mouth to allow for efficient mechanical digestion. Salivary glands beneath and in back of the tongue secrete the saliva that allows for easier swallowing of food and the beginning of chemical digestion.Swallowing forces the chewed food through a tubular entrance (pharynx) to the esophagus (food tube). As food is swallowed a flap-like valve, the epiglottis, closes over the trachea (windpipe) to prevent food entering the windpipe and causing choking.The esophagus connects the pharynx with the stomach. Contractions of the esophagus push the food through a sphincter (a ring of smooth muscle that closes off an opening in the body) and into the stomach. NOTE: The digestive system moves food along by way of peristalsis, a wavelike contraction of smooth (involuntary) muscle. Other than the chemical digestion of carbohydrates in the mouth, all digestion to this point has been mechanical. The stomach starts chemical digestion of protein. Secretions from the stomach lining consist of about two liters of hydrochloric acid (HCl), pepsin, and other fluids that make up gastric fluids each day. The fluid is extremely acidic and it helps kill bacteria and other pathogens that may have been ingested. The stomach also grinds and churns food through mechanical processes.Nearly 7 meters in length, the small intestine is folded and curled around a small area in the abdominal cavity. The inside surfaces of the intestine are covered with projections called villi. These finger-like structures are covered in smaller projections called microvilli and work to absorb food molecules that have been broken down by the processes of chemical digestion.The large intestine receives the material “left-over” from chemical digestion that is basically nutrient free. Only water, cellulose, and indigestible materials are left. The main job of the large intestine is to remove water from the undigested material. Water is quickly removed from the material through villi and returns to the blood stream.

Use diagram #1 to answer the following questions.

1. What body system is represented in the diagram?

2. What do you think the main purpose of that system is?

©KeslerScience.com

The main function of the digestive system is to convert food into minerals and nutrients needed by the body. Use the diagram for the remainder of the task cards.

At position A food enters the mouth. It is broken down by chewing and grinding. Saliva is alsosecreted from under the tongue to help break down the food with enzymes.

1. Is this a physical change? Chemical change? Both?

©KeslerScience.com

Position B: Once the food has been broken down it moves down the esophagus using gravity and smooth muscle tissue. It ends up trapped inside the stomach by a sphincter muscle.

1. Is this a physical change? Chemical change? Both?

Position C: The stomach then breaks the food down into a liquid form with gastric juices (acid) and churning and grinding motions.

Position D: The liver produces a highly acidic compound called bile.This helps to break down the remaining food molecules.

Position E: The gallbladder stores the bile until it is needed in the digestive tract.

Position F: The liquid food moves into the small intestine where it is combined with the bile. Minerals and nutrients are absorbed into the bloodstream and delivered to the cells.

Position G: The remaining food is moved into the large intestine where any remaining water is removed and delivered to the rest of the body.

Position H: The solid waste moves into therectum and awaits removal from the body.

Glands secrete saliva which help to chemically break

down food.

Stores concentrated bile to release into the small intestine

Food is pushed through this muscular tube on the way

to the stomach

Nutrients are absorbed into the bloodstream. Leftover waste continues through

the digestive system

Sac-like organ with strong muscular walls. It grinds and mixes the food into a liquid using muscles and

enzymes

Highly specialized organ that is responsible for

processing waste so that defecation (excretion of

waste) is easy and convenient. Remaining

water is removed from waste

Produces bile which helps to carry away waste and

breakdown fats in the small intestine
