Lectures 7 & 8
Martini’s VisualAnatomy and Physiology
First Edition
Martini Ober
2
Lecture Overview (Lectures 7 & 8)
• Introduction to the digestive system
• General characteristics of the alimentary canal
• The mouth and tongue
• Salivary glands
• Pharynx and esophagus
• Stomach
• Pancreas
3
Digestive SystemFunctions of Digestive System
• ingestion
• mechanical digestion
• chemical digestion
• propulsion
• absorption
• excretion
• defecation
Digestion is the mechanical and chemical breakdown of food into a form that cells can absorb
4
Major Organs of Digestive SystemFigure from: Saladin, Anatomy & Physiology, McGraw Hill, 2007
Organs can be divided into the:
-Digestive tract (primary) (alimentary canal); tube extending from mouth to anus (about 30 ft.)
-Accessory organs; teeth, tongue, salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas

The Abdominal Cavity & Peritoneum
Figure from: Martini, Anatomy & Physiology, Prentice Hall, 2001
Notice that the pancreas, duodenum, and rectum are retroperitoneal
8
Alimentary Canal
Continuous tube modified along its length to carry out specialized, regional functions.
Mouth, pharynx, esophagus, and anal canal are lined by nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium
Stomach and intestines are lined by simple columnar epithelium.
Why?
9
Alimentary Canal Wall
Figure from: Martini, Anatomy & Physiology, Prentice Hall, 2001
Know the 4 layers of the alimentary canal
10
Alimentary Canal Wall
11
Movements Through the Alimentary Canal• mixing movements (segmentation)
• peristalsis - The wavelike muscular contractions of the alimentary canal or other tubular structures by which contents are forced onward toward the opening. (Triggered by pacesetter cells.)
12
Innervation of the Alimentary Canal
• submucosal plexus – controls secretions/blood flow• myenteric plexus – controls gastrointestinal motility/sphincters• parasympathetic division of ANS – increases activities of digestive system and relaxes sphincters
• sympathetic division of ANS – generally inhibits digestive actions and contracts sphincters
The alimentary canal has extensive sympathetic and parasympathetic innervation - mainly in the muscularis externa - regulates its tone and the strength, rate, and velocity of muscular contractions
13
Mouth (Oral or Buccal cavity)
• ingestion
• mechanical digestion
• prepares food for further chemical digestion

TongueVery muscular; muscles run in several directionsCovered by mucous membranes
1. Tastebuds
2. Friction for food handling
3. Secretes lingual lipase
Blast from the past - Root of tongue is anchored to the hyoid bone
15
Palate• roof of oral cavity
Important in separating the nasopharynx from the pharynx during swallowing

19
Functions of Saliva
• Moistens food
• Binds food particles
• Dissolves food for tasting
• Begins chemical digestion of complex CHO (amylase)
• Cleans teeth and mouth (pH = 6.5 – 7.5)
• Anti-microbial (IgA and lysozyme)
20
Salivary Glands
21
Secretions of Salivary Glands
• Parotid glands • clear• primarily water, serous fluid• rich in amylase • mumps virus typically attacks here
• Submandibular glands• primarily serous fluid• some mucus, amylase
• Sublingual glands• primarily mucus• most viscous
Secretions are slightly acidic and continual due to basal parasympathetic stimulation, but increase after
- presence, or anticipation of, food; - parasympathetic stimulation (watery, large volume) - sympathetic stimulation (viscous, small volume)
22
Pharynx
Pharynx aids swallowing by grasping food and moving it toward the esophagus.
23
Three Phases of the Swallowing Reflex
• soft palate and uvula raise
• hyoid bone and larynx elevate
• epiglottis closes off top of trachea
• longitudinal muscles of pharynx contract
• inferior constrictor muscles relax and esophagus opens
• peristaltic waves push food through pharynx
Only voluntary phase is the buccal (oral) phase, i.e., the initiation of swallowing, then…
Pharyngeal phase
Esophageal phase
reflexive
24
Swallowing Mechanism
25
Esophagus
Lower esophageal (cardiac) sphincter prevents reflux (backup) of stomach acid into the esophagus.
Veins drain into hepatic portal vein (via gastric veins)
Esophagus conveys food from pharynx to stomach by peristalsis
26
Stomach
Greater curvature
Stomach Functions: - Mixing - Reservoir - Secretion of gastric juice - Digestion, anti-bacterial action, facilitates absorption of vitamin B12
- Secretion of gastrin, somatostatin
Stomach can hold about 1-1.5 liters of material

29
Gastric Secretions
• pepsinogen• from chief cells• inactive form of pepsin
• pepsin• from pepsinogen in presence of HCl• protein splitting enzyme
• hydrochloric acid• from parietal cells• needed to convert pepsinogen to pepsin• ‘p’ in parietal and ‘p’ in pH
• mucus (cardia)• from goblet cells and mucous glands• protective to stomach wall
• intrinsic factor• from parietal cells• required for vitamin B12 absorption
• INFANTS ONLY• rennin (chymosin)• gastric lipase
• mucus, gastrin, somatostatin• from pyloric glands• protective to stomach wall• gastrin and somatostatin are hormones
30
Secretion of H+ by Parietal Cells
Figure from: Martini, Anatomy & Physiology, Prentice Hall, 2001
Important functions of the stomach pH (1.5 – 2.0)
- kills microorganisms
- denatures proteins
- breaks down plant material and CT in meats
- activates pepsin
31
Three Phases of Stomach Control
• Cephalic phase• triggered by smell, taste, sight, or thought of food• begin secretion and digestion
• Gastric phase• triggered by distension, presence of food, and rise in pH in stomach• enhances secretion and digestion
• Intestinal phase • triggered by distension of small intestine and pH change• controls rate of gastric emptying; may slow emptying
NOTE that all these phases control activity in the STOMACH
Know what each phase does (shown in red)
32
Cephalic Phase of Gastric Secretion
Figure from: Martini, Anatomy & Physiology, Prentice Hall, 2001
Emotional states can exaggerate or inhibit this phase
33
Gastric Phase of Gastric Secretion
Figure from: Martini, Anatomy & Physiology, Prentice Hall, 2001
Proteins, alcohol, and caffeine can markedly increase secretions by stimulating gastric chemoreceptors
Histamine stimulates acid secretion by parietal cells
34
Intestinal Phase of Gastric Secretion
Figure from: Martini, Anatomy & Physiology, Prentice Hall, 2001
Enterogastric reflex (inhibits gastric activity) –reduces gastric motility, stimulates contraction of pyloric sphincter (pylorus)

Mixing and Emptying Actions
37
Gastric Absorption
• some water• certain salts• certain lipid-soluble drugs, e.g., aspirin• alcohol (slowed by presence of fats)
Gastric absorption is very limited due to:
- blanket of mucus covering cells - epithelial cells lack specialized transport mechanisms - tight junctions between adjacent epithelial cells - gastric lining is relatively impermeable to water - chyme usually contains only partially digested material
Some substances can be absorbed by the stomach:
38
Pancreas
Exocrine (digestive) and endocrine (metabolic) functions
Completes digestion of proteins that was started in the stomach
39
Blood Supply and Drainage of Pancreas

Pancreatic Juice
• pancreatic amylase – splits glycogen into disaccharides
• pancreatic lipases – break down triglycerides
• pancreatic nucleases – digest nucleic acids
• bicarbonate ions – make pancreatic juice alkaline (pH = 8) and neutralize acid coming from stomach
• Pancreatic proteolytic enzymes…
41

42
Regulation of Pancreatic Secretions
• acidic chyme stimulates release of secretin
• secretin stimulates release of watery pancreatic juice with bicarbonate and phosphate (= buffers; to pH)
CCK and parasympathetic NS stimulate production and secretion of pancreatic enzymes and zymogens
