- Just the thought of eating food starts the digestive process. For example the salivary glands in our mouths are activated, producing an enzyme that will digest starch into simpler sugar molecules. An enzyme is a substance that speeds up a chemical reaction.
- The large, hollow organs of the digestive tract contain a layer of muscle that enables their walls to move. The movement of organ walls can propel food and liquid through the system and also can mix the contents within each organ. Food moves from one organ to the next through muscle action called peristalsis. Peristaliss looks like an ocean wave traveling through the muscle. The muscle of the organ contracts to create a narrowing and then propels the narrowed portion slowly down the length of the organ. These waves of narrowing push the food and fluid in front of them through each hollow organ.
- Swallowed food is pushed into the esophagus, which connects the throat above with the stomach below. The stomach has three mechanical tasks. First, it stores the swallowed food and liquid. It does this by opening and closing ringlike muscles, called sphincter muscles, at the top and bottom of the stomach. Second, it mixes up the food, liquid, and digestive juice produced by the stomach. The third task of the stomach is to slowly empty its contents into the small intestine.
- After the stomach empties the food and juice mixture, called chime, into the small intestine, the juices of two other digestive organs mix with the food. One of these organs, the pancreas, produces a juice that contains a wide array of enzymes to break down the carbohydrate, fat, and protein in food. A base called sodium bicarbonate is also released to neutralize the acid originating from the stomach.
- A second organ, the liver, produces yet another digestive juice called bile. Bile is stored between meals in the gallbladder. At mealtime, it is squeed out of the gallbladder, throught he bile ducts, and into the intestine to mix with the fat in food. Bile dissolves fat into the watery contents of the intestine, much like detergents that dissolve grease from a frying pan. After fat is dissolved, it is digested by enzymes from the pancreas and the lining of the intestine.
- The gastrointestinal tract is a long, muscular tube. If you were to stretch it out to its full length, it would be about thirty feet long. The tube is so specialized that it actually has its own nervous system.
- 5 Most digested molecules of food, as well as water and minerals, are absorbed through the small intestine. The small intestine contains many folds that are covererd with tiny fingerlike projections called villi. In turn, the villi are covered with microscopic projections called microvilli. These structures create a vast surface area through which nutrients can be absorbed. The surface area is approximately the size of a tennis court. Specialized cells allow nutrients to cross the membrane into the blood, where they are transported to other parts of the body for storage or further chemical change.
- Bacteria in the colon play a significant role in our defense system from outside threats. In fact, the largest part of our immune system resides in the lining of the digestive tract.
