Two Main Layers & lower layer of skin
Epidermis
Dermis
Hypodermis
-AKA adipose tissue & subcutaneous layer
Top layer is made of
dead cells
entire skin is replaced every 4 weeks
Rapid cell division
entire skin is replaced every 4 weeks
Rapid cell division
Bottom layer is
the basal layer
Skin Color from
Melanin
have many “fingers” that permeate through the dermis.
Melanocytes
What migrates thru these fingers and absorb the harmful UV rays from the sun.
Melanin
The more melanin=
=darker skin
2 types of glands in skin
sebaceous (oil)
sweat glands (perspiration)
sebaceous
secretes oil to protect skin & moisturize
sweat glands
help control body temp removes salts & wastes.
the skin aka
Hypodermis
Subcutaneous Layer
Adipose Layer
serves to insulate, protect and add form
Fatty tissue
Mechanical Digestion
from cutting, grinding, chewing in mouth. From churning by peristalsis in stomach

Accessory Organs
food doesn’t pass thru them. They supply digestive “juices”.

Cementum & Periodontal
membrane “glue” tooth to the bony socket
membrane “glue” tooth to the bony socket
Cementum & Periodontal
Chewed Food (smaller pieces w/ higher surface area) mixes w/ saliva becomes
bolus
Enzyme ------- begins Carbohydrate chemical digestion.
Amylase
Peristalsis
Involuntary contractions and relaxation of smooth muscle surrounding esophagus moves food down esophagus
Involuntary contractions and relaxation of smooth muscle surrounding esophagus moves food down esophagus
Peristalsis
Cardiac Sphincter
Ring shaped muscle separating the esophagus from the stomach
Ring shaped muscle separating the esophagus from the stomach
Cardiac Sphincter
sphincters
muscles that squeeze the digestive tube closed and help move material in only one direction.
muscles that squeeze the digestive tube closed and help move material in only one direction.
sphincters
Stomach secretes
HCI
HCI
very acidic
Bolus is mixed w/ acids for several hours
chyme
chyme
Bolus is mixed w/ acids for several hours
Pepsin
used in protein digestion
used in protein digestion
Pepsin
Leaves thru Pyloric Sphyncter to the
duodenum
Most chemical digestion takes place here
Small Intestine
3 regions of Small Intestine
duodenum, jejunum and ileum
Increased surface area by millions of
villi and microvilli
Main Functions of the Large Intestine (4)
Reabsorption of water
Reabsorption of vitamins
Waste elinination
Very little digestion (most is done in the stomach & small intestine)
Large Intestine divided into
Cecum, Ascending, Transverse, Descending, and Sigmoid Colon
Large Intestine aka
Colon
Undigested food & Wastes stored in the
rectum
stored in the rectum before being eliminated thru the
anus
Salivary Glands
secretes saliva and enzyme amylase.
secretes saliva and enzyme amylase.
Salivary Glands
Liver
filters blood & secretes Bile used to emulsify & digest Fats
filters blood & secretes Bile used to emulsify & digest Fats
Liver
stores bile until needed
Gall Bladder
Gall Bladder
stores bile until needed
Pancreas- 3 functions
Release & control of insulin in the Islets of Langerhans. Controls sugar blood levels
Release digestive enzymes
Produce sodium bicarbonate to convert stomach acid to a basic solution in the duodenum
