Anatomy #6 (Digestive) Flashcards
Understanding of Digestive system through time
William Bomant - Practiced medicine in northern michagen as the only healthcare persn in the area
He was called to a store where Alex Markete was shot –> there was not enough tissue to covery the hole s Bomant sutured the edges of the hole –> guy lived and the hole healed over
- Hole would be covered when he was not moile but was open when he moved up = could look inside of hole
After surery - St. Marine had a flap develope that was not always closed
What did the hole in Alex markete open into
Hole opened into his stomach
When Bomant sutured he wall of his abdomen and teh wall of his stomach he made a window into the womach
Bomant tried to entice St. Markete to be able to look into his stomach
St. Markete would go away on a bender and when he would come back Bomant would look at the hole in hist stomach –> For the first time they were able to see something in the stocmah changes when we eat food
Bomant experimnte on St. Markete Stomach
Bomant would tie food on a thread and put it into his stomach and pulled it out –> see what changed
Thoughts before Bomant
Before Bomant - peoople thought that there was osmething inherint in food (food would have something that allows it to decompose)
NOW we know that it is the envirnment/things in the body that break down food
Thoughts before Bomant (Experiments)
Before = they did expeirments to see how food is degraed by putting food in a jaw with cloth
They saw the decomposition of food is different if in a uncovered or covered jar = see it is not something in the food itself it is envirnmental factor that chnages food
After Bomant = reserach moved foward
St. Martin + Wife
St.Martin ended up outliving Bomant
At the time - Bomant’s reearch was very big
After Bomant died - Olso contacted his wife to see if they could expeirment on his body but the wife said no
Ciculation in GI (overall)
Blood goes from the Left ventricle –> Aorta –> Thoracis Aorta –> Diaphram –> Absominal Aorta –> (Major vessle that feed sthe gut) –> Blood goes through the gut –> Blood will go through the portal vein –> Liver –> Inferior Vena cava -> Heart
- Gives Oxygen to Digetsive + will pick u nutrients being broken down by GI –> transports it to the liver –> Liver detoxifies and absorbs the nurteinets –> blood goes to the heart
- Digestive has own blood supply + hets oxygen from ciculatory

Digestive system (Overall)
Consists of the Alemantary Canal + Accesroy organs
Alamantary canal
Tubular space that opens up to the outside world at the mouth and the anus
- Has things to provent infection because open to the outside
Tube goes through the whole body (40 Ft long - of surface area)
- Designed so eveyrthing that we eat has the time and the surface area to be broken down to absorb nutrients
Accesory organs in GI
- Pancreus
- Liver
- Gallblader
- Salivary Gland
ALL support the function of digestive/Alemantray canal
- They put things into the Alamntary Canal
1st part of digestion
First part of digestion = Machanical (Chewing/Mastication) + Hydrolisys
- Need to swallow food (Ex. need to be able to have the trahea give way for bolus food)
- Mastication - Chewing allows food to be maulable + increases Surface area (increases in surface area allows cheamals to surround the food better which allows the chemicals to break the food down)
- Hydrolysis - Salivia in mouth (Fluidity + conetnts of saliva = break food down)
Area of storage in Digestive
Gallblader – not producing things
- Bile is made in the liver and goes to the gallbladder for storage
Oral cavity
Mouth is bound by the hard pallet and Soft pallet
- Soft pallet = Uvula (thing dangling in back of mouth) ; soft pallet important in swallowing as a sentinal
- Mucosa of oral cavity and orropharynxs = non-ciliated + Digetsive is not ciliated
- Roof of mouth = Hard pallet ; Posterior = soft pallet
Inferior = have the tonigue (takes up most of space in mouth) + gutter of the mouth)
- Tongue = voice + chewing + swallowing
Space between the tongue + the cheeck + the teeth = vetsibule - food goes into vestible as chew
laterally = have cheecks
Anterior = have lips
Boundery of the mouth
Boundery of the mouth = affects chewing
Chewing - teeth move up and down because the Jaw bone moves + tongue moves the food to keep food positioned in the right place + mouth muscles contract
Muculature of the lateral side of face
- Temeraris mucsle
- Maseter muscle
- Buxinator
- Obicular Oras - controls lips
Temperalis muscle
Goes to the temperal line –> goes to the tendounous formun (tendenos mprtion that goes to the fronal condice of jaw)
When chew + talk = can see the Tmeralis Fire (espcially in bald people)
Maseter mucle
Bone + Master = make up the Jaw line that you can see
- People can have stout maseters = creates a good jaw line
- Goes to underside of zygomatic arch
Buxinator
Important in the movement of food around mouth + compression of the oral cavity
There is a foam pad on the Buzanator - More pronounced in infants
- Helps babies feed - Babies need suction to build = volume of the oral cavity needs to be low to increase pressure = Buxinator foam pad keeps the mouth cavity small to increase pressure
Flexibility of the mouth
Flexibility of the mouth is usually low
Story - Disey Galespy (Jazz person) –> Cheecks were very extended out –> developed circle breathing
- Bretah out of respirtory like normal and take air in and as breath in they can continue to let chect vcavity relax as they bretah in
- He oulwd take air in –> make resiviror of air in mouth –> muscle would relax and push air ut and could miantain note as he also breathed in through nose
- He closed false vocal cords to do this - to make resvior indepent = could play while breathing in
Fill mouth with air and let recoil tendon of ucle of mouth = move air out ; breath in through nose = can play note for a long time
Shows importnace of mouth in breathing
Teeth (Overall)
32 Adult teeth (16 per jaw)
3rd molars = can cause an issue –> very far back in jaw
Molar = for grinding (humans don’t use as much = don’t need 3rd molars = can take them out)
Canine = For ripping
Ensziers (at the front) = for ensizing
Wisdom teeth
Teeth can come in so the towards the other molars –> causes crwoding in the lower midsizers because the wisdom teth can push in
40% of people habe wisdom teeth extracted by 20-30
Oral surgury for wisdom teeth = more advancd
- Before it was more complicated - many peope got dry sockets + infection + bleeding
Surface of the tongue
Surface of the tongue = rough Have different Types of papilae (raised areas of the tongue)
Papillae Function - House nerve endings for taste (sensory organs = taste buds)
Concical Papilae
Filaform papillae at the front
- Supplied sensation by the facial nerve
Have Fungiforum paillar in middle
- Supplied sensation by the facial nerve
Vallet papilarr = in back
- Supplied sensation by the glossophyrngeal
Areas of the tongue
Taste different things in different areas of the tongue
Taste + Smell
Story - Rini sense of smell has decreased over time = it is harder for him to taste
- Doesn’t taste well - instead he tastes the sensation of flavors (sensation of salty or sweet but not tasting flavor)
Smell is tied to the sense of taste
- Decrease sense of smell = can’t distiguish flavors well
- Taste = Olfactory + Sensory perception
Salivary Glands
- Parotoid Gland
- Submandbular Gland/Duct
- Sublingular Gland
Paratoid Gland
- Parotoid Gland = biggest salivary glands
- Opens abive ipper second molar
- When olfactory or eating causes salivation = saliva dumos from the paratoid gand to oral cavity
Clincal - People can get stones in tha Patroid Gland = gland gets blocked (painful)
- Can get the stone removed
- Gland can also get infection
- Dentists = do sweep of the mouth + makes sure nothing is weird in mouth
Submandbular Gland/Duct
Under the Ramus of the jaw
Can palpate it
Sublingular Gland
On the floor of the mouth under tongue
1st line of digestion
Chewing + Saliva
Saliva = has Tyline = starch degrader
- IF take a salitine and just put in mouth it would dissolve ebcause teh Tyline breaks down strach
Salivary Gland (Picture #2)
Paratoid duct - across from second molar on outside of vestibule at the top is fenetration that open paratoid duct
- Where the Paratoid duct dumps saliva in
See Fimbriated Fold = Fold under the tongue - sheet of tissue under tongue
Sublingual ducts - ducts were tongue meets the floor of the mouth
- Sublugual glands have a row of fenetrations - opening of ducts for sublinual gland
Submandibular ducts (come out in renulum - Typically closed when saliva is released
- People shoot Saliva out –> point tongue and move frenum to open mandibular and to eject saliva out
Swallowing Steps
- Buccinator compresses cheecks = oral cavity gets smaller
- Tongue + hyoid bone + thyroid cartildge raise and food is pushed backwards from the mouth into the pharynx
- Larynx goes up
- Several muscles act at once to narrowing the opeing between the mouth and the pharync ; soft pallet elvates which closes off the nasopahrync and prevents the backflow of food or liquid into the nasal cavity
- Mucles contract in a way to close off nasal cavity (don’t want food going to nasal cavity)
- People can chose = get food in Eustaton tibe = get food in cilitaed mucus in tube
- Tonguge and Hyoid bone elvates which causes the epiglotis and the laryngeal inlet to elevate –> food passes over the anterior surface of the epiglotus into the largypharynx
- Epiglotis flaps back and allows food to go to the esophogus + make sure food is not going to the trachea
- Food is propelled int and down the esopgafus by constrictor muscles + gravity helps move food to esophogus
Midsaigital section + chewing
Tongue - puts food to back of
See epiglotus
See opening to Eustacian
Talking + Swallow
If talk and swallow = messes up system because talking requires different movements
Breathing and swallowing at the same time = body doesn’t know what to do = get fluid in airway
- Fluid into airway = have strong refelx –. cough so you get air out forfully with vasalvels manuver = removing fluid away from airway
- People can inhale food (example - lobster roll competition -> guy chocked –> governer of maschusets did hymlic)
Hylmlic Manuver
Hylic is not good fro self selaing things (Ex. penut butter)
If get too much peanut butter in the airway –> try to cough it out = blows open a hole in the peanut butter = hole opens whe breath out and closes when breath in
