Chyme
Swallowing
Deglution
Chewing
Mastication
Wave of muscle contractions along a tube
Peristalsis
Breaking up of fats into smaller particles to make a soluble in water
Emulsification
Elimination of wastes from rectum
Defecation
Mixing movements of the small intenstine
Segmentation
Irritation of the esophagus by HCL from stomach acid
Heartburn
Sac like punches formed in weak spots in the GI tract; may become infected
Diverticulitis
Varicose veins of rectum and and anus
Hemorrhoids
Inflammation of the colon and rectum
Colitis
Inflammation of the appendix
Appendicitis
Tooth decay
Caries
Scarred liver from chronic inflammation
Cirrhosis
Viral information of the liver: usual cause if fecal contamination
Hepatitis A
Viral inflammation of the liver which can lead to cirrhosis
Hepatitis B
The most important function of the large intestine
Absorb water
The teeth adapted for cutting
Incisors
Bile and pancreatic fluid act upon foods here
Small intestine
The place of greatest digestive activity
Small intestine
The major teeth for crushing
Molars
The organ that secrets bile
Liver
Villi are located in this organ
Small intestine
Structure that stores bile from the liver
Gall bladder
Absorption of digested food occurs largely in this organ
Small intestine
All organs through which food passes in the digestive system
Gastrointestinal
Breaking down food molecules to a size which is easily absorbed
Digestion
Bile is essential in the digestion of this nutrient
Lipids (fats)
The number of permanent teeth in a full adult set
32
Organs that help in diversion but ending food does not pass through
Accessory
The end products that come from the digestion of fats

Organ that helps maintain blood sugar level,detoxify substances and store vitamin
Liver
Organ that temporary stores food, destroys many microbes and chemically digests some foods
Stomach
The anterior roof of the mouth
Hand palate
This digestion involves mastication of food by teen and churning of food by the stomach and small intestine
Mechanical
The palate, the cheeks and the tongue form the boundaries of this cavity
Oral
Hangs from the free order of the soft palate
Uvula
Substance that keeps the mouth and pharynx moist, begins the chemical breakdown of food and has ducts as it’s means of transport
Saliva
The basic “building blocks” of proteins which are the form needed by body cells
Amino acids
Results from the reversal of peristalsis
Vomiting
Intestinal structure responsible for the absorption of water, glucose, and amino acid
Villi
Glands that empty their secretions directly into the blood stream
Endocrine
Salivary amylase acts in this major nutrient
Carbohydrate
Carbohydrate digestion is started but its enzyme
Salivary amylose
Bile and pancreatic fluid act upon foods here
Small intestine
Folds of the stomach
Rugae
Protein digestion begins here
Stomach
The organ that chyme flows into from the stomach
Small intestine
Nutrient are carried by his vessel from the GI tract to the lover
Hepatic portal vein
The first section if the large intestine
Cecum
Portion of the large intestine before the rectum
Sigmoid colon
A membrane that anchors the intestine to the posterior body wall
Peritoneum
Stomach cells that secrete digestive enzyme
Gastric glands
