four levels of organization
cell
tissue
organ
organ system
group of cells with similar structure and function
tissues
composed of several different tissues that form a structural and functional unit
organs
group of organs that function together to carry out major activities of the body
organ system
accomplished by the organs in the gastrointestinal tract and the other accessory of the digestive organs
digestion
Digestive organs usually divided into two main groups
main digestive organs (gastrointestinal tract)
accessory organs
gastrointestinal tract is also known as
alimentary tract
continuous tube running from the mouth to the anus
gastrointestinal tract
describe the GI pathway
mouth
pharynx
esophagus
stomach
small intestine
large intestine
accessory organs consist of
teeth
tongue
liver
gallbladder
pancreas
determine the parts of the mouth
grade your score accordingly
small row of teeth along the margin of upper jaw
maxillary teeth
pair of grooves on the inner side of the maxillary teeth that receives the lower jaw when the mouth is closed
sulcus marginalis
it is a prominent depression of the sulcus marginalis at the anterior tip of the upper jaw
median substrosal fossa
pair of depression of the sulcus marginalis lateral to the pulvinars
lateral substrosal fossa
pair of low elevations on each side of the median substrosal fossa
pulvinar rostrale
pair of slit-like openings above the eyeballs leading to the external nares
internal nares
other term for internal nares
choanae
two large rounded bulges of the eyeball
eyeball (orbital prominence)
fine teeth projecting from the vomers in between the internal nares
vomerine teeh

anterior or cardiac end
curvature of the stomach on the outer side
greater curvature
curvature of the stomach on the inner side
lesser curvature
curvature of the stomach on the inner side
lesser curvature
suspends the stomach from the dorsal body wall
mesogaster
constriction at the posterior end of the stomach
pyloric end
this is a dark organ located on the left lateral side of the stomach, located part of the lymphatic system
