Structure and Function of the Human Digestive System By Caitlin Ong Organs of the Digestive System Mouth Structure: The mouth consists of the upper and lower jaw‚ that contain gums which hold teeth‚ the roof of the mouth is the palate and the tongue occupies the floor of the mouth. The salivary glands have ducts that open in the mouth. Function: The mouth is where the first step of digestion begins. Known as mechanical digestion‚ this involves chewing with your teeth to break the food

Cardiovascular System Anatomy & Physiology The heart is the pump responsible for maintaining adequate circulation of oxygenated blood around the vascular network of the body. It is a four-chamber pump‚ with the right side receiving deoxygenated blood from the body at low presure and pumping it to the lungs (the pulmonary circulation) and the left side receiving oxygenated blood from the lungs and pumping it at high pressure around the body (the systemic circulation). The myocardium (cardiac

A journey of a sausage roll through the digestive system A sausage roll is made up of puff pastry and sausage meat. The pastry is made up of carbohydrates‚ fat and a very small amount of protein‚ the sausage meat is made up of fat‚ and a small amount of carbohydrates and protein. Caloriecount (2015) Donaldrussell (2015) Mouth/Teeth Anatomyeshs (2015) I am a sausage roll even before you eat me‚ when you smell me‚ see me‚ or think about me‚ digestion begins. Saliva begins to form in your mouth.

A removal process consisting of absorption‚ desorption‚ heat exchangers and auxiliary equipment is shown in Figure 10. Absorption is traditionally performed in a column with plates‚ random packing or structured packing. CO2 containing gas flows upwards and the absorption liquid flows downwards. The solvent (rich amine) is pumped further through a heat exchanger to a separation column. The absorbed CO2 is regenerated in a separation (stripper) column. Heat is added to the reboiler and a condenser

ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY OF THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM The primary function of the respiratory system is to supply the blood with oxygen in order for the blood to deliver oxygen to all parts of the body. The respiratory system does this through breathing. When we breathe‚ we inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. This exchange of gases is the respiratory system’s means of getting oxygen to the blood. Respiration is achieved through the mouth‚ nose‚ trachea‚ lungs‚ and diaphragm. Oxygen enters the

Beny Beans Journey of the Digestive System By Riley Trachtenberg Ahhhh! Before I could believe it I was being chewed up by wired teeth. The salivary glands made me all soft and moist. I was formed into a bolus like my Italian meatball friends. I looked at my other bean friends and they all looked terrified. While going down the esophagus it felt like we were going down the Drop of Doom. The peristalsis propelled us down the esophagus and into the stomach

Anatomy and Physiology of Respiratory System Overview Cells in the body require oxygen to survive. Vital functions of the body are carried out as the body is continuously supplied with oxygen. Without the respiratory system exchange of gases in the alveoli will not be made possible and systemic distribution of oxygen will not be made possible. Thetransportation of oxygen in the different parts of the body is accomplished by the blood of the cardiovascular system. However‚ it is the respiratory
