Anatomy & PhysiologyThe Gastrointestinal (GI) System
Mouth – dentition breaks down food into small enough pieces that enzyme-containing saliva begins breaking down the food (& fluids)
EsophagusStomach – secretes gastric acids to further
breakdown the foodSmall intestine – most of digestion happens
here, the villi and microvilli line the mucosal surface, from which enzymes, acids and proteins are secreted and nutrients are absorbed

And then there’s more…….
Large intestine – water is absorbed and digestive wastes are converted into feces
Sigmoid (pelvic) colon – waste/feces travels through to reach rectum
Rectum – contains vertical folds (each contain an artery and vein), these folds help hold feces in the rectum
Anus – internal sphincter muscles are stimulated by the autonomic nervous system and external sphincter muscles are stimulated by the somatic nervous system
