25
– largest Salivary glands; located at angle of mandible; mumps
Parotid (Salivary glands)
26
- beneath lower jaw; empty saliva at lower teeth
Sub mandibular (Salivary glands)
27
– Salivary glands under/beneath tongue
Sublingual (Salivary glands)
28
– throat; passageway used by both digestive and respiratory
Pharynx
29
trigger or initiate wavelike movement (peristalsis) of food in the digestive systemTell your body to move voice box so food goes down correct pipe
Swallowing:
30
between mouth cavity proper & esophaguspassageway for food from mouth to esophagus
Pharynx
31
- most superior segment of the throuat located above the roof of the mouth; routinely not used in digestive system
Nasopharynx
32
– located directly posterior to mouth cavity; 1st division of throat normally used in digestion system; part can see when say AHHHH!
Oropharynx
33
– mass of food that is chrewed and ready for swallowing
Bolus
34
– most inferior & last division of the throat name because of opening between it & voice box
Laryngophrynx NOTE: only oropharynx and larynx used in digestive system
35
– gulletbetween laryngopharynx and stomach
Esophagus
36
muscular tube (smooth/visceral muscle) which is passageway for food from the throat to the stomach; common site of herniation (body parts protrudes itself into/through body part its not found) where esophagus goes through opening of diaphragm
Esophagus
37
abdomen (epigastric) upper middle region of 9 region
Stomach

Body
41
medial side of stomach
Lesser curvature
42
lateral side of stomach
Greater curvature
43
last division where food passes; pyloric sphincter (circular shape valve that relaxes to allow food to leave stomach
Pyloric
44
innermost layer of stomach; direct contact with food
Mucosa:
45
located under the mucosa
Submucosa:
46
visceral muscle layer of stomach
Muscularis:
47
outermost layer of stomach
Serosa:
48
i. Secrete gastric juice – HCI; highly acidicii. Helps breakdown & soften meatiii. Kills M.O.’s (majority of organism – in food that cause you to be sick)iv. Storage pouch for food
Stomach
49
named by size of opening (lumen); avg 2 ft;entirely with abdominal cavity, upper middle of 9 section region
Small Intestines
50
1st 12in section of small intestines; normally horse shoe shape
Duodenum:
51
2/5 length of small intestines
Jejunum:
52
last & longest division of small intestines; makes up approx. 12 ft
Ileum:
53
secrete intestinal juice; named after German discover
Brunner’s glands:
54
masses of lymphoid tissue used to detect/diagnose tuberculosis
Peyer’s patches:
55
i. Chief organ of digestionii. Chief organ of absorption (transfer of usable soluble substances into the bloodstream for distribution throughout the body)
Small IntestinesNOTE: All usable material is removed in the small intestine
56
named size of opening (lumen) is larger than that of the small intestine
Large Intestines
57
1st division of large intestines, sac-like pouch
Cecum:
58
most of it attached to cecum; snake like; if inflamed emergency surgery considered
Vermiform appendix:
59
longest division of large intestine, often compared to incomplete picture frame
Colon:
60
2nd longest division of colon
Ascending colon:
61
from liver colon goes across stomach
Transverse colon:
62
from spleen colon goes down
Descending colon:
63
colon goes halfway across
Sigmoid colon:
64
last of GI Tract, large intestine, & alimentary canal
Anal canal:
65
i. Expel waste products from the digestive systemii. Maintain proper water balance, if not constipation or diarrhea
Colon
66
i. Produce bile (bitter tasting highly alkaline substance which helps to emulsify/breakdown fats)ii. Detoxification (removal of toxic/poisonous substances
Liver
67
a. Location: abdominal cavity; directly posterior to the liverb. Function: store and thicken bile
Gall Bladder
68
path for bile between liver, gall bladder and duodenum (small intestine)
Biliary Tract

Biliary Tract (Order Used)
70
1st passageway for bile; shift from liver
Hepatic ducts:
71
to & from gall bladder, bile passageway
Cystic duct:
72
1st passageway used after stored & thicken bile has been sent from gall bladder
Common bile duct:
73
last part of bilitary tract; also used by pancress to release useful substance; opens directly into duodenum
Hepato-pancreatic duct:
74
Located directly posterior to stomach
Pancreas
75
