Essential Questions
•What life process?
•How do human carry out this life process?
•What happens to the foods we eat?
•How do nutrients get into our blood stream?

What is nutrition???
•Organisms obtain preformed organic compounds from environment (ingestion, digestion, and egestion)• “You are what you eat!”• Your body grows rapidly, the food
you eat provides the material your body needs to build cells, tissues, and organs….
![Page 4: Human Nutrition. Essential Questions What life process? How do human carry out this life process? What happens to the foods we eat? How do nutrients get](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e165503460f94b00d3a/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
7 Groups of Nutrients
1. Carbohydrates energy sources; can be broken down to enter the cell
2. Lipids produce ATP, must be broken down to enter cell
3. Proteins- must be broken down to enter cells (growth & repair)
4. Vitamins small enough to be absorbed by cells without being broken down
5. Minerals
6. Water
7. Roughage-materials body cannot digest; mostly complex carbs (cellulose, fiber, fruits & veggies); serves to push food through large intestine (egestion)

2 Types of Digestion1. Mechanical-
No chemical changes occur
Increase surface area exposed for chemical digestion
Occurs in mouth and stomach
food is broken into smaller pieces by cutting, grinding, or tearing
![Page 6: Human Nutrition. Essential Questions What life process? How do human carry out this life process? What happens to the foods we eat? How do nutrients get](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e165503460f94b00d3a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Chemical- “hydrolysis”Large molecules are changed chemically to
smaller molecules Complex carbs (disaccharides/polysaccharides) broken
down to Lipids broken down to Protein broken down to
simple sugars (monosaccharides)
3 fatty acids & 1 glycerol
amino acids

Human Digestive System
Continuous 1 way tract with accessory organs
Food moves through the system by peristalsis (wave-like muscular contractions)- Peristalsis Video
A trip through your digestive tract takes about 18-20 hours.

Parts of the Digestive System1. Oral Cavity (mouth) (digestion begins approx 1 min)
Ingestion occurs Contains teeth and tongue for mechanical digestion Salivary glands produce saliva which contains amylase that
digests starch during chemical digestion2. Pharynx (throat)
Passageway from mouth to esophagus

Parts of the Digestive System3. Esophagus (1 min)• Food tube; connects throat to stomach• No digestion here• Swallowing initiates peristalsis • Epiglottis- flap over trachea (wind pipe) which closes
when you swallow, prevents choking, inhalation of food/fluids
![Page 12: Human Nutrition. Essential Questions What life process? How do human carry out this life process? What happens to the foods we eat? How do nutrients get](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e165503460f94b00d3a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
4. Cardiac Sphincter-• muscle that controls the opening from esophagus to stomach
(“heartburn”)
![Page 13: Human Nutrition. Essential Questions What life process? How do human carry out this life process? What happens to the foods we eat? How do nutrients get](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e165503460f94b00d3a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Parts of the Digestive System
5. Stomach- thick walled muscular organ Mechanical digestion occurs when the stomach
grinds food.
Chemical digestion occurs here: Lining secretes HCl and pepsin Proteins begin digestion here (protease) Pyloric glands secrete mucus so stomach doesn’t digest
itself! Chyme- the soupy liquid formed from digestion of solids
![Page 14: Human Nutrition. Essential Questions What life process? How do human carry out this life process? What happens to the foods we eat? How do nutrients get](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e165503460f94b00d3a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Chemical Digestion in the StomachUlcer-
•Digestion in the stomach occurs for 2-6 hours for solid foods.
when the mucus layer breaks down, causing sores caused by bacteria (Helicobacter pylori), stress, diet; may bleed

Parts of the Digestive System
7. Small Intestine- “small” refers to diameter, not length • 6.5m long, 2.5cm in diameter
• Partially digested food from stomach goes to the small intestine
• Most digestion occurs here (not stomach)
• All digestion is completed here
![Page 18: Human Nutrition. Essential Questions What life process? How do human carry out this life process? What happens to the foods we eat? How do nutrients get](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e165503460f94b00d3a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Small Intestine
• Absorption of nutrients occurs in the small intestine!!!• Lined with villi (fingerlike projections
that increase surface area for absorption)• Capillaries absorb glucose, amino
acids• Lacteals absorb: lipid end products
(fatty acid, glycerol)- part of lymphatic system
![Page 19: Human Nutrition. Essential Questions What life process? How do human carry out this life process? What happens to the foods we eat? How do nutrients get](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e165503460f94b00d3a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

8. Pancreas
produces and secretes pancreatic juices Into the small intestine.
• Aids in chemical digestion
•Uses several enzymes:amylase, protease, lipase
![Page 21: Human Nutrition. Essential Questions What life process? How do human carry out this life process? What happens to the foods we eat? How do nutrients get](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e165503460f94b00d3a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
9. Gall Bladder• Stores Bile made by the liver• Aids in chemical digestion• Bile aids in preparing fats for digestion.

10. Liver Liver produces bile – emulsifies fats (stored in the gall
bladder
Aids in mechanical and chemical digestion
Liver is the body’s largest internal organ

Digestive Enzymes • Intestinal Enzymes-• Pancreatic Enzymes- (dumped into small intestine)
• Liver produces bile (stored in the gall bladder) which emulsifies fats• Fat globules are broken down to smaller fat globules
through mechanical digestion to increase surface area for chemical digestion
• Gall stones:
maltase, protease, lipaseamylase, protease, lipase
hard cholesterol deposits accumulated in gall bladder

• Once absorbed by the small intestine, the body can use these nutrients for:• Energy• Synthesis• Assimilation• It takes approximately 12 hours for food to
travel through the small intestine!

Large Intestine
11. Large Intestine (colon) 1.5m long, 6cm diameter Water absorbed from waste too much absorbed= too little absorbed= Undigested food forced out through anus by peristalsis, these
wastes are called
It takes 3-4 hours for food to pass through the large intestine. FYI: The appendix= small pouch where large and small intestine
join- has NO FUNCTION!
constipation diarrhea
feces

Disruption of HomeostasisTopic: Heterotrophic NutritionMode of Disruption Malfunction Description
Inheritance Lactose intolerance Inability to digest diary products (lactose) b/c you lack the enzyme lactase; results in intestinal distress
Toxic Substances Food poisoning: caused by bacteria such as E. coli & salmonella
Toxins released by bacteria cause intestinal distress & kidney disease
Poor Nutrition Deficiency diseases: scurvy, rickets, & goiter
Lack of a vitamin or mineral in diet. Results in poor general health- need to supplement diet.

Disruption of HomeostasisTopic: Heterotrophic NutritionMode of Disruption Malfunction Description
Organ Function Gall StonesConstipation/ Diarrhea
-Accumulation of hardened cholesterol, results in disruption of bile secretion-Too little or too much water in diet
Personal Behavior Eating Disorders:-anorexia-bulimia
- Robs your body of essential nutrients, leads to poor general health, ulcers, and death
Infectious Disease Tapeworm (contracted when we ingest larva in uncooked or undercooked meat- if the animal had tapeworm)
-Worm grows in intestinal tract -Robs your body of nutrients-Leads to deficiency diseases
