Anatomy and Physiology of the Digestive Tract
Mouth Where teeth, tongue, and salivary glands begin food digestion
Pharynx Muscular structure shared by the digestive and respiratory tracts It joins the mouth and nasal passages to the esophagus
Esophagus Long muscular tube that passes through the diaphragm into the
stomach
Stomach Churns and mixes food with gastric secretions until a semiliquid
mass called chyme

Anatomy and Physiology of the Digestive Tract
Small intestine Chemical digestion and absorption of nutrients
take place Approximately 20 feet long and consists of
three sections: the duodenum, the jejunum, and the ileum
Liver and pancreatic secretions enter the digestive tract in the duodenum
![Page 5: GASTROINTESTINAL NURSING Digestive Tract Disorders 2013.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061609/551bd449550346be588b5681/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Anatomy and Physiology of the Digestive Tract
Large intestine and anus The first section of the large intestine is the cecum Ascending colon goes up right side of the
abdomen Transverse colon crosses abdomen just below
waist Descending colon goes down left side of abdomen The last 6 to 8 inches of the large intestine is the
rectum, which ends at the anus, where wastes leave the body

Age-Related Changes Teeth are mechanically worn down with age The jaw may be affected by osteoarthritis A significant loss of taste buds with age Xerostomia (dry mouth) is common Walls of esophagus and stomach thin with aging, and
secretions lessen Production of hydrochloric acid and digestive enzymes
decreases Gastric motor activity slows Movement of contents through the colon is slower Anal sphincter tone and strength decrease
