Food reception
Mastication Teeth
Incisors, canines (55 lb, cutting and tearing) Premolars and molars (200 lb, grinding)
Grind and breakdown food Stimulate saliva production Mix food with saliva

Process of deglutition

Esophagus Upper sphincter
Ensures breathing commences Lower sphincter
Prevents acid reflux (heartburn)
Food passage takes about 9 seconds

Stomach Anatomy
Cardiac sphincter

Stomach
Motor functions Receptive relaxation Food storage (1.5 L) Gastric peristalsis Slow emptying

Gastric motility Slow waves and spike potentials
![Page 8: Human Anatomy and Physiology Transport and mixing of food in the alimentary tract.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052603/56649e4f5503460f94b473f4/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Regulation of gastric motility
1. Stomach i. Volume of chyme
Smooth muscle excitability ii. Presence of protein
Gastrin release from antral mucosa
![Page 9: Human Anatomy and Physiology Transport and mixing of food in the alimentary tract.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052603/56649e4f5503460f94b473f4/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Regulation of gastric motility
2. Duodenum i. Distention of the duodenum ( ) ii. Acidity of duodenal chyme ( ) iii. Presence of protein, sugars and fats cause
hormones to be released from duodenal mucosa (gastric inhibitory peptide GIP, secretin)

Small intestine Mixing and propulsive contractions
combined (segmentation)

Control of motility in small intestine
Neural: slow waves Hormonal
Up-regulatory: gastrin, CCK, secretin, insulin Down-regulatory: glucagon

Ileocecal valve
Function Prevent backward flow
Operation Opens upon pressure

Large Intestine
Motility Rhythmical: every 30 minutes Mass movement: coincides with ileum
contraction (follows a meal)

Defecation Contraction of abdominal wall musculature and lowering of
diaphragm places pressure on colon wall. External and internal sphincters open (nervous system)
