  • Matthias Scheilden and Theodore Schwann: 'All living organisms are made up of cells or the products of the cells. Cells are the fundamental building blocks. New cells are formed through division in the preexisting cells.'

  • Digestive system
    Converts food into its simplest form. Nutrients from food is absorbed in bloodstream in small intestine and carried to cells in the body. The digestive system is a tubular system that extends from mouth to anus.
  • Digestive system components
    • Mouth
    • Pharynx
    • Epiglottis
    • Esophagus
    • Stomach
    • Small intestine
    • Large intestine
  • Accessory digestive organs
    • Teeth
    • Tongue
    • Salivary glands
    • Liver
    • Gallbladder
    • Pancreas
  • Sphincter
    A ring-shaped muscle that relaxes or tightens to open or close a passage or opening in the body
  • Bolus
    Food that is broken down or chewed and swallowed into the pharynx
  • Peristalsis
    The rhythmic contraction of smooth muscle that pushes the bolus down to the stomach
  • Functions of the digestive system
    • Ingestion
    • Secretion
    • Mixing and propulsion
    • Digestion
    • Absorption
    • Defecation
  • Digestive glands of carnivorous plants
    Secrete mucilage, pitcher fluids, acids, and proteins, including digestive enzymes
  • Digestive system of mollusk
    • Composed of a mouth, radula, odontophore, stomach, and anus
    • The radula, with its associated teeth, are responsible for scraping food off surfaces and into the mollusk's mouth
    • Odontophore is the cartilage which underlies and supports the radula, a ribbon of teeth
  • Insect's digestive system
    • A closed system, with one long enclosed coiled tube called the alimentary canal which runs lengthwise through the body
    • The alimentary canal only allows food to enter the mouth, and then gets processed as it travels toward the anus
  • Gastric caeca
    Provide extra surface area for secretion of enzymes or absorption of water
  • Crop
    Insect gut
  • Digestive system of amphibians
    • Has two major components, a digestive tract, and digestive glands
    • The digestive tract starts from the mouth and ends as the anus, emptying into the cloaca
  • Pithing
    A procedure used in laboratories to immobilize a biological specimen, for instance a frog. A needle is inserted through the rear base of the skull and wiggled, destroying the brain. It is relatively painless to the frog.
  • Parts of the digestive system
    • Mouth
    • Stomach
    • Intestines
