Digestive System: Part I
(Part II will cover the 4 glands: Salivary, Pancreas, Liver, & Gall bladder)
The digestive system is a system of connecting tubes in the body, from the mouth to the anus. 
- Cells that make up digestive tract & their function
- How these cells, tissues, structures, & organs work in digestion
- Unique features of different organs, regions, & structures in the digestive system
- Pathology of structures

The outer layer is either a serosa or adventitia depending on whether it is touching anything or not.
- Serosa: Within the peritoneal cavity
- Adventitia: touching another organ in the posterior abdominal wall (retroperitoneal)

- Very vascular, will have Meissner's corpuscles
- Oral part
- The part that touches your teeth
- No more keratin
- Will have mucous glands
- Palates
- Hard Palate
- Stratified squamous with keratin
- Soft Palate
- Will have 2 epitheliums depending on which side: mouth or nose side
- Mouth side
- stratified squamous
- Nose side
- pseudostratified squamous with cilia & goblet cells
- Tonsils
- Teeth
- Odontoblasts make dentin
- Ameloblasts make enamel
- No way to regenerate more enamel
- Tongue
- Filiform Papillae
- General sense (sensory nerve)
- Anterior 2/3 tongue = cordi tympani innerv. this base
- Foliate Papillae
- Fungiform Pappilae
- Taste buds
- Circumvallate Papillae
- Form the line you see towards the back of your tongue
- Line marks the anterior 2/3 & posterior 1/3 of tongue
- Collects food particles (via collecting the saliva)
- Taste buds (see above)
- Salivary Glands

- Stomach
- Has rugae to allow stomach to stretch

- Fundic stomach
- Pyloric stomach
- Small Intestine

- increases surface area for food absorption and adding digestive secretions
- Has 3 parts
- Duodenum
- (Jejunum--hard to tell)
- Ileum
- (Appendix)
- "Blind-ending sac"
- Will see crypts in the lamina propria
- Will see lymph nodules in the submucosae
