Human Digestive system includes Gastrointestinal Tract and other accessory parts like the liver, intestines, glands, mouth, stomach, gallbladder. There are 6 main functions of the Human Digestive System Process: Ingestion, Motility, Secretion, Digestion, Absorption, Excretion. The food that you eat gives you not only the required energy and nutrients to the body but also is used for cell growth and repair.
Digestive System Process:
From the Mouth to the Large Intestine and Anus. The Human digestive system process can be divided into stages, namely:
Ingestion
Motility
Secretion
Digestion
Absorption
Excretion
The whole process starts in the oral cavity, where the saliva from the salivary glands mixes with the food and starts to begin the breakdown of food. From the mouth, the food passes to the hollow tube-like organ the esophagus. From the esophagus, food then travels to the stomach, where it breaks down further with the help of the acids and powerful enzymes secreted by the stomach.
This semi-digested food then travels down to the small intestine, where secretions from the liver, gallbladder, and pancreas further act on the food particles. The small intestine is divided into three parts called the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. Most of the digestion takes place here in the small intestine, where absorption also occurs. Once most of the absorption of water and digested nutrients is completed in the small intestine, the remaining waste products move to the large intestine. The large intestine divides into appendix, caecum, colon, and rectum. The faecal matter from the large intestine comes out through the anus.
