    Anatomy of the Intestines

    Although digestion of proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids may begin in the stomach, it is completed in the intestine. The absorption of nutrients, water, and electrolytes from food and drink also occurs in the intestine. The intestines can be divided into two structurally distinct organs—the small and large intestines.
    Small Intestines
    The small intestine is an ~7 meter-long tube with an inner diameter of just 2.5 cm. Since most nutrients are absorbed here, the inner lining of the small...
    Neural Regulation01:37

    Neural Regulation

    Digestion begins with a cephalic phase that prepares the digestive system to receive food. When our brain processes visual or olfactory information about food, it triggers impulses in the cranial nerves innervating the salivary glands and stomach to prepare for food.
    Regulation of the Digestive System01:25

    Regulation of the Digestive System

    Digestive activity regulation hinges on three primary components. Activation is prompted by a multitude of mechanical and chemical indicators, primarily detected by receptors within the stomach and intestines' walls. These receptors predominantly respond to factors such as mechanical stretching of the organ walls, changes in pH and osmolarity, and the presence of digesting materials and their by-products.
    The effectors in this regulation system are glands and smooth muscles. Activation of these...

    Anatomy of the Gastrointestinal System

    The human digestive system is an intricate and essential network for nutrient absorption and waste elimination. It encompasses the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and several accessory organs.
    Here's a detailed walkthrough of this complex system:

    Physiology of the Gastrointestinal System I: Ingestion and Propulsion

    The physiology of the gastrointestinal system begins with ingestion as food enters the mouth.
    Physiology of the Gastrointestinal System III: Elimination01:26

    Physiology of the Gastrointestinal System III: Elimination

    The gastrointestinal elimination process involves a complex interplay of neural and hormonal mechanisms that coordinate the final waste removal from the body. This intricate operation encompasses the absorption of water and electrolytes, vital for transforming the remaining indigestible food matter into feces. The large intestine is pivotal in water and electrolyte absorption, forming feces from unabsorbed minerals, undigested food, bacteria, bile pigments, and shed epithelial cells. Essential...
