The chapter gives an overview of the three major physiological functions of the gastrointestinal system, i.e., are motility, secretion, and digestion/absorption, influencing the fate of nutrition and pharmaceuticals administered into the GI tract.J-M. Sauer...

The gastrointestinal (GI) system comprises the GI tract and accessory organs. The GI tract consists of the oral cavity, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, and anal canal. The accessory organs include the teeth, tongue, and glandular organs such as salivary glands, liv...
The gastrointestinal tract develops from the primitive digestive tube that originates from the dorsal part of the yolk sac. Initially the yolk sac is attached to the midgut of the digestive tube, but as early as the fourth week of gestation the gut becomes distinct from the yolk sac. The yo...
Includes the study of food digestion, absorption, and excretion. The gastrointestinal system is responsible for breaking down food into nutrients that can be absorbed into the bloodstream. Endocrine Physiology. The study of the endocrinesystem. Includes the study of hormones, their secretion, and thei...
Gastrointestinal (GI) physiology is a branch of human physiology addressing the physical function of the gastrointestinal system. The major processes occurring in the GI system are that of motility, secretion, regulation, digestion, and circulation. In anesthesiology, gastric emptying and the time from...
It is a third division of the autonomic nervous system, which functions as a brain in the gut placed in close apposition to the effector systems it controls. The ENS controls the musculature, secretory glands, and blood vasculature of the gastrointestinal tract and organizes the moment-to-moment...

What is the main function of the gastrointestinal (GI) system? The GI system is responsible for the digestion of food, absorption of nutrients, and elimination of waste. Which enzyme is primarily responsible for the breakdown of starch in the mouth? Amylase Where does the majority of nutrient ...
