The Function And Structure Of The Digestive System
< < < The Changes Of Menopause
The digestive system is a complex set of organs designed for the absorption and assimilation of nutrients and the extraction of energy of food particles. It is comprised of 10 organs that work together toward this goal.
The mouth: Food enters the digestive system through the mouth, where it is chewed and broken into smaller particles. Saliva moistens the food, and the tongue exercises until a bolus is formed and then swallowed.
The esophagus: The bolus enters the esophagus and is transferred into the stomach.
The stomach: In the stomach, hydrochloric acids digest the food particles, breaking them down into more manageable sizes. The liquid mixture that results is called chyme.
The small intestine: Once in the small intestine, the small particles of nutrients in the chyme are absorbed through small vessels. As the intestines go through peristalsis (a series of contractions that help the chyme move down the digestive tract), the food is broken down even more.
The pancreas: At the same time, the pancreas secretes substances into the intestine, counterracting the acidic nature of the stomach liquids. These also aid in the digestion of fat molecules into more manageable fatty acids, also breaking down sugars and proteins into their respective building blocks.
The liver:In the liver, bile is produced to emulsify fat into a more manageable molecule size. As it's treated by the liver, the food is removed of harmful substances and toxins.
Large intestine: Once in the large intestine, the undigested food is treated. It's at this stage that any surplus water is reabsorbed into the system. The resulting residue enters the rectum for elimination.
The kidneys: These are also essential in the detoxification of substances in the body, where blood is filtered and purified from any harmful substances. The waste that remains of said filtering is passed on into the bladder as urine for elimination.

The maturity phase carries on starting at childhood as the person works through puberty, teenage and so on. At this time the body and minds starts to decline. As the person reaches mid-age or moves into advanced aging, the person starts to decline its natural physical functions.
Aging alone starts as we are born and carries throughout our life. Through the process, the body has positive reflections on our bodily components and development, yet as we age negative effects take fold, which include the declining phase.

At one time people 65 and older where considered the aged, yet today people are working further on than 65 years of age.
