Digestive System Flow Chart

Left Side Assignment

Anatomy 112

Procedure:

  1. Divide your paper in ½.
  2. On one half of the paper, create a flow chart of the flow of food through all primary organs and sphincters using the following guidelines:
  • If there is no food digestion in the organ/sphincter, use black
  • If there is carbohydrate digestion only in the organ/sphincter, write its name in blue
  • If there is protein digestion only in the organ/sphincter, use green to shade lightly over its name
  • If there is lipid digestion in the organ/sphincter, use red to put a star near the name of the organ
  • Include all parts of the small intestine
  • Include all parts of the large intestine
  1. On the other half of the paper, create a table that meets the following guidelines:
  2. In the first column, list the primary organs where chemical digestion takes place (one row for each organ).
  3. In the second column, list the enzymes present that breakdown carbohydrates. If there are no enzymes present in this organ that breakdown carbohydrates, use NONE.
  4. In the third column, list the enzymes present that breakdown proteins. If there are no enzymes present in this organ that breakdown proteins, use NONE.
  5. In the fourth column, list the enzymes present that breakdown lipids. If there are no enzymes present in this organ that breakdown lipids, use NONE
  6. In the fifth column, list the accessory organ that assists the primary organ. If there are no accessory organs that assist the primary organ, list NONE.
