    When ever I think of retracing the path that food takes throughout the body I instantly think of a Magic School Bus episode. The first part of digestion would be as soon as you use your sense of smell, which triggers your salivary glands to secrete saliva. Once you take your first bite, your saliva increases even more. You then break down the food by chewing. Even more saliva is produced so your body can absorb it. The next step is the going through the pharynx and esophagus. The throat, also know as the pharynx branches off into the esophagus, which carries the food from the throat to the stomach. Your tongue and roof of mouth are in charge of pushing the food into your throat. The esophagus is the extending tube that pushes foo through to the stomach. The contractions are called peristalsis. Right before the opening of the stomach is the lower esophageal sphincter. It allows food to pass into the stomach and closes it to make sure it does not come back up. The next stops are the stomach and the small intestine. The stomach’s muscular walls hold, mix, and grind food. It secretes acid that continues to break down your food. The food then moves to the small intestine, non-liquid remains are released from the stomach and continue through the intestines to be removed completely. The duodenum, jejunum, and ileum are the three parts that make up the intestine. They all break down food using enzymes from the pancreas and bile from the liver. In the intestine is where the body receives the most nutrients. After all the nutrients are absorbed by the small intestine, the large intestine moves what is left to the large bowel or colon. The colon is a 5 to 7 foot long tube connecting the small intestine to the rectum. The waste or stool left over from digestion passes through the colon as first a liquid form then a solid form. It usually takes 36 hours…

    1. The Nine body regions and their locations are as follows, starting at the 12 o’clock position of the body in the anatomical position, above the subcostal plane is the Epigastrium, running below the sternum to just above the belly button. Continuing clockwise becomes the Left Hypochondrium just below the nipple down the left side of the body to a line just above the bellybutton again. Below the subcostal plane, Left hypochondrium is the left lumbar region running down to just above the hip bone. Below the left lumbar region is the left iliac fossa for a short period down into pelvic area. Continuing clockwise is the hypogastric region below belly button, and on to the right iliac fossa. At about the 9 o’clock area of the body is the right lumbar region and up into the right hypochondrium. In the middle of the body and surrounding the bellybutton is the Umbilical region.…

    Many terms are used to describe the human body and its various positions when being observed, studied or referred to in any medical discussion. Using these terms makes it easier to explain the different parts of the body and where they are located. When using these terms we are assuming the body is in a position called the anatomical position. The anatomical position refers to the body being in a standing position with the arms at the sides with the palms, feet and head facing forward. The two other positions also used as reference are supine position and prone position. Supine position refers to the body lying face upward while the prone position refers to the body laying face downward. Using the anatomical position as a reference it helps define and give meaning to the different directional terms that are used to describe the body parts and their position in or on the body.…

    The protective lining that covers internal organs of the body is very important. It acts as the 'skin' that keeps the organs protected from unwanted infiltration, excess acids and other hazards. This layer is called the mesothelium. The mesothelium is a very sensitive layer, but also very strong. The mesothelium develops from the embryonic stages of man, and is used to line up the important body cavities in order that they may produce fluids that between the cells provide a slippery protection and fluid transport between the wall muscles.…

    Next we have the body planes and directional terms. A plane is an imaginary line drawn through the body or organ to separate into specific sections. There are three different types of planes, the transverse plane also known as the horizontal plane, the median plane and the coronal plane. The transverse plane divides the body into two sections top (superior) and bottom (inferior). This is also known as cross sectioning. The median plane or the mid-sagittal plane divides the body into right and left halves. The term medial refers to body parts located near the middle…
