Human Organ System                     

Digestive System:

  • The system which helps us to take food, digest and absorb it in the body to gain energy is called digestive system.
  • Oral cavity or Buccal Cavity or Mouth or Ingestion:
  • Oral cavity is lined by lips. It contains teeth and tongue.
  • Tongue has taste buds for test and texture.
  • Salivary glands also found in mouth.
  • It also contains enzyme ptlin, which perform digestion of carbohydrates.
  • Oesophagus
  • Foods enter the oesophagus which is a long tube that open in to stomach.
  • Stomach:
  • Breaks down food into a liquid mixture.
  • It walls secrete hydrochloric acid (HCl) and enzyme pepsin.
  • Small Intestine: (Absorption):          
  • It is a long, narrow coiled tube.
  • Its length about six to eight meters
  • Its first part just after stomach is called duodenum which is about 30cm in length.
  • Digestive juice of small intestine is (enzymes) from liver and pancreas meet with semi digested food coming from the stomach.
  • The gallbladder stores bile.
  • The Enzymes completely digest the food.
  • The last part of the small intestine is called Villi. Villi absorb the nutrients (carbohydrates + protein + fates) and allow them in to the blood.
  • Large Intestine:
  • Last part of the digestive system.
  • Undigested food is stored here for some time.           
  • Remaining waste material is out from the body through anus.
  • Liver and pancreas are two glands associative with digestive system.
  • Liver produce bile and pancreas secretes many enzymes.
  • Vitamin k is synthesized in the large intestine by useful bacteria.
  • Digestion is the process in which complex food components are mechanically and chemically broken down into its simple components.
  • When we food broken down by teeth and stomach this process is called mechanical or physical digestion.
  • When different chemicals like enzymes are mixed and reached to every cell of the body is called chemical digestion.           
  • Salivary glands secretion... Ptyalin for Break down starch into small sugar molecules.
  • Stomach secretion……...HCL, pepsin for break down protein into peptides.
  • Liver secretion……………Bile for digest fats.
  • Pancreas secretion………..Pancreatic juice for break down proteins, carbohydrates and fates.

Respiratory System


  • Breathing is the process in which we inhale air through nose and take it in to lungs.
  • The process of taking the air or oxygen (O2) is called Inhalation.
  • The process of removed of air (CO2) is called Exhalation.
  • After the above process oxygen reaches to every cell of the body.
  • Nose:
  • The nose consists of two nostrils.
  • The process of taking the air or oxygen (O2) is called Inhalation.
  • The process of removed of air (CO2) is called Exhalation.
  • After the above process oxygen reaches to every cell of the body.
  • Nose:
  • The nose consists of two nostrils.
  • The mucus glands in the nostrils secrets mucus, which traps dust.
  • Larynx:                      
  • The larynx or sound box is located in the neck.
  • The air from the nose passes through the pharynx in to the trachea.
  • Trachea:                                           
  • The trachea or wind pipe is supported by incomplete cartilaginous rings.
  • Trachea opens in lungs.
  • Bronchi:                     
  • The trachea divides in to two parts before lungs are called bronchi.
  • Each bronchus enters the lungs divide in to small bronchioles. This bronchioles open in the air sacs called alveoli.
  • Lungs:                                                            
  • Lungs consist of about seven hundred million alveoli.     
  • Gases exchanges occurs b/w the air and the blood in the thin wall of alveoli.
  • A very thick muscular membrane, called diaphragm, separates the lungs from the abdominal cavity.
  • The chemical break down of food to release energy is called respiration.
  • The process of breathing oxygen absorb in to the blood reaches the cell. In the mitochondria of the cell oxygen is used to chemically break down (burn) the food.
  • Pneumonia is a series infection of bronchioles and alveoli. The bacteria are the common causes of Pneumonia.
  • Tuberculosis (TB) is caused by the bacterium mycobacterium tuberculosis, which commonly affect the lungs.           
  • Lung cancer: Cancer is defined as an uncontrolled growth and division of cell. These cells gather and form tumors. Cell from the cancer can break away from the original tumor and speared to other parts of the body. This process is called metastasis.
  • 90% of lung cancers due to tobacco use.
