  1. Non-Ruminant Digestion

  2. What are Non-Ruminants? • Animals with digestive systems that have a simple stomach structure, also called a monogastric system • Most animals are classified as omnivores or carnivores

  3. The Non-Ruminant System Mouth Esophagus Stomach Small Intestine Large Intestine Anus

  4. The Non-Ruminant System • Mouth • Collects and chews feed and vegetation • Teeth • Carnivores • Sharp teeth for tearing and ripping • Omnivores • Sharp teeth and flat molars for tearing and grinding

  5. The Non-Ruminant System • Salivary Glands • Secretes digestive enzymes • Provide lubrication for swallowing

  6. The Non-Ruminant System • Esophagus • Connects mouth to stomach • Unidirectional • Forceful regurgitation may occur in some animals when sick

  7. The Non-Ruminant System • Stomach • Glandular pouch that mixes and churns feed • Secretes gastric juices and enzymes to aid in food particle breakdown

  8. The Non-Ruminant System • Pancreas • Produces and secretes enzymes • Aids in the digestion of carbohydrates and fats • Liver • Lobed reddish brown organ • Produces bile (greenish in color) • Aids in the digestion of fats • Gall Bladder • Storage sac for bile from liver • Secretes bile into small intestine

  9. The Non-Ruminant System • Small Intestine • Secretes intestinal juices • Pale watery substance from the intestinal wall • Protein digestion • Buffers hydrochloric acid from the stomach • Digests and absorbs nutrients

  10. The Non-Ruminant System • Small Intestine Sections • Duodenum • Secretion of intestinal juices, pancreatic enzymes and bile to further digest food • Jejunum • Digestion • Absorption of nutrients • Ileum • Absorption of nutrients

  11. The Non-Ruminant System • Cecum • Non-functioning blind pouch found in-between the small intestine and large intestine • Large Intestine • Absorbs water and adds mucus to undigested feed

  12. The Non-Ruminant System • Rectum • Internal sphincter which controls excretion • Anus • External sphincter which controls excretion

  13. The Non-Ruminant System Large Intestine Small Intestine Anus Pancreas Ileum Stomach Duodenum Salivary Glands Mouth Rectum Jejunum Gall Bladder Esophagus Cecum Liver

  14. Lobed reddish brown organ, produces bile (greenish in color), aids in the digestion of fats

  15. Secretes intestinal juicesdigests and absorbs nutrients

  16. Secretes digestive enzymes provides lubrication for swallowing

  17. Secretion of intestinal juices, pancreatic enzymes and bile to further digest food, 1st section of small intestine

  18. Connects mouth to stomachunidirectional

  19. Glandular pouch that mixes and churns feed, secretes gastric juices and enzymes

  20. Collects and chews feed and vegetation

  21. Produces and secretes enzymes, aids in the digestion of carbohydrates and fats

  22. Who has sharp teeth for tearing and ripping?

  23. Absorbs water and adds mucus to undigested feed

  24. Storage sac for bile from liver, secretes bile into small intestine

  25. Who has sharp teeth and flat molars for tearing and grinding?

  26. Internal sphincter which controls excretion

  27. Absorption of nutrients3rd section of small intestine

  28. Non-functioning blind pouch found in-between the small intestine and large intestine

  29. External sphincter which controls excretion

  30. Digestion and absorption of nutrients2nd section of small intestine
