1. Essentials of Human Anatomy & Physiology Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slides 14.70 – 14.92 Seventh Edition Elaine N. Marieb Chapter 14 The Digestive System and Body Metabolism Lecture Slides in PowerPoint by Jerry L. Cook

3. Metabolism Slide 14.67 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Chemical reactions necessary to maintain life  Catabolism – substances are broken down to simpler substances  Anabolism – larger molecules are built from smaller ones  Energy is released during catabolism

4. Carbohydrate Metabolism Slide 14.68 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  The body’s preferred source to produce cellular energy (ATP)  Glucose (blood sugar) is the major breakdown product and fuel to make ATP Figure 14.16

5. Cellular Respiration Slide 14.69 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Oxygen-using events take place within the cell to create ATP from ADP  Carbon leaves cells as carbon dioxide (CO 2 )  Hydrogen atoms are combined with oxygen to form water  Energy produced by these reactions adds a phosphorus to ADP to produce ATP  ATP can be broken down to release energy for cellular use

6. Metabolic Pathways Involved in Cellular Respiration Slide 14.70a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Glycolysis – energizes a glucose molecule so that it can be split into two pyruvic acid molecules and yield ATP

7. Metabolic Pathways Involved in Cellular Respiration Slide 14.70b Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Figure 14.17

8. Metabolic Pathways Involved in Cellular Respiration Slide 14.71 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Krebs cycle  Produces virtually all the carbon dioxide and water resulting from cell respiration  Yields a small amount of ATP

9. Metabolic Pathways Involved in Cellular Respiration Slide 14.72a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Electron transport chain  Hydrogen atoms removed during glycolysis and the Krebs cycle are delivered to protein carriers  Hydrogen is split into hydrogen ions and electrons in the mitochondria  Electrons give off energy in a series of steps to enable the production of ATP Figure 14.18

11. Fat Metabolism Slide 14.73 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Handled mostly by the liver  Use some fats to make ATP  Synthesize lipoproteins, thromboplastin, and cholesterol  Release breakdown products to the blood  Body cells remove fat and cholesterol to build membranes and steroid hormones

12. Use of Fats for ATP Synthesis Slide 14.74 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Fats must first be broken down to acetic acid  Within mitochondira, acetic acid is completely oxidized to produce water, carbon dioxide, and ATP

13. Protein Metabolism Slide 14.75a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Proteins are conserved by body cells because they are used for most cellular structures  Ingested proteins are broken down to amino acids

14. Protein Metabolism Slide 14.75b Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Cells remove amino acids to build proteins  Synthesized proteins are actively transported across cell membranes  Amino acids are used to make ATP only when proteins are overabundant or there is a shortage of other sources

15. Production of ATP from Protein Slide 14.76 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Amine groups are removed from proteins as ammonia  The rest of the protein molecule enters the Krebs cycle in mitochondria  The liver converts harmful ammonia to urea which can be eliminated in urine

16. Role of the Liver in Metabolism Slide 14.77 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Several roles in digestion  Detoxifies drugs and alcohol  Degrades hormones  Produce cholesterol, blood proteins (albumin and clotting proteins)  Plays a central role in metabolism

17. Metabolic Functions of the Liver Slide 14.78 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Glycogenesis  Glucose molecules are converted to glycogen  Glycogen molecules are stored in the liver  Glycogenolysis  Glucose is released from the liver after conversion from glycogen  Gluconeogenesis  Glucose is produced from fats and proteins

19. Metabolic Functions of the Liver Slide 14.79 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Figure 14.20

20. Metabolic Functions of the Liver Slide 14.80 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Fats and fatty acids are picked up by the liver  Some are oxidized to provide energy for liver cells  The rest are broken down into simpler compounds and released into the blood

21. Cholesterol Metabolism Slide 14.81 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Functions of cholesterol  Serves as a structural basis of steroid hormones and vitamin D  Is a major building block of plasma membranes  Most cholesterol is produced in the liver and is not from diet

22. Cholesterol Transport Slide 14.82 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Cholesterol and fatty acids cannot freely circulate in the bloodstream  They are transported by lipoproteins (lipid-protein complexes)  Low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) transport to body cells  High-density lilpoproteins (HDLs) transport from body cells to the liver

23. Nutrition Slide 14.63 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Nutrient – substance used by the body for growth, maintenance, and repair  Categories of nutrients  Carbohydrates  Lipids  Proteins  Vitamins  Mineral  Water

24. Dietary Sources of Major Nutrients Slide 14.64 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Carbohydrates  Most are derived from plants  Exceptions: lactose from milk and small amounts of glycogens from meats  Lipids  Saturated fats from animal products  Unsaturated fats from nuts, seeds, and vegetable oils  Cholesterol from egg yolk, meats, and milk products

25. Dietary Sources of Major Nutrients Slide 14.65 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Proteins  Complete proteins – contain all essential amino acids  Most are from animal products  Legumes and beans also have proteins, but are incomplete  Vitamins  Most vitamins are used as cofactors and act with enzymes  Found in all major food groups

26. Dietary Sources of Major Nutrients Slide 14.66 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Minerals  Play many roles in the body  Most mineral-rich foods are vegetables, legumes, milk, and some meats

27. Body Energy Balance Slide 14.83 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Energy intake = total energy output (heat + work + energy storage)  Energy intake is liberated during food oxidation  Energy output  Heat is usually about 60%  Storage energy is in the form of fat or glycogen

28. Regulation of Food Intake Slide 14.84 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Body weight is usually relatively stable  Energy intake and output remain about equal  Mechanisms that may regulate food intake  Levels of nutrients in the blood  Hormones  Body temperature  Psychological factors

29. Metabolic Rate and Body Heat Production Slide 14.85a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Basic metabolic rate (BMR) – amount of heat produced by the body per unit of time at rest  Factors that influence BMR  Surface area – small body usually has higher BMR  Gender – males tend to have higher BMR

30. Metabolic Rate and Body Heat Production Slide 14.85b Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Factors that influence BMR (continued)  Age – children and adolescents have a higher BMR  The amount of thyroxine produced is the most important control factor  More thyroxine means higher metabolic rate

31. Total Metabolic Rate (TMR) Slide 14.86 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Total amount of kilocalories the body must consume to fuel ongoing activities  TMR increases with an increase in body activity  TMR must equal calories consumed to maintain homeostasis and maintain a constant weight

32. Body Temperature Regulation Slide 14.87a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Most energy is released as foods are oxidized  Most energy escapes as heat

33. Body Temperature Regulation Slide 14.87b Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  The body has a narrow range of homeostatic temperature  Must remain between 35.6° to 37.8°C (96° to 100° F)  The body’s thermostat is in the hypothalamus  Initiates heat-loss or heat-promoting mechanisms

34. Heat Promoting Mechanisms Slide 14.88 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Vasoconstriction of blood vessels  Blood is rerouted to deeper, more vital body organs  Shivering – contraction of muscles produces heat

35. Heat Loss Mechanisms Slide 14.89 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Heat loss from the skin via radiation and evaporation  Skin blood vessels and capillaries are flushed with warm blood  Evaporation of perspiration cools the skin
