          #5 Matching Exercise
Match the digestive structures to its proper function:
Esophagus
[A] Stores bile produced by the liver
Stomach
[B] Connects the oral cavity to the pharynx
Small Intestine
[C] Function is to conduct swallowed food from the pharynx above to the stomach below
Large Intestine
[D] Distal portion of the large intestine
Gall Bladder
[E] Largest of the salivary glands, located superficial to the masseter muscle
Liver
[F] Proximal portion of the small intestine
Pancreas
[G] Muscle used to manipulate food in the oral cavity
Common Bile Duct
[H] Function is to ingest food. The mouth begins the process of digestion by secreting saliva and mechanically grinding food
Ileocecal junction
[I] Function is absorption of nutrients, as nearly all nutrients are absorbed using villi in this organ
Rectum
[J] Connection between the ileum of the small intestine and the ascending colon of the large intestine
Oral cavity
[K] Functions include the storage, some digestion, and release of food into the duodenum.
Parotid gland
[L] Endocrine function is glucose homeostasis; in digestion secretes trypsin, amylase, lipase & bicarbonate
Oropharynx
[M] Tube that is created as the hepatic and cystic ducts combine and transport bile to the duodenum
Tongue
[N] Function is to absorb water, produce flatus, and compact fecal material; storing the feces until it can be released
Duodenum
[O] Largest gland of the body that performs a variety of metabolic functions including plasma protein synthesis
