Importance of Chewing
3. Food is broken into small particles required for enzyme
actions.
4. Mixing with saliva so that bolus can be swallowed
easily
6. Grinding the food to a very fine particles prevents
injury to the GIT
Muscles of Mastication:
1.Masseter 2. Temporal 3. Pterygoids 4. Buccinator.
Movements associated with Mastication:
11.Opening & closure of mouth
Control Of mastication
.1. The centre for mastication is located in medulla & cerebral
cortex.
2. The muscles of mastication are suplied by mandibular division of
V cranial nerve
(V cranial
Nerve)
Swallowing (Deglutition)
Swelling can be divided into
(2)Oral Stage : a voluntary stage, in which
food enetrs pharynx frommouth.
(3)Pharyngeal stage- an involuntary stage
in which food is enters esopahgus from
the pharynx.
(4)Esophageal stage-involuntary phase in
which food enters stomach from the
esophagus.
1. Oral Stage of
Deglution
1. Voluntary Stage in which after the Food is
rolled into a bolus by chewing following
actions occur:
2. The bolus is placed on poster-odorsal part of
tongue
3. The anterior part of tongue is retracted &
depressed
4. The posterior part of tongue is elevated and
pressed against hard palate. This pushes the
bolus backward into pharynx.
5. With forceful contractions of tongue, the
Deglutition Reflex
Ist stage of deglutition is Voluntary while 2nd & 3rd Stages
of Deglutitin are Involuntary and through deglutition
reflex mechanism.
Stimulus: The sensory receptors in oro-phayrynx specially
area in a ring around the pharyngeal opening, with
greatest sensitivity on the tonsillar pillars gets
stimuted when food reaches here.
Afferent Fibres: impulses from pharyngeal receptors pass
through glasso-pharyngeal nerve (IX cranial nerve) to
deglutititon or swallowing centre in medulla (see nxt slide
for photo).
Deglutition Centre: it is located in floor of 4th Ventricle in
Medulla oblongata of brain.
Efferent Fibres: Impulses from deglutition centre travel
through glasso-pharyngeal nerve (IX cranial nerve) & vagus
nerve (X cranial nerve) & reach soft palate, palate, pharynx,
& esophagus.

MOVEMENTS OF STOMACH
1. HUNGER CONTRACTIONS
2. RECEPTIVE RELAXATION
3. Peristalsis of Stomach: FILLING &
EMPTYING
1. HUNGER CONTRACTIONS:
When the person is empty stomach hunger
contractions occurs. They are peristaltic waves
superimposed upon normal smooth muscle
contractions.
The peristaltic waves of normal stomach when
food is there occur in body & pyloric part of
stomach whereas the hunger contraction occurs
APPLIED PHYSIOLOGY
2. RECEPTIVE RELAXATION OF
STOMACH:
Relaxation of upper part of stomach
when bolus of food enters the
stomach from esophagus is called
RECEPTIVE RELAXATION, It occurs in
fundus, and upper part of body of
stomach to receive & accommodate
food without increase in pressure of
stomach so no discomfort to person.
