1 VERTEBRATE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM Functions: - mechanical breakdown - big lumps of food to small - chemical breakdown - digestion monomers - absorption of monomers - compact waste feces, extract water eliminate Common features: - longitudinal tube through body - regional specializations along length - basic wall plan common to all vertebrate groups Trends: - simple complex as diet harder to digest - easily digested food: simple, short gut (filter-feeders, carnivores) - "tough" food: gut longer, more complex (herbivores)

2 Trends: FISH DIGESTIVE SYSTEM no oral salivary glands - water lubricates food no separate stomach in some species intestine surface area for absorption increased: -long tube, folded/coiled in coelom -mucosa folded internally -spiral valve -villi
