Functions of Digestive/ Urinary System
Digestive: The digestive system breaks down food into smaller prices so they can be absorbed by cells in the body.
Urinary: The urinary system creates urine. It also filters blood and with the nutrients of food, they are converted into energy.
Organs of Digestive/ Urinary Systems
Digestive: The major organs of the digestive system are the small and large intestines, rectum, stomach, pharynx, esophagus, and salivary glands.
Urinary: The major organs of the urinary system is urethra, urinary bladder, kidneys, and ureters.
Disorders
Urinary:
Kidney Stones

is a type of disease that are hard deposits of bile.
Celiac
disease is another type of disease that gets formed when people eat gluten.
Digestive Enzymes
Pancreatic Lipase: This breaks up fats.
Amylase: Breaks down big starch molecules into small sugar molecules.
Deoxyribonuclease/ Ribonuclease: Breaks down bonds in nucleic acids. For example, RNA and DNA.
Pepsin: Helps break down proteins into amino acids.
Trypsin: Breaks down proteins.
Macromolecules
The function of the small intestine is to absorb nutrients and minerals that are in food. It is also the gastrointestinal tract between the stomach and large intestine.
Chemical digestion begins in the stomach and ends in the anus, much of this process occurs in the small intestine. This occurs when enzymes, and acids breaks down food into nutrients.
Layers of the GI tract/ Stomach
GI: Mucosa, submucosa, muscularis propia, and adventitia
STOMACH: Mucosa, submucosa, muscularis, and serosa. Mucosa is divided into three layers: Surface epithelium, gastric pits, gastric glands.
Nephron Anatomy and Physiology
Nephrons have a blood supply and duct networks called tubule. Every nephron, feeds a high- pressure capillary bed named the glomerulus. This also filters blood to produce fluid. This is now caught by the nephron tubule also known as the filtrate.
