Lab quiz 2-Small intestine, protein digestion, H2O absorption
Question | Answer |
---|---|
What is the small intestine mostly responsible for? | digestion and absorption |
How long are the duodenum, jejunum, ileum | 10", 8', 12' |
What are the four layers of the wall of the SI | mucosa, submucosa, muscularis externa, serosa |
Where does most digestion take place | the SI |
What is the main source of digestive enzymes | pancreas |
What are the specializations of the mucosa and submucosa | plicae circularis or valves of Kerckrings (3x size increase) villi (10x) microvilli (20x) |
What disease causes serious decrease in surface area | celiac disease-no villi |
What is a lacteal | a central lymphatic duct in each villus for removal of intestinal lymph |
What types of fatts go through the lacteal first | chylomicrons |
What vessles supply the stomach and spleen, intestine and pancreas, intestine | celiac a, sup mesent a, inf mesent a |
What arteries supply the liver | Hepatic & portal |
What vein leaves the liver | hepatic v |
How do lipophilic molecules cross cell membrane | simple diffusion |
How do hydrophilic molecules cross the cell membrane | special transport systems such as channels or carriers |
What is secondary active transport | driven by the Na+ gradient |
What is primary active transport | driven by metabolic energy |
How can some large cells enter the cell | by endocytosis |
What activates pepsinogen | acid |
What activates trypsinogen | intestinal protease enterokinase |
T/F all luminal proteases are endopeptidases | T |
What is the function of pepsin | not very important for protein digestion, acts only on aromatic AAs, inactivated as soon as chyme enters duod |
Where does the final breakdown into absorbable units occur | in the brush border and catalyzed enzymes bound to the brush border membrane = contact digestion |
Where are proteins digested | stomach |
Where are proteases digested | lumen of SI |
Where are polypeptides and AAs digested | brush border of SI |
Where are AAs, dipeptides, tripeptides digested | enterocytes |
Name the 5 zymogens | trypsinogen, chymotrypsinogen, proelastase, procarboxypeptidase A & B-the inactive forms |
Where is absorption of proteins usually completed | mid jejunum, not totally complete until all di/tripeptides are taken up into the cell |
Where do proteins in the colon come from | largely from intestinal bacteria and sloughed off cells that are egested |
What is the daily water intake | 1.5-2 L |
What % of water intake is from solid food | 80% |
Where does most of the H2O absorption take place | SI |
Which tubes in the experiment had the most protein hydrolysis | 1ml .03 % boiled protease & ice cold protease |
What color indicates a positive test for protein digestion | dark blue |
Under what conditions is protease most effective | 37 degrees C and 5-6pH |
What color indicates a neg protein digestion test | light blue |
What is the vitamin required in AA metab | B6 |
Where is pepsin inactivated | the pancreas |
What prevents pancreatic proteases from digesting the pancreas | trypsin inhibitor( inhibits trypsinogen) |
