        Help!  

Question
Answer
deciduous teeth   milk or baby teeth  
🗑
The outer surface of the tooth root is covered by __.   cementum - calcified CT  
🗑
What anchors tooth in bony alveolus of jaw?   Peridontal ligament  
🗑
Bonelike material underlying enamel cap & makes up bulk of tooth.   Dentin  
🗑
Dental caries   cavities  
🗑
Calculus   tartar  
🗑
Histology of pharyngeal wall   Stratified squamous w/mucus-producing glands  
🗑
There are 2 __ layers in pharyngeal wall.   skeletal muscle  
🗑
How long is esophagus?   25 cm (10 inches) long  
🗑
How does epithelium change abruptly at esophagus-stomach junction.   Esophageal mucosa change from nonkeratinized stratified squamous to simple columnar epithelum which is specialized for secretion.  
🗑
Submucosa's esophageal glands secrete?   Mucus to grease the esophageal walls to aid food passage.  
🗑
The outermost layer of esophagus.   Adventitia (Fibrous CT)  
🗑
Name 2 digestive system structures whose only role is food propulsion.   Pharynx & esophagus  
🗑
deglutition   Swallowing - involves 22 separate muscle groups - buccal phase & pharyngeal-esophageal phase.  
🗑
Which phase of deglutition is voluntary?   buccal phase  
🗑
The pharyngeal-esophageal phase of deflutition is controlled by __.   Swallowing center in brainstem - medulla & lower pons - transmitted through vagus nerves.  
🗑
What structural modification of stomach tunic allows mechanical digestion?   Muscularis externa has 3rd layer of smooth muscle to churn food - runs obliquely.  
🗑
Size of adult stomach   15-25 cm (6-10 inches) 50 ml empty - 1 gallon full  
🗑
What part of stomach is continuous with duodenum.   Pylerus  
🗑
Lining of stomach   Simple columnar epithelium w/goblet cells that produce alkaline mucus - makes a bicarbonate-rich fluid layer.  
🗑
Mucous neck cells of stomach   Produce thin mucus - acidic  
🗑
Parietal cells of stomach   Secrete HCl & intrinsic factor - have microvilli  
🗑
Intrinsic factor is?   Glycoprotein for B12 absorption in small intestine, but produced in stomach.  
🗑
Ph of stomach   1.5 - 3.5  
🗑
Chief cells of stomach   Produce pepsinogen (inactive) - activated by HCl & becomes pepsin - positive feedback process.  
🗑
Enteroendocrine cells of stomach   Release chemical messengers - histamine, gastrin, serotonin, somatostatin  
🗑
What barrier protects stomach from self-digestion?   Gel-like mucosal barrier - (1) bicarbonate-rich mucus, (2) tight junctions, (3) stem cells that divide & replace quickly.  
🗑
gastritis   inflammation of stomach wall due to anything that breaches mucosal barrier  
🗑
Name some H2-receptor blocker drugs   Tagmet & Zantac  
🗑
Vagus nerve does what what with stomach.   Stimulates secretory activity of virtually all of its glands.  
🗑
Which hormone controls gastric secretion?   Gastrin - enzymes, HCL  
🗑
3 phases of gastric secretion   Cephalic (reflex), gastric, & intestinal - all may be occuring at same time.  
🗑
Cephalic reflex (Phase 1)   Conditioned reflex - occurs before food enters stomach - triggered by senses, prepares stomach - suppressed when emotinally depressed.  
🗑
Gastric Phase (Phase 2)   In stomach - 3-4 hours long - distension & gastrin are stimulus.  
🗑
G cells   Gastrin - secreting enteroendocrine cells.  
🗑
Highly acidic gastric contents __ gastrin secretion.   Inhibit  
🗑
Protein __ pH in stomach   raises - stimulates gastrin & HCl release  
🗑
HCl secretion is stimulated by which 3 chemicals?   ACh, gastrin, & histamine (by enterochromaffin-like cells) - all 3 combined causes HCl to pour forth.  
🗑
Blood draining from stomach is more __ than blood serving it.   alkaline - phenomenon called alkaline tide.  
🗑
Intestinal Phase (3)   2 components - excitatory & inhibitory - excitatory - gastric gland in duodendum produce intestinal gastrin: inhibitory - enterogastric reflex that puts on "breaks" to protect small intestine from acidity.  
🗑
Enterogastric reflex   release is inhibited.  
🗑
Plasticity   Smooth muscle's ability to stretch without greatly increasing tension & contracts expulsively.  
🗑
What sets rate of stomach's peristalic waves?   Pacemaker cells in longitudinal small muscle layers called interstitial cells of Cajal - don't initiate beat, neural does.  
🗑
Basic electrical rhythm (BER)   Cyclic slow waves of stomach due to pacemaker interstitial cells of Cajal.  
🗑
Stomach usually empties completely within __ hours.   4  
🗑
emesis   vomiting  
🗑
Where is emetic center located?   Controls vomiting - in medulla  
🗑
