secretions of the digestive tract last stage of digestion is preformed by E. coli, which secrets vitamins. large intestine
the rippling motion of muscles in the digestive tract. this motion mixes food with gastric juices turning them into thin liquid Peristalsis
phases of digestion function-prepares stomach for the arrival of food Cephalic Phase
Phase of digestion Duration-short (minutes) Cephalic Phase
Phase of digestion Mechanism-neutral via preganglionic fibers in vagus nerve and synapse in submucosal plexus Cephalic Phase
Phases of digestion Actions-primary, stimulation of mucus, enzyme, and acid production, leading to increased volume of gastric juice Cephalic Phase
phase of digestion secondary:stimulation of gastrin release by G cells Cephalic Phase
phase of digestion functions: enhance secretions started in cephalic stage, homogenize and acidify chyme initiate digestion of proteins by pepsin Gastric phase
Phase of digestion duration - long (3-4) hours Gastric Phase
