Lab Quiz 2

lab quiz 2 flashcards for enzymes & digestion

QuestionAnswer
mouth & salivary glands - saliva moistens food - bicarbonate maintains pH - amylase digests starch - lysosome inhibits bacteria
esophagus - moves food from pharynx to stomach
stomach - stores & mixes food - begins chemical digestion of protein w/ eznymes & acid - regulates delivery to small intestine
liver - produces bile - processes & stores nutrients
gallbladder - stores & concentrates bile
pancreas - secretes digestive enzymes into small intestine - secretes bicarbonate into small intestine to neutralize stomach acid
small intestine - digests proteins, fats, carbohydrates - absorbs water & nutrients - secretes digestive hormones & enzymes
large intestine - absorbs last of water & nutrients - stores waste material
rectum & anus - passageway for feces - expels undigested material
the digestive system's 4 main components - gastrointestinal tract - pancreas, gallbladder, liver - enzymes, hormones, nerves, blood - mesentery
digestive process: mouth 1. saliva secreted 2. saliva + chewing = moist lump (bolus) 3. enzymes break down starch
digestive process: esophagus 1. bolus goes down esophagus to reach stomach 2. nerves in the tissue trigger "peristalsis" (series of defined muscular contractions)
digestive process: stomach 1. bolus reaches stomach 2. bolus pounded into chunks 3. cells in lining secrete hormones 4. acids release to dissolve bolus & proteins 5. pancreas, liver, gallbladder produce bile 6. bolus has become chyme
digestive process: small intestine 1. liver sends bile to gallbladder 2. bile secreted into small intestine 3. fat in chyme is dissolved 4. fat molecules turn into fatty acids & glycerol 5. enzymes turn: - proteins into amino acids - carbohydrates into glucose
digestive process: large intestine 1. last of fluid drains through intestinal wall 2. stool is created
digestive process: rectum & anus 1. stool reaches rectum 2. nerves sense stool 3. stool exits through anus
chemical indicator a substance that changes color to show presence of another chemical
test for glucose: if glucose is present and we add [ ], what happens? Benedict's solution solution turns RED
test for starch: if starch is present and we add [ ], what happens? potassium triiodide solution turns BLACK
test for protein: if protein is present and we add [ ], what happens? Biuret reagent solution turns DARK PURPLE
test for lipids: if lipids are present and we add [ ], what happens? Sudan IV solution turns DARK RED (dark red layer above lighter red layer)
