Answer
Adominopelvic cavity   show
🗑
show upper right, lower right, upper left, lower left  
🗑
regions   show
🗑
show serous membrane that lines theabdominopelvic cavity and supports and covers most of the organs located within this cavity  
🗑
show lines body cavity  
🗑
Visceral peritoneum   show
🗑
show space between th parietal and visceral peritoneum which contains a small amount of peritoneal fluid  
🗑
Special Peritoneal membranes   show
🗑
show suspended from the inferior curvature of the stomach  
🗑
show attaches the lesser curvature of the stomach to the liver (superior part of stomach)  
🗑
show tough (dura-like) attaches th liver to the inferior side of the diaphragm and the anterior of the body wall  
🗑
Mesentery   show
🗑
Mesocolon   show
🗑
show "behind the peritoneum" only covered on the anterior side  
🗑
show pancreas, kidneys, portion of the duodenum, ascending and descending colon  
🗑
show inflammation of the peritoneum. may be serious because infection can readily spred throughout the peritoneal cavity  
🗑
show mostly in the upper left quadrant, between the esophagus and small intestine  
🗑
Structure of the stomach   show
🗑
show cardiac, fundus, body, pylorus  
🗑

🗑

🗑
Rugae   show
🗑

🗑
Chief cells   show
🗑
show produces HCl which decreases the pH of the stomach contents, produces interinsic factor required for B12 absorption  
🗑
Mucous cells   show
🗑
show secrete hormones which influence digestive organs, example:gastrin -> increases GI activity  
🗑
show located between the stomach and duodenum, controls how much chme enters the small intestine  
🗑
Chyme   show
🗑
show mechanical mixing of food and production of chyme, intiates protein digestion, storage of chyme until it passes into the duodenum (only lets a small amount through at a time) minimal absorption some drugs and alcohol)
