Question
Answer
organs involved in the breakdown of food   digestive system  
🗑
the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the rectum & anus   proctology  
🗑
the structure, function, diagnosis, & treatment of diseases of the stomach & intestines   gastroenterology  
🗑
a continuous tube that extends from the mouth to the anus   GI tract  
🗑
AKA GI tract   alimentary canal  
🗑
teeth, tongue, salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, & pancreas   accessory digestive glands  
🗑
the capability of the GI tract to mix & move material along its length is   motility  
🗑
the large carbohydrate, lipid, protein, & nucleic acid molecules in food are split into smaller molecules by hydrolysis in   chemical digestion  
🗑
teeth cut & grind the food, smooth muscles of the stomach & small intestine churn the food in   mechanical digestion  
🗑
entrance of ingested & secreted fluids, ions, & the products of digestion into the epithelial cells lining the lumen of the GI tract   absorption  
🗑
the discharge of feces from the rectum   defecation  
🗑
inner lining of the GI tract   mucosa membrane  
🗑
nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium lining & protecting the mouth, pharynx, esophagus, & anal canal   epithelium  
🗑
all the chemical reactions that occur in the body   metabolism  
🗑
chemical reactions that break down complex organic molecules into simpler ones are collectively known as   catabolism  
🗑
chemical reactions that combine simple molecules & monomers to form the body's complex structural & functional components   anabolism  
🗑
molecule that couples catabolic and anabolic reactions   ATP  
🗑
catabolic reactions that produces more energy than it consumes   exergonic  
🗑
anabolic reactions that consume more energy than they produce   endergonic  
🗑
removal of electrons from an atom or molecule, the result is a decrease in potential energy of that atom or molecule   oxidation  
🗑
the addition of electrons to a molecule resulting in an increase in the potential energy of the molecule   reduction  
🗑
the conversion of pyruvic acid to lactic acid is a   reduction reaction  
🗑
oxidation and reduction reactions are always   paired, aka redox reactions  
🗑
the addition of a phosphate group to a molecule, that causes an increase in potential energy   phosphorylation  
🗑
