Question
Answer
show ingestion, digestion, absorption, compaction, defecation  
🗑
show intake of food  
🗑
show mechanical & chemical breakdown of food  
🗑
show uptake of macromolecules into epithelial cells of the digestive tract and then into the blood or lymph  
🗑
compaction   show
🗑
show elimination of feces  
🗑
show structures not part of digestive canal (teeth, tongue, salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, pancreas)  
🗑
peritoneum   show
🗑
layers of digestive tract=   show
🗑
mucosa   show
🗑
show • Connective tissue w/ capillaries & blood vessels, lymph vessels  
🗑
muscularis externa   show
🗑
serosa   show
🗑
show 1. myenteric plexus (PERISTALSIS, contractions of muscularis externa), 2. submucosal plexus (GLANDULAR secretions of mucosa, movements of muscularis mucosae)  
🗑
show mechanical & chemical  
🗑
show long (VAGOVAGAL) reflexes, short (MYENTERIC) reflexes, hormones  
🗑
GI tract effects=   show
🗑
saliva/ salivary gland functions   show
🗑
Intrinsic salivary glands   show
🗑
extrinsic salivary glands   show
🗑
show secrete mucus, stimulated by sympathetic NS  
🗑
serous cells   show
🗑
pharynx   show
🗑
show =swallowing  
🗑
esophagus   show
🗑
show movement of a bolus by successive wave of contraction starting at one place of mouth, moving down  
🗑
stomach   show
🗑
pyloric sphincter   show
🗑
show HCl (very acidic stomach), intrinsic factor (for B12 absorption) --> pernicious anemia= deficiency  
🗑
show activates enzymes, denatures proteins, converts Fe3+ to Fe2+, destroys most pathogens  
🗑
regenerative (stem cells)   show
🗑
gastric glands: types of cells   show
🗑
show secrete paracrine factors and hormone GASTRIN (G-cells); secretions= HORMONES (gastrin= most important hormone)  
🗑
show secrete pepsinogen (to break down proteins) & lipase (break down fat)  
🗑
show =vomiting; in response to: overstretching of the stomach or duodenum, chemical irritants (alcohol, bacterial toxins), visceral trauma, intense pain or psychological and sensory stimuli  
🗑
show cephalic phase, gastric phase, intestinal phase  
🗑
cephalic phase   show
🗑
gastric phase   show
🗑
intestinal phase   show
🗑
main cell type of liver   show
🗑
show glucose, amino acids, iron, vitamins, and other nutrients for metabolism or storage  
🗑
hepatocytes degrade from blood...   show
🗑
hepatocytes secrete into blood....   show
🗑
hepatocytes excrete bile:   show
🗑
gallbladder main functions   show
🗑
show bilirubin (excretory product), bile salts (bile acids- steroids synthesized from cholesterol), EMULSIFY FATS (dissolve fats in aqueous solutions w/ hydrophillic & hydrophobic side)  
🗑
show formed if bile is too concentrated; 80% bile acids reabsorbed in small intestine --> liver; 20% excreted in feces  
🗑
show proteases (trypsinogen, carboxypeptidase), amylase, lipase, ribonuclease and deoxyribonuclease  
🗑
show HCO3 ions (bicarbonate)  
🗑
pancreas: hormones regulating secretion   show
🗑
show from VAGUS & enteric nerves --> stimulate acini to secrete enzymes  
🗑
CCK   show
🗑
secretin   show
🗑
show Receives and MIXES chyme, pancreatic juice, and bile, Emulsify fats (via bile acids), neutralize acids, pancreatic enzymes take over job of chemical digestion  
🗑
jejunum   show
🗑
show last 60% of small intestine, thinner less muscular & vascular; lots of LYMPHATIC NODULES (=PEYER PATCHES), contains villi & microvilli; lacteal, absorption of LIPIDS  
🗑
VILLI   show
🗑
show fuzzy border on apical surface of each absorptive cell: the “brush border” increases absorptive surface area, brush border enzymes carry out some of the FINAL STAGES of enzymatic digestion  
🗑
peristalsis   show
🗑
segmentation   show
🗑
carb digestion: starch is digested to....   show
🗑
show transmembrane transporters move monosaccarides across cells  
🗑
show =enzymes that digest proteins; begin work in stomach @ pH 1.5- 3.5; pepsin digests 10-15% of dietary protein --> shorter peptides and some free amino acids; pancreatic & brush border enzymes reduce oligopeptides --> amino acids  
🗑
show Na+ dependent amino acid cotransporters move amino acids into epithelial cells  
🗑
micelles   show
🗑
show does not chemically change the residue, reabsorbs water and electrolytes  
🗑
show 75% water, 25% solids (bacteria, undigested fiber, fat); also lots of BACTERIA  
🗑
bacterial flora   show
🗑
show feces stretch rectum --> stimulate stretch receptors --> signal to spinal cord; spinal reflex --> contraction of rectum --> relaxes internal anal sphincter; impulses from brain prevent untimely defecation by keeping external anal sphincter contracted  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
