Dipeptide
35
What is the product of Dipeptidase(protease) when produced by the wall of the intestine to complete digestion
Amino Acids
36
What does the small intestine absorb
Usable food substances Nutrients - monosaccharides, amino acids, fatty acids, vitamins, etc.
37
What does the large intestine absorb
Water & dissolved minerals from indigestible food residues
38
Structure of the small intestine
4 main tissues layers (From outside to inside -) Serosa Muscle Layer Submucosa Mucosa
39
Serosa
Most outer layer of the small intestine - protective outer covering - layer of cells reinforced by fibrous connective tissue
40
Muscle layer
Second outer later of small intestine - outer layer of longitudinal muscle - inner layer of circular muscle (segmentation)
41
Submucosa
Second inner layer of small intestine - composed of connective tissue - separates the muscle layer from mucosa
42
Mucosa
Innermost layer of small intestine -highly folded - absorbs material through surface epithelium from intestinal lumen
43
ileum
final section of the small intestine
44
epithelium
thin layer of tissue that covers organs and glands
45
Villi surface area
vili increases the surface area of epithelium which absorption is carried out by
46
Location of vili
the inner epithelial, in the intestinal lumen
47
Vili
Highly folded, finger like projections in epithelial lining
48
Features of vili
MR SLIM - Microvilli - Rich blood supply - Single layer epithelium - Lacteals - Intestinal glands - Membrane
49
Villi - Microvilli
Ruffling of epithelial membrane further increases surface area
50
Villi - Rich blood supply
Dense capillary network rapidly transports absorbed products
51
Villi - Single layer epithelium
Minimises diffusion distance between lumen and blood
52
Villi - Lacteals
Absorbs lipids from the intestine into the lymphatic system
53
Vili - Intestinal glands
Exocrine pits release digestive juices
54
Villi - Membrane proteins
Facilitates transport of digested materials into epithelial cells
55
