Q

Secretion

A
  • Mucus (lubricate)
  • Water (liquefy): Need to mix with mucus to introduce enzyme
  • Bile (Digest): emulsifies fats (breaks fat down to tiny little droplets)
  • Enzymes: Chemical digestion

Q

Sublingual Gland

A
  • Smallest
  • Mixed, but more mucous (mucus secretion)
24
Q

Lingual Gland

A
  • Small
  • Coiled tubular glands on surface of tongue
25
Q

Saliva

A
  • Prevents bacterial infections
  • Lubrication
  • Helps to form bolus for swallowing
26
Q

Sphincters

A
  • Upper = striated
  • Lower = smooth
27
Q

Phases of Swallowing

A
  • Voluntary
  • Pharyngeal
  • Esophageal
28
Q

Voluntary Phase

A

Bolus of food moved by tongue from oral cavity to pharynx (In control)

29
Q

Pharyngeal Phase

A
  • Controlled by medulla oblongata
  • Soft palate elevates and esophageal sphincter relaxes, elevated pharynx opens esophagus
  • Food is pushed into esophagus by pharyngeal constrictiors
    -Reflex
30
Q

Esophageal Phase

A
  • Reflex
  • Stretch of esophagus causes enteric NS to initiate peristalsis of muscles in esophagus
31
Q

Sphincters of Stomach

A
  • Cardiac (lower esophageal)
  • Pyloric
32
Q

Rugae

A
  • Folds in stomach hen empty
  • allows stomach to expand
33
Q

Histology of stomach

A

Layers
- Serosa/ Visceral peritoneum
- Muscularis:
- Outer longitudinal
- Middle circular
- Inner oblique
- Submucosa
- Mucosa

34
Q

Mucous neck/ mucus cell

A

Mucus = goblet cells
- Protects from acidic chyme and enzyme pepsin

35
Q

Parietal Cell

A

Hydrochloric acid and intrinsic factor
- Kills bacteria
- Stops carbs. digestion by inactivating salivary amylase
- Denatures proteins
- Help converts pepsinogen to pepsin

36
Q

Chief Cell

A

Pepsinogen

37
Q

Endocrine of Stomach

A
  • Regulatory hormones
  • Help stomach to communicate with other parts of GI tract
38
Q

Secretions of Stomach

A
  • Chyme
  • Mucus
  • Intrinsic factor
  • HCI
39
Q

Chyme

A

Ingested food plus stomach secretions (vomit)

40
Q

Gastric Control

A
  • Cephalic
  • Gastric
    -Intestinal
41
Q

Cephalic Phase

A
  • Thinking about food
  • Starts to stimulate the stomach
    -Excites cells
42
Q

Gastric Phase

A
  • Distention of stomach activates parasympathetic reflex
  • Medulla oblongata stimulates further secretions of stomach
43
Q

Intestinal Phase

A
  • Inhibit stomach acid
  • When food goes down the small intestine, acid is turn down and more mucus is produce
44
Q

Small Intestine Divisions

A
  • Duodenum
  • Jejunum
  • Ileum
45
Q

Function of Small Intestine

A
  • Primary organ of chemical digestion
  • Nutrient absorption
46
Q

What increase surface area?

A
  • Plicae circulares
  • Villi
  • Microvilli
47
Q

Peyer’s Patches

A
  • lymphatic nodules numerous in mucosa and submucosa
  • Guards for infection
48
Q

Ileocecal junction

A

Where small and large intestine meets

49
Q

Brush Border

A

Digestive enzymes bound to membrane of absorptive cells

50
Q

Disaccharidases

A

Break down to monosaccharides (simple sugar)

51
Q

Peptidases

A

Breaks protein down

52
Q

Nucleases

A

Break down DNA and RNA

53
Q

Functions of Liver

A
  • Bile production
  • Storage of Carbs
  • Change anything to fat
  • Detoxification
  • WBCs located there
  • Plasma proteins and clotting factors
54
Q

Gallbladder

A

Storage of bile

55
Q

Chloecystokinin

A
  • gallbladder mover
  • flows to bloodstream to down regulate gastric secretions
  • and squeeze bile out
56
Q

Pancreas

A
  • Endocrine and exocrine
  • Endocrine: produce insulin, glucose, and somatostatin
  • Exocrine: groups acini form lobules separated by septa
