Q

where is secretin produced and what does it do?

A

it is produced in the duodenum and it reduces gastric acid secretion and increases HCO3 from pancreas

Q

what are the 3 phases of gastric activity

A

cephalic phase, gastric phase and intestinal phase

26
Q

what are the 3 different parts of the cephalic phase?

A

mechanical (chewing), chemical (taste, smell) and psychic (visual, emotional)

27
Q

what are the 2 parts of gastric phase

A

mechanical (distension) and chemical (food in stomach)

28
Q

what are the 2 parts of the intestinal phase?

A

mechanical (distension) and chemical (acid, protein in duodenum)

29
Q

where is the cephalic phase?

A

head

30
Q

where is the gastric phase?

A

intra-gastric

31
Q

where is the intestinal phase?

A

intestine

32
Q

what is the cephalic phase controlled by?

A

nerves (long reflex)

33
Q

what is the gastric phase controlled by?

A

nerves (long and short reflexes) and hormones (gastrin)

34
Q

what is the intestinal phase controlled by?

A

nerves (long and short reflexes), hormones (GIP, secretin)

35
Q

what does the small intestine secrete?

A

intestinal juice

36
Q

what are the motility movements of the small intestine

A

mixing, villus movements, segmentation contractions and peristalsis

37
Q

what controls the small intestine?

A

mainly local nerves (short reflexes) in response to intra-luminal stimuli

38
Q

when and where is secretin released from

A

duodenum in response to acid

39
Q

what does secretin do?

A

stimulates secretion of bicarbonate-rich pancreatic juice

40
Q

what stimulates bicarbonate secretion in the cephalic phase

A

vagus nerve

41
Q

what stimulates bicarbonate secretion in the gastric phase?

A

vagus nerve

42
Q

what stimulates bicarbonate secretion in the intestinal phase?

A

secretin and CCK and VIP

43
Q

what stimulates enzymes in the cephalic phase?

A

vagus nerve

44
Q

what stimulates enzymes in the gastric phase

A

vagus nerve

45
Q

what stimulates enzymes in the intestinal phase?

A

CCK and gastrin and GIP

46
Q

when and where is CCK released?

A

from duodenum in response to fat and protein

47
Q

what does CCK do?

A

stimulates secretion of enzyme-rich pancreatic juice

48
Q

what stimulates the secretion of bile and how?

A

vagus nerve by the relaxation of sphincter of Oddi

49
Q

what stimulates the secretion of bile in the intestinal phase?

A

CCK and secretin

50
Q

what stimulates the secretion of bile in the gastric phase?

A

vagus nerve

51
Q

what secretions come from the large intestine and rectum?

A

mucous and some water and electrolytes

52
Q

what are the motility movements in the large intestine and rectum?

A

mixing, mass movements (super peristalsis), defaecation

53
Q

what are mixing/segmentation movements controlled by?

A

long reflexes

54
Q

how are long reflexes triggered/

A

by food entering the stomach

55
Q

where does the stimulation of long reflexes effect?

A

intestines (increased motility)

56
Q

where does the gastro-ileal reflex effect?

A

ileum (increased motility)

57
Q

where does the gastro-colic reflex effect?

A

colon (increased motility)

58
Q

what is the control in the large intestine and rectum?

A

mainly neural, ANS, vagus to splenic flexure

59
Q

what controls the pelvic nerves

A

S2,3,4

60
Q

what controls the anal canal

A

ANS control of internal anal sphincter, voluntary control of external sphincter, sacral somatic nerves
