31
__________ is the sum role of all cellular activities that maintain the body.
METABOLISM
32
___________ is the mechanical and chemical processes involved in breaking larger food particles down into smaller ones
DIGESTION
33
__________ is the process by which molecules pass from the gut tube to the bloodstream and lymphatic circulation.
ABSORPTION
34
the _______ Initials mechanical and chemical digestion.
MOUTH
35
why are the nasal pharynx and oral pharynx separated by hard and soft components of the palate?
to allow breathing while chewing.
36
chewing (teeth), manipulation of food by muscles of mastication (V3), buccinator (VII), and tongue (XII).
Mechanical Digestion
37
salivary amylase (initial carbohydrate breakdown) – starch breakdown.
Chemical Digestion
38
DETAIL ON TEETH: In maxilla or dentary: Incisors (4): _____________ Canines (2): ____________________________ Premolars (4): ___________________________ Molars (6): ___________________
1) tearing and nipping. 2) slashing, tearing, shearing, biting 3) larger, complexly surfaced, for chewing and grinding. 4) even larger grinding teeth.
39
Esophagus is the First part of body in which ____________ takes place.
PERISTALSIS | Peristalsis – wave of muscular action that propels bolus of food down gut tube.
40
STOMACH: Main functions: _________ Preparation of food before it moves to ________ Testing area in case of “______________”. Not an _________ structure.
1) Storage 2) small intestine 3) poisonous ingestion 4) absorptive
41
Stomach: Mechanical Digestion Inner surface derived from ________. Three layers of smooth muscle (derived from mesoderm) to churn/mix food. Breaks food down and mixes with gastric secretions.
endoderm
42
Rugae folds on internal surface of stomach. | what does it do?
1) Increase surface area 2) Allow distention. 3) When not completely distended, allows food to be pushed up against ridges for further mechanical digestion.
43
_____________________ from Parietal Cells is the Primary gastric secretion:
HYDROCHLORIC ACID (HCl)
44
____________ lubricates food, protects stomach lining from HCl.
Mucous
45
Zymogenic Cells (Chief Cells) – PEPSINOGEN. HCl cleaves pepsinogen into ________, which chemically digests proteins.
PEPSIN
46
_______________secrete hormones that regulate stomach functions such as peristalsis, other secretions, etc.
Enteroendocrine Cells
47
________ stimulates secretion of HCl. | It's secretion is controlled by the _______ nerve. Can be stimulated by smell, taste, chewing, swallowing.
1) Gastrin | 2) Vagus
48
Food and secretions together are called _______
Chyme.
49
SMALL INTESTINE: Most of the _________ of nutrients and water. Complete/finish __________ of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. it is made up of what three parts? Duodenum, Jejunum, Ileum
1) absorption 2) chemical digestion 3) Duodenum, Jejunum, Ileum
50
Glands dumps into duodenum via ___________
common bile duct
51
Liver via _________. Products stored in gall bladder via _________. Pancreas (usually directly into duodenum via ______________.)
1) bile duct 2) cystic duct 3) pancreatic duct
52
(FOREGUT) LIVER: Detoxification Glycogen storage. Bile Secretion – bile is extremely _________. Neutralizes acidic material passed from ___________ Aids in ___________.
1) alkaline 2) stomach to duodenum 3) fat breakdown
53
__________ Vagal stimulation promotes secretion of three pancreatic enzymes:
Exocrine Secretion
54
____________ – splits large fats into smaller | _____________ – breaks down polysaccharides into monosaccharide and disaccharides.
1) Pancreatic Lipase | 2) Pancreatic amylase
55
Pancreatic Proteolytic Enzymes – inactive forms of the following secreted into duodenum: __________ ___________ _____________
1) Trypsin 2) Chymotrypsin 3) Carboxypeptidase ( Enterokinase activates the trypsin. Trypsin activates the others.)
56
MIDGUT: JEJUNUM AND ILEUM Morphology: Jejunum – about 2.5 meters ( 8 feet) Ileum – about 3.5 meters (11-12 feet) Great length increases absorptive surface area, and passage through it increases time for absorption. Plicae Circulares – internal folds of small intestine. Villi – tall, pillar-like bumps arise from internal surface to increase surface area. Inside each one: arterial branch, venous branch, nerve, lacteal. Intestinal glands – clefts between villi (old name = “Crypts of Lieberkuhn”).

57
MIDGUT: JEJUNUM AND ILEUM Remaining Mechanical Digestion: _______________ – propel mushed-up foodstuff (chyme) ______________ – circularly arranged bands of smooth muscle can constrict small intestine to point of occlusion. Functions to break up chyme, keeping it loose and mushy.
1) Peristaltic Contractions | 2) Segmenting Contractions
58
Absorption in the Small Intestine: ___________ – 80-90% of it entering gut tube is absorbed in small intestine. ___________ – primarily through microvilli of villi. ___________ – though columnar-shaped absorptive cells on the villi ________ – glycerol and free fatty acids combine with bile secretions to form a MICELLE ( hydrophilic outer surface; lipids internally) allowing them to be absorbed across villi
1) WATER 2) CARBOHYDRATES 3) PROTEINS 4) LIPIDS
59
Lipid Processing: MICELLE absorbed across villi. Once inside cells, housed in endoplasmic reticulum. Lipids packed into protein coated droplets called CHYLOMICRONS. Sent to lacteal of villus.
