ch 25 and 26 practice test Flashcards

1
Q
  1. digestive process begins with the ingestion of food
  2. starting in the mouth the mechanical and chemical breakdown of food is referred to as digestion
  3. once foods are broken down into chemical monomers the digestive system moves nutrients from the GI tract into the cells of the body via absorption
  4. indigestable residues along with some of the non-reabsorbed secretion of digestive organs, undergo compaction
  5. the final step requires defecation where the fecal matter resulting from compaction is excreted from the body

Q
  1. during the gastric phase food stretched the stomach and activates myenteric and vagovagal reflexes
  2. these reflexes stimulate gastric secretions
  3. these secretion include gastrin, pepsinogen, and HCl
  4. these process will continue in a positive feedback cycle until the phase is complete
  5. small peptides buffer stomach acid so the pH does not fall excessively low

Q
  1. the absorption of carbs from the intestinal lumen occurs directly through secondary active transport
  2. sodium-potassium pumps in the basal membrane work to actively transport sodium out the cell towards the interstitium while cotransporting potassium to the intracellular fluid
  3. with a declining intracellular concentration of sodium, sodium now diffuses from the intestinal lumen to the ICF of the epithelium
  4. the luminal diffusion of sodium to the ICF is coupled with glucose and galactose cotransport into the cell

Q

which occurs during the gastric phase of gastric secretion

A
