Chapter 21 Flashcards
What is the migrating myoelectric/motor complexes?
It is the overall progression of our GI tract, movement between meals. Stomach -> large intestine.
What type of contraction is the migrating myoelectric/motor complexes?
phasic contraction
How long does the migrating myoelectric/motor complex take?
about 90 minutes
Where do you find peristalsis?
esophagus, stomach, and intestines
What type of muscles are used in peristalsis and what movements do they cause?
Circular muscles that narrow the passageway and allow for sequential contractions (oral to aboral), and. longitudinal muscles that shorten the pathway
Is peristalsis phasic or tonic?
phasic
What direction is peristalsis?
oral to aboral
Where do you find segmental contractions?
intestines
What type of muscle is used in segmental contractions and what movement does it cause?
Circular muscles which give you a narrow and sequential contraction (oral to aboral?
What is the overall purpose of segmental contractions?
squish food back and forth/churning, mixing
Where do you find mass movement?
colon
What is the mass movement’s movement?
forceful movement to set up for defecation, peristaltic- like
Where is acid secreted?
Gastric parietal cells, associated with meals times, 1-3L/day
How do we get the H+ out into the lumen from the cell?
H+/K+ ATPase pumps on apical membrane
How do we get the Cl- into the cell from the interstitial fluid?
HCO3-/Cl antiport aka chloride shift on the basolateral membrane
Where is buffer (HCO3-) secreted?
pancreas in acini
What is the buffers primary active transport?
Na+/K+ ATPase pump on basolateral membrane to build up the Na+ gradient
What does secondary (buffer) active transport move in?
NKCC channel, Cl- in to cell on basolateral membrane, Na+ out
What allows for Cl- to diffuse out of the cell?
CTFR on the apical membrane
What port allows for the chloride shift to happen?
HCO3-/Cl- antiport on apical membrane
2nd secondary active transport that allows for H+ to diffuse into our blood?
Na/H antiport on basolateral membrane, the H+ is going to help bring our pH back down to a normal level
Where is NaCl secreted?
small intestine, salivary acini
What is NaCl primary active transport?
Na/K ATPase pump, basolateral membrane
What is NaCl secondary active transport?
NKCC channel, basolateral membrane, Cl- in, Na+ out
What allows Cl- to diffuse out of the cell?
CTFR channel, apical membrane
Na+ follows water so what is the final way it can move between cells?
paracellularly
Where are digestive enzymes secreted?
pancreas
What are digested enzymes secreted as?
zymogens
What are the two ways zymogens can be secreted?
exocytosis into ducts or anchored to the duodenum’s apical surface in the small intestine
Where is bile produced?
hepatocytes of liver
Where is bile stored?
gallbladder
What is the emulsifying agent?
bile salts
What are bile pigments?
bilirubin and stercobilin
Where is mucus made?
salivary serous cell and gastric mucous cells
Where is mucus secreted?
lumen
Where is saliva made?
salivary acini, mainly water
Where do we find mechanical digestion?
oral cavity and stomach
Where do we find enzymatic digestion?
oral cavity, stomach, and small intestine
Where do we do our absorption?
small intestine
Where does digestion start and with what enzymes?
oral cavity with amylase and breaks it down to disaccharides
