Circular folds Flashcards
What does circular fold increase
surface area for digestion and absoprtion of small intetsine
Localized contractions is termed
segementation
Propulsive contractions is termed
peristalsis
This organ delivers pancreatic juice into duodenum
Pancreas
This organ produces bile
liver
This organ stores bile
gallbladder
This organ is a major site of digestion and absorption of nutrients and water
small intestine
These secrete alkine fluid to buffer stomach acids
duodenal glands
This is reffered to as localized contractions but can also be reffered to as alternating contractions of circular smooth muscle fibers
segmentation
What is Migrating Motility complex? MMC
Waves of contraction and relaxation of circular and longitudinal smooth muscle fibers
These substrates proteins
Pepsin
Trypsin
Chymotrypsin
Elastase
These targest starches
salivary amylase, pancreatic amylase
These target triglycerides
Gastric lipase
pancreatic lipase
When the walls of haustra contract to squeeze contents onward
haustrak churning
Mass peristalsis
strong peristaltic wave that begins in the tranverse colon and quickly drive the contents of colon into rectum
