Digestion Flashcards
Match the type of digestion with the correct means of digestion:
Mechanical and chemical
Mechanical = peristalsis Chemical = enzymes
Match the correct enzymes with the food substrate acted upon:
Lactose, sucrose, protein, polysaccharides, peptides
Lactose = lactase Sucrose = sucrase Protein = pepsin Polysaccharides = amylase Peptides = peptidase
Match the breakdown products of digestion with the correct macronutrient:
Protein, carbohydrate, lipids
Protein = amino acids Carbohydrate = monosaccharides Lipids = fatty acids and glycerol
Match the correct disorder with the correct disorder:
Coeliac disease, cirrhosis, gastric ulcer, diverticulitis, dysphagia, cystic fibrosis, gingivitis, caries
Coeliac disease = small intestine Cirrhosis = liver Gastric ulcer = stomach Diverticulitis = colon Dysphagia = pharynx Cystic fibrosis = pancreas Gingivitis = gums Caries = teeth
Match the features below with their correct location:
Lymphoid dissue, villi, lacteal, peptic glands, bile
Lymphoid dissue = throughout gut Villi = small intestine Lacteal = small intestine Peptic glands = stomach Bile = gall bladder
Match the hormone with the correct target organ:
Gall bladder, pancreas, stomach
Gall bladder = cholecystokinin
Pancreas = secretin
Stomach = gastrin
Match the secretion with its correct source:
Rennin, bicarbonate, trypsinogen, enterokinase, salivary amylase, hydrochloric acid, pepsin
Rennin = stomach Bicarbonate = pancreas Trypsinogen = pancreas Enterokinase = small intestine Salivary amylase = mouth Hydrochloric acid = stomach Pepsin = stomach
Match the sphincter with its correct anatomical location:
Internal anal, oddi, pyloric, cardiac, ileo-caecal
Internal anal = rectum Oddi = pancreas/duodenum Pyloric = stomach/duodenum Cardiac = oesophagus/stomach Ileo-caecal = iliem/colon
What are the accessory glands of the gastrointestinal tract?
Liver, salivary and pancreas
The mucosa of the gastrointestinal tract has …
Glands and a high rate of mitosis
