digestive system

Question 1

digestive system

Answer 1

converts food to raw materials that build and fuel body’s cells

Question 2

Alimentary canal/GI tract

Answer 2

continuous muscular digestive tube that winds through the ventral body- open both ends

Question 3

alimentary canal function

Answer 3

digests, absorbs,

Question 4

alimentary canal structures/organs

Answer 4

oral cavity, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small and large intestine, rectum, anus

Question 5

Accessory digestive structures (function)

Answer 5

Produce secretions that contribute to the breakdown of food

Question 6

Accessory digestive structures/organs

Answer 6

teeth, tongue, gallbladder, salivary glands, liver and pancreas

Question 7

ingestion

Answer 7

taking foods/liquids in via the mouth

Question 8

propulsion

Answer 8

moves food through the alimentary canal

Question 9

deglution/swallowing

Answer 9

voluntary act of moving food into alimentary canal

Question 10

buccal phase

Answer 10

compress bolus against hard palate, retracts tongue forcing bolus into oropharynx. (voluntary)

Question 11

pharyngeal phase

Answer 11

tactile receptors on the uvula are stimulated, medulla oblongata directs muscle contraction in pharyngeal muscles

Question 12

esophageal phase

Answer 12

a bolus is pushed toward the stomach by peristaltic waves, approach of bolus triggers opening of esophageal sphincter

Question 13

oral cavity

Answer 13

start of alimentary canal

chemical digestion

Answer 15

break down to simpler compounds

Question 16

salivary gland

Answer 16

secretes saliva to aid in chemical digestion

Question 17

pharynx

Answer 17

3 parts, nasopharynx, oropharynx, hypopharynx

Question 18

esophagus

Answer 18

smooth muscle in throat, swallowing is digestion

Question 19

stomach

Answer 19

amylase (converts starch and glucose), bile (secreted by liver, stored in gallbladder),

Question 20

pancreatic lipase

Answer 20

usually secreted by the pancreas and transferred to the duodenum to participate in the hydrolysis and digestion of fat, cholesterol esters, and fat-soluble vitamins

Question 21

pepsin

Answer 21

a stomach enzyme that serves to digest proteins found in ingested food.

Question 22

small intestine

Answer 22

Answer 23

primary digestive site

Question 24

mesentary

Answer 24

connective tissue

duodenum, produced in pancreas/liver

Question 37

pepsin

Answer 37

secreted by gastric glands, digests protein

Question 38

bolus

Answer 38

saliva moistens and breaks down food, chewed up food

Question 39

Answer 39

left stomach, chemical break down, paste

Question 40

feces

Answer 40

anal canal, defacation, dehydrated

Question 41

draw digestive system (liver, pancreas, gallbladder, common hepatic duct, cystic duct, pancreatic duct, common bile duct)

Question 42

peristalsis

Answer 42

act of squeezing food- move through organs

Question 43

liver (functions)

Answer 43

metabolic, regulatory, regenerates, 2 months, removes toxins, clotting factors, nutrients, cholesterol

Question 44

hepatitis (how, what, spread)

Answer 44

inflammation of the liver, alcohol, toxins, sexual contact, caring for ill

Question 45
