digestive system Flashcards
proteolytic enzymes from the gastric juice
pepsin, lab ferment, gelatinase
proteolytic enzymes from the pancreatic juice
trypsin, chymotrypsin, carboxypeptidase, elastase
the feces contains
rests resulted from digestion, vegetal cellulose fibers, desquamated cells from the mucosa, germs (non/pathogenic)
tissue/mucosa at the oral cavity, pharynx, esophagus (upper 1/3)
stratified squamous epithelium
tissue/mucosa at the middle and lower 1/3 of the digestive tube
uni-stratified columnar epithelium
connective tissue/submucosa in the entire digestive tube
loose connective tissue with blood vessels and vegetative nervous fibers
muscular at the upper 1/3 of the digestive tube
striate muscular tissue
muscular at the lower 1/3 of the digestive tube
smooth muscular tissue with two layers: internal (with circular fibers) and external (with longitudinal fibers)
muscular at the stomach
3 layers: outer longitudinal, middle circular and inner oblique fibers
muscular at the colon
external layer concentrates in 2-3 bands (teniae)
muscular at the sphincters
circular fibers
Adventitia at the pharynx, esophagus and terminal portion of the rectum
loose connective tissue
Adventitia at the middle and lower third of the digestive tube (except the terminal portion of the rectum)
thick connective tissue
sphincter between the esophagus and the stomach
cardia sphincter
sphincter between the stomach and the duodenum
pyloric sphincter
3 parts of the stomach
Fundus, body, antrum (and pyloric canal)
parts of the small bowel
duodenum and free intestine (jejunum and ileum)
parts of the large intestine
cecum (with appendix; right side),
ascending, transverse and descending + sigmoid colon)
rectum with anal orifice
sphincter of the anal orifice
- internal sphincter (smooth, vegetative controlled)
2. external sphincter (striated, voluntary controlled)
protein metabolic function of the liver
synthesis of plasmatic proteins (albumin..) and amino acid
carbohydrates metabolism of the liver
keeping constant the glycaemia by glycogen genesis (Aufbau) and gluconeogenesis (Abbau), Speicherung als Glykogen
lipids metabolism of the liver
synthesis of the phospholipids and cholesterol, ketogenesis
Otter functions of the liver
bile secretion, stores vitamines (A,D;B12,K) and iron (required for the synthesis of hemoglobin), hematopoietic function in the fetal period, regulating the acid-basal balance, ammonia into urea…
antiseptic role present in the digestive system
salvia and HCL in the gastric juice,
