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
