A

alimentary = mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine

accessory = teeth, tongue, salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, pancreas (aid in break dow of food)

Q

Components of the Tooth

A

enamel: made of calcium salts, protects tooth from wear and tear

dentin: (calcified connective tissue) makes up majority of tooth

pulp cavity: contains pulp (connective tissue containing nerves and blood vessels)

periodontal ligament: helps anchor tooth to jaw bone

-teeth nerves = cn 5 –> maxillary and mandibular branches

Q

Chemical Digestion Glands

A

saliva - from bilateral ducts =
1. parotid gland (serous with amylase)
2. submandibullar gland (serous with amylase)
3. sublingual gland (mucous with lipase)

-salivary amylase = polysaccharids to disaccharides -deactivated in stomach
-lingual lipase = triglycerides to fatty acids and glycerol (activated in stomach)

Q

Chemical Digestion Chemicals

A

-1.5L saliva/day
99.5% = water
0.5% =
amylase (starch)
lipase (fat)
mucin (protect and lubricate)
lysozome (antimicrobial)
IgA (antibody)
electrolytes (buffer)

Q

Taste (gustation)

A

10,000 taste buds form papillare (raised projections on tongue)

  1. foliate = lateral margins of tongue, degenerate in childhood
  2. filiform = whole surface of tongue

Q

Where do Taste Messages go

A

CN 7 = ant 2/3
CN 11 = posterior 1/3
CN 10 = throat and epiglottis
CN 5 = tactile sensation

Q

Olfaction (smell)

A

-special receptor cells for odorants
-olfactory glands produce mucus
-perception of smell in temporal cortex but does nto synapse in thalamus

Q

3 Phases of Deglutition (swallowing)

A

oral phase: oral cavity and tongue, bolus moves to posterior, voluntary, deglutition is dominant to respiration (cant breath and swallow)

pharyngeal phase: soft palate (nasal cavity protect) and epiglottis (trachea protect), UES relaxes, irreversable step; all or none, deglutition reflex initiated by oropharynx stretch

esophageal phase: UES contracts again, perstalsis to stomach, LES relaxes, ends when LES allows bolus into stomach

GERD is last

Q

Muscularis

A
  • Inner circular – pinch
  • Outer longitudinal – shrink
  • Mouth to middle esophagus
    and external anal sphincter =
    skeletal = voluntary
  • The rest = smooth =
    involuntary
