III. MIcroanatomy of Avian and Ruminant GI system Flashcards

1
Q

The avian stomach consists of….

A

Two organs that function together:

  1. Proventriculus which contins glands with Oxynticopeptic cells that secrete both HCL and digestive enzymes
  2. Ventriculus which is extremely motile and serves to mash and grind the ingesta

Q

What do oxyticopeptic cells secrete and what avian organ are they found in?

A

Oxynticopptic cells secrete HCl nd digestive enzymes and are located within glands of the proventriculus.

Q

T. Submucosa of Avian proventriculus

A
  1. Compound tubuloalveolar submucosal glands
  2. Located between layers of the lamina muscularis
  3. Glandular cells (oxynticopeptic cells) are cuboidal and secrete BOTH Hcl and digestive enzmes
  4. A central duct drains the secretory product onto the papillae

Q

T. Mucosa of avian ventriculus

A
  1. Epithelium - columnar
  2. Mucosal glands - branched tubular with simple cuboidal epithelium (the lining eptiehlial cells are secretory)
  3. Serete cornified product, cuticle (pellicle) that along with grit, aides in mashing the food, as birds do not have teeth to break down ingested food.

17
Q

Describe the abomasum.

A

It is the normal glandular ruminant stomach. It is identical to the simple stomch of carnivores and contains the usual glandular ares and cell types present in other species.

18
Q

What do you call the large non-glandular stomach in ruminants?

A

Forestomach

19
Q

Describe the forestomach in ruminants.

A
  1. It is a large non-glandular stomach which contains micro-organisms that break down cellulose of plant material.
  2. Nutrients can then be absorbed across the eptiehlium of the forestomach
20
Q

Nonglandular ruminant stomach consists of what two parts?

A
  1. Forestomach (no glands)

2. Abomasum (glandular)

21
Q

The forestomach of the ruminant consists of what three parts?

A
  1. Rumen
  2. Reticulum
  3. Omasum
22
Q

T. Mucosa of the rumen

A
  1. Epithelium - stratified squamous keratinized
  2. L. propria - extends into papillae, NO GLANDS
  3. L. muscularis ABSENT - no msucle layers project into rumen papillae
23
Q

T. Submucosa of the rumen

A

NO GLANDS

24
Q

T. Muscularis of the rumen

A
  1. Inner circulr layer (smooth muscle)

2. Outer longitudinal layer (smooth muscle)

25
Q

What is the outer tunica of the rumen?

A

Tunica serosa

26
Q

Fermentation end products are absorbed continuously throughout the forestomach, but mostly where?

A

The rumen

27
Q

Rumen epithelial cells are adapted for _____.

A

Absorption

28
Q

What factors facilitate the removal and uptake of volative fatty acids?

A
  1. Rich capilary network

2. Large intercellular spaces

29
Q

T. Mucosa of the ruminnat reticulum (part of the forestomach)

A
  1. Epithelium - stratified squamous epithelium
  2. L. propria extends into folds - NO GLANDS
  3. L. muscularis in apex of primary crests. Therefore, the reticular mucosal projections contain a single cross sectional bundle of smooth muscle.
30
Q

T. submucosa of the reticulum

A

NO GLANDS

31
Q

T. muscularis of the reticulum

A
  1. Two layers - blique, smooth muscle
32
Q

What is the outer tunica of the reticulum?

A

Tunica Serosa

33
Q

Tunica mucosa of the omasum (part of the forestomach)

A
  1. Epithelium - keratinized stratified squamous forms laminae with horny papillae coming off the laminae
  2. L. Propria vary vascular - NO GLANDS
  3. L. muscularis thick and extends into laminae
34
Q

Tunica submucosa of the omasum

A

NO GLANDS

35
Q

T. Muscularis of the omasum

A
  1. Inner circular - intermediate muscle sheet of lamina
  2. Since inner circular layer extends into laminae and sandwiches the lamina muscularis layer, there are THREE distinct muscle layers in the omasal laminae (lamina muscularis in cross sectional format, longitudinal section of T. muscularis, and then lamina muscularis in cross sectional format)
  3. Outer longitudinal
36
Q

What is the outer tunica of the omasum

A

Tunica serosa

37
Q

Omasoabomasal fold

A

Epithelium changes from stratified squamous keratinized to simple columnar-secretory.

38
Q

In the rumen, ucosal projections are called?

A

Papillae

39
Q

In the reticulum, main mucosal projections are called?

A

Primary crests

40
Q

In the omasum, the main mucosal projections are called?

A

Laminae with horny papillae extending from the laminae
