What is the hepatic artery?
Blood comes from here with O2 Red artery in diagram
26
What is the hepatic portal vein?
From intestinal tract with nutrients Allows liver cells to process blood Blue structure next to hepatic artery or purple vein in the liver in the diagrams
27
What is the bile duct?
Where bile is collected from bile canaliculi and drained Green tube thing on side of hepatic artery and hepatic portal vein
28
What is a sinusoid?
Blood from hepatic artery and hepatic portal vermin drain Blue part in between brown things in diagram
29
What are hepatocytes?
Liver cells Brown things in diagram
30
What are bile canliculis?
Where bike is dumped and drained in Green things around brown cells in diagram
31
What is the hepatic/ central vein?
Attaches to hepatic portal vein Blue thing on the opposite side of the hepatic artery and hepatic portal vein on the diagram
32
What is the gall bladder?
Green ganglion looking thing in liver
33
What is the sphincter called between the ilium and cecum?
Iliocecal sphincter
34
What is the large intestine or colon?
Organ surrounding small intestine
35
What is the cecum?
Circular structure of the large intestine
36
What is the structure that is attached to the cecum?
Appendix (vermiform appendix)
37
What is the left side part of the colon on top of the cecum called?
Ascending colon
38
What is the top part of the colon called?
Transverse colon
39
What is the right side part of the colon called?
Descending colon
40
What is the white muscle that looks like a line called?
Taenia coli
41
What are the folds/ hills of the colon called?
Haustra
42
What is the part of the colon that makes an “S” shape and is all the way in the back?
Sigmoid colon
43
What is the canal leading to the butthole called?
Rectum
44
What is the butthole called?
Anal canal or anus
45
What are the external anal sphincters?
Under rectum makes butthole Closes and opens butthole
46
What is an enzyme?
Biological catalyst
47
What does pepsin break down?
Breaks down protein into amino acids
48
What does amylase break down?
Starch into glucose
49
What does lipase break down?
Fats but only the surface
50
What does the liver make?
Bile
51
What is a substrate?
Reactant What chemical you start with
52
What is the substrate for starch, fats and proteins?
Starch- amylose Fats- triglyceride Protein- protein
53
What is the product?
What you end up with Substrate + enzyme
54
What is the product of starch + amylase, triglyceride + pepsin and protein+ pepsin?
Simple sugar/ glucose 2 fatty acids and glycerol Amino acids
55
What does optimal conditions mean?
pH or temperature enzymes work best at
56
What is the optimal pH or pepsin, lipase and amylase? What is the optimal temp for all 3 enzymes?
Pepsin- 2 Lipase and amylase- 7 All 3- 98.6 or 37 degrees
57
What is the indicator of amylase?
Lugols solution (starch) Benedict’s (glucose)
58
What is the indicator for fat?
Litmus
59
What happens with starch experiment?
Starch with lugols is black and blue because of starch Amylase treated with starch and lugols is yellow because amylase digests starch Amylase treated with starch and Benedict’s is red because there is glucose present from the amylase digesting to starch and leaving glucose
60
What happens with the protein experiment?
Water and pepsin with egg in neutral pH is clear with no reaction because pepsin’s optimal pH is acidic (2) Water and pepsin with egg in acidic is foggy pH digests egg because it was is the optimal pH of pepsin Water and pepsin with egg in basic pH is clear because pepsin’s optimal pH is acidic not basic
61
What happens in the fat experiment?
Cream plus litmus plus lipase is purple because there is fat present but lipase doesn’t digest it all Cream plus litmus plus lipase plus bile salts is red because bile salts help break down fat so lipase can digest it effectively Cream plus litmus plus bile salt is blue because bile salts by itself can’t digest fat
