Q

fx of microvilli

A

greatly increase the surface area of small intestine lining cells. Uses glycocalyx to increase adsorption of pancreatic enzymes and enhance digestion and absorption at the cell surface

Q

main functions of large intestine

A
  • microbial activity (mainly in the cecum)
  • absorption of water, electrolytes, vitamins (mainly in the colon)
  • secretion of lubricating mucus

17
Q

surface area is increased in the large intestine via

A

longitudinal plications (small intestine uses mainly circular folds)

18
Q

T or F: small intestine has greater blood supply than large intestine

19
Q

fxs of hepatocytes

A

1) secrete bile salts/acids, excrete bile pigments
2) synthesize sugars, plasma proteins, clotting factors, lipids, urea, ketone bodies
3) store lipids, vitamins, glycogen
4) transform toxins, drugs, hormones
5) metabolize lipids, proteins, carbs

20
Q

how do bile salts travel from central vein of hepatocyte to the bile duct?

A

via bile canaliculi

21
Q

Describe the organization of hepatocytes

A

Plates of hepatocytes are arranged in radial patterns, are surrounded by interlobular connective tissue, and are separated by sinusoids.

  • central vein in the center of each plate
  • portal triads in the interlobular connective tissue
  • 1 hepatocyte is assoc. with multiple sinusoids and canaliculi*
22
Q

what are the 3 components of a portal triad?

A

interlobular bile duct, hepatic artery, and hepatic portal v.

23
Q

importance of hepatic artery with respect to hepatic vasculature

A
  • supplies O2 and metabolic substrates

- supplies 1/5 of the sinusoidal volume

24
Q

importance of hepatic portal v. with respect to hepatic vasculature

A
  • brings substances from small intestine and spleen

- supplies 4/5 of the sinusoidal volume

25
drainage pathway from central vein to hepatic veins
central v. --> sinusoids --> sublobar vv. --> hepatic vv.
26
main fxs of the gallbladder
storage, concentration, and acidification
27
type of epithelium of tunica mucosa of gall bladder
simple columnar
28
tunica muscularis of gall bladder has smooth or striated m.?
smooth
29
pathway of bile from bile canaliculi to duodenum or gall bladder
bile canaliculi --> biliary ductules --> interlobar bile ducts --> intrahepatic ducts --> hepatic ducts --> cystic ducts --> gall bladder OR bile duct --> duodenum
30
cell types of the pancreas
- serous acinar cells - centroacinar cells - cuboidal epithelium - goblet cells
31
fx of serous acinar cells in the pancreas
secrete zymogen granules containing enzymes that are released into the duct system
32
fx of centroacinar cells in the pancreas
line acinus/adenomeres (collections of acinar cells that secrete into a common intralobular duct)
33
fx of cuboidal epithelium in the pancreas
lines intralobular and interlobular secretory ducts
34
fx of crop
An esophageal diverticulum that is used for storage of feed, and later regurgitation to young. Lies before the thoracic inlet
35
what is a proventriculus?
a bird's "stomach." Undergoes acidic and enzymatic digestion
36
the ventriculus includes what structure in birds?
the gizzard
37
the cloaca is a common opening for:
- GI - urinary - genital - Bursa of Fabricius (organ involved in hematopoiesis)
38
vent
outer opening of the cloaca
39
koilin
a carb-protein complex that lines and protects the muscles of the gizzard
40
T or F: the cecum is paired in birds
