Module 5 - Digestive System Flashcards
triggered by intrinsic desire for food
Hunger
part of teeth used for cutting
Incisors
part of teeth used for grinding
Posterior teeth
when food is mixed with secretion; also it’s a sideways movement
Churning
forward movement during swallowing
Peristalsis
results to vomit
Reverse Peristalsis
causes diarrhea; (PNS Fiber)
Increase Peristalsis
causes constipation
Decrease Peristalsis
can stretch muscles(?) lining
Bolus
conversion of a more complex form of a substance into its simple form
Absorbable forms
when fatty acids and monoglycerides are mainly used as triglycerides and formed into this to transport into the lymphatic vessels
Chylomicrons
causes the brown feces coloration
Stercobilin
Odoriferous products of Feces
indole, skatole, mercaptans, hydrogen sulfide
provides lubrication and protection for all parts of GIT
Mucous Glands
contains ECF (bicarbonate, sodium chloride) thus saliva is alkaline
Oxyntic glands
has mucus secretion, pepsinogen, and gastrin
Pyloric glands
a hormone that helps in stimulating Hydrochloric acid (Hcl) secretion by oxyntic glands
Gastrin
stimulates the release of secretin from duodenal mucosa
Acidic Chyme
to release pancreatic juice
Secretin
yields peptides
Chymotrypsin & Trypsin
yields amino acids
Carboxypolypeptidase
hydrolyzes starches and glycogen
Pancreatic Amylase
Maltose to yield glucose
Pancreatic Maltase
emulsifies neutral fats/triglycerides into fatty acids and glycerol
Pancreatic Lipase
hydrolysis cholesterol esters
Cholesterol esterase
splits fatty acids into phospholipids
Phospholipase
performs the “ferrying” function
Micelles
a basic stimuli, and with the release of Cholecystokinin or CCK, thus causing release of Bile
Fatty Chyme
helps emulsify the large fat particles to ease the digestion of smaller fat particles with digestive enzymes
Bile
large fat globules are broken down into smaller fat particles
Emulsification of Fats
secretes mucus to protect the duodenal wall from digestion by the highly acid gastric juice emptying from the stomach
Brunner’s Glands
Intestinal Hormones
Secretin & CCK
Cell that secretes mucin
Goblet cells
cells that secretes water and electrolytes
Enterocytes
presence of acidic chyme stimulates the release of
secretin
In the small intestine, enterocytes will absorb glucose with the help of __________
Sodium Glucose Linked Transporters (SGLT)
Inside the enterocyte, the glucose is then transported into the bloodstream thru __________________ on the basal surface
Glucose Transporter Type 2 (GLUT 2)
What is secreted that will function by breaking down maltose into glucose
Pancreatic Maltase
True or False
There is NO sympathetic innervation of the salivary gland
True
Sound of vomiting
Retching
