Gastric glands are: mucous neck cells, parietal cells, chief cells and G cells.

34
Q

important information of the stomach

A

contains gastric glands to secrete gastric juice into the lumen. Gastric pits.

35
Q

gastric pits

A

communicate with the stomach and transport gastric glands.

36
Q

parts of the small intestine

A
  • duodenum: chyme, pancreatic juice, bile and vili
  • jejunum
  • ileum
37
Q

parts of colon

A
  • ileocecal sphincter (from the ileum to the colon)
  • ascending colon
  • transverse colon
  • descending colon

absorbs most of the water transforming it to faces

38
Q

parts in the rectum and anus

A
  • internal anal sphincter: smooth muscle

- external anal sphincter: controls opening, skeletal muscle

39
Q

what do salivary glands contain to digest food?

A

bicarbonate to neutralize acid
salivary amylase (enzymes)
mucus to lubricate food
lysozyme to destroy bacteria

40
Q

types of pancreas

A
  • exocrine pancreas: numerous acini and their associated ducts
  • endocrine pancreas: pancreatic islets scattered among acini ducts
41
Q

acini

A

produce and secrete digestive enzymes

42
Q

parts of the liver

A
secretion of bile
metabolic processing of nutrients
removal of aged red blood cells of the blood
elimination of wastes from the body
synthesis of plasma proteins
secretion and modification of hormones
storage of essential molecules
43
Q

endopeptidase

A

split peptides at interior peptidase bonds producing smaller peptides

44
Q

exopeptidase

A

split amino acids from one end of the polypeptide producing amino acids

45
Q

zymogens

A

inactive substance which is converted into an enzyme when activated by another enzyme

46
Q

how does water absorbtion work?

A

via osmosis and sodium is therefore important

47
Q

pepsinogen concentration depends on…

A

…changes in acid secretion

48
Q

adic secretion in stomach controlled by…

A

…cephalicphase, gastric phase, intestinal phase

49
Q

secretion pancratic juice and bile, how does it happen?

A

regulated by the hormones secretin and CCK (cholecystokinin) produced by the walls of the duodenum with the presence of food and the action of autonomic innervation

50
Q

CCK (cholecystokinin)

A

stimulates the gallbladder to contract and release stored bile into the intestine. It also stimulates the secretion of pancreatic juice,

51
Q

open circulation system

A

NO small blood vessels or capillaries interfacing with cells or connecting arteries with veins

52
Q

closed circulation system

A

fluid and blood is confined to vessels. Therefore blood pressure higher than in open circulation systems

53
Q

atrium

A

each of the two upper cavities of the heart from which blood is passed to the ventricles.

54
Q

simple circulatory system

A

paired aortic arches, 1 atrium, 1 ventricle
less blood pressure
reduction aortic arch I and II
aquatic

55
Q

double circulatory system

A

can carry a lot of O2
increased blood flow
2 atria, 2 ventricles, valves, suculus coronarius

56
Q

lymph nodes produce

A

lymphocytes

57
Q

lymphatic system functions

A
  • return of excess interstitial fluid to blood circulation (via thoracic duct)
  • defence/immunity and response to infections (via lymphocytes)
  • return of triglycerides to blood circulation (via lacteals in small intestine)
