Secretion and Digestion Flashcards
Oral mucosa and esophagus epithelium
Stratified squamous non-keratinized
Which glands are part of the columnar epithelium
Unicellular glands
Mucous cells and goblet cells are
Unicellular glands
Endocrine glands secrete
Hormones
Location of exocrine glands
Submucosa
Exocrine glands secrete
Enzymes
Location of exocrine glands
Submucosa
Most glands in digestive tube are
Exocrine
Enzymes are generated as
Proenzymes
Main function of mucus
Protection
Buffer effect
Adherance
First process of secretion of glands
Nutrient entry through capillaries for protein synthesis
Second process of secretion of glands
Synthesis and folding in ER
Modification in golgi apparatus
Result of second step in secretion of glands
Zymogen granules
Stimuli for vesicle secretion in glands
Hormone arrival
Parasympathetic nervous system stimuli
Most alkaline secretion
Pancreatic secretion
Brunner glands
Most acidic secretion
Gastric secretion
2 types of salivary secretion
Serosa
Mucous
