Q

True or False? The 3 phases of acid secretion cannot happen concurrently.

A

F. can happen all at once

30
Q

Cephalic phase of acid secretion is via:

A

the vagus, extrinsic nerve, leads to acetylcholine release

31
Q

Is there (direct, indirect, or both) secretion of H+ in cephalic phase?

A

both

32
Q

Food inhibits this so that G cells will be stimulated, thereby secreting H+.

A

somatostatin

33
Q

a pH under __ will inhibit gastrin release.

A

3

34
Q

What stops the release of gastrin?

A

increase in pH due to food entering stomach

35
Q

True or False? The vaso-vagal reflex leads to decreased G-cells and parietal cell secretion.

A

F. increased

36
Q

This neurotransmitter is involved in the local response:

A

acetylcholine, stimulate G cells or parietal cells to secrete

37
Q

Substances that stimulate parietal cells or G cells in the lumen of the intestines:

A

amino acids, proteins, caffeine, calcium, ethanol

38
Q

Food in the stomach act on these cell types:

A

G cells and parietal cells

39
Q

3 ways proteins can cause acid release:

A

g cells in the duodenum release gastrin that will signal increase acid secretion in stomach, protein stimulate endocrine cells, amino acids in the blood can circulate back and stimulate parietal cells

40
Q

Stimulation of the vagus because of chewing, swallowing, smell, or taste can lead to the release of:

A

GRP or acetylcholine

41
Q

Distention that triggers local reflexes uses this neurotransmitter:

A

acetylcholine

42
Q

Both __ and __ G cells can lead to the release of gastrin.

A

gastric and intestinal

43
Q

4 stimuli of parietal cells:

A

acetylcholine, gastrin, circulating amino acids, histamine

44
Q

What does the decrease in pH of the stomach after all the food is gone stimulate?

A

somatostatin release which inhibits gastrin release

45
Q

List 3 enterogastrones:

A

Secretin, CCK, and GIP

46
Q

What effect do enterogastrones have?

A

inhibit parietal and G cells

47
Q

True or False? GERD is life threatening.

A

T

48
Q

How long does it take for food to go down the esophagus?

A

8 sec

49
Q

Does pressure increase or decrease at the LES?

A

decrease

50
Q

True or False? The esophageal peristaltic wave is due to spontaneous muscle activity.

A

F. Vagal nuclei in brainstem

51
Q

What activates the second wave contraction in the esophagus?

A

stretch receptors in the esophagus activate a reflex stimulation via the vagus

52
Q

LES opening and closing:

A

LES is normally closed. Before the pressure wave, the vagus signals the LES to relax and makes sure to send extra ACh after the opening to make sure it closes.

53
Q

3 neurotransmitters of the myenteric and submucosal plexus:

A

Relaxation: VIP and NO, contraction: Acetylcholine

54
Q

Neurotransmitters of the myenteric and submucosal plexus that are neurotransmitter sympathetic or parasympathetic:

A

purinergic

55
Q

When are VIP/ NO released?

A

Inhibitory motor neurons are signaled by the vagus and have receptors for acetylcholine which then release VIP or NO

56
Q

True or False? CCK causes contraction of the stomach.

A

F. relaxation, leading to food storage

57
Q

True or False? If a meal is present in the stomach there is more calcium and more contractions.

A

T

58
Q

How is slow wave electrical information being passed from cell to cell?

A

gap junctions

59
Q

2 ways to control gastric peristalsis:

A

Vagal stimulaiton via acetylcholine OR gastrin

60
Q

How does gastrin affect calcium?

A

raises levels in the smooth muscle cells

61
Q

True or False? Vagal stimulation via acetylcholine and gastrin release can both occur just by thinking about food.

A

T

62
Q

Fats inhibit gastric emptying via:

A

CCK

63
Q

Acids inhibit gastric emptying via:

A

purinergic stimulation

64
Q

How can vagal stimulation affect gastric emptying?

A

deviation from isotonicity lowers vagal stimulation and inhibits gastric emptying

65
Q

What type of stimulation does H+ in the duodenum lead to?

A

purinergic stimulation leading to the relaxation of the sphincter

66
Q

True or False? Osmoreceptors causing the vagus not to release as much acetylcholine is a purinergic response.

A

F

67
Q

Fats in the duodenum cause the stomach to:

A

relax

68
Q

True or False? Vomiting is activated by the stimulation of smooth muscle.

A

F. skeletal muscle

69
Q

Where is the vomiting center?

A

at the pons-medulla junction

70
Q

True or False? Control of vomiting is via both the CNs and the spinal cord.

A

T. proximal GI organs, diaphragm and abdominal muscles

71
Q

What happens in the stomach during vomiting?

A

stomach doesn’t contract much more and becomes looser, strong contraction of abdominal muscles propels the food
