29
Q

Esophageal phase

A

“Peristalsis” drive bolus downward

Esophageal sphincter admits it into the stomach

30
Q

Stomach intro

A

Mechanically breaks up food —-> liquifies —> chemical digestion of protein and fat

CHYME = liquified portion of food

Absorption = chyme passed on to small intestines.

31
Q

Innervation of stomach

A

Parasympathetic —> fibers from vagus nerve

Sympathetic —> fibers from celiac ganglia

Stomach + intestines = drainage —> enters hepatic portal circulation —> filtered through liver

32

Q

Cells of gastric glands: Cheif cells

A

Secrete pepsinogen in infancy (protein)

35
Q

Cells of gastric glands: Enteroendocrine cells

A

Secrete hormones and paracrine messengers that regulate digestion

G cell produce Gastrin

36
Q

Intrinsic factor (parietal cells)

A

Essential for B12 absorption by small intestine

Necessary for hemoglobin synthesis (not enough= anemia) RBC production

37
Q

Pepsin (chief cells)

A

Protein digestion —> Secreted by pepsinogen

HCI converts pepsinogen to pepsin (removes its amino acids)

38
Q

Gastric lipase (chief ells)

A

Gastric / lingual lipase play minor role in digestion dietary fats

39
Q

Chemical messengers( g cells)

A

Many produced by enteroendocrine cells of gastric and pyloric glands

40
Q

Protection of stomach

A

Protected 3 ways BC HARSH ACIDIC —> ENZYMATIC ENVIRONMENT CREATED

Mucous coat

Tight junction: between epithelial cells prevent gastric juice from seeping between them

Epithelial cell replacement : live 3-6 days

Sloughed off into chyme and digested with food

Replaced rapidly B cell division in gastric pits

41
Q

Bile duct system

A

Right and Left hepatic Ducts

-collect bile form all bile ducts

Unit a common hepatic duct—> leaves liver

BILE flow —> common bile duct or cystic duct (leads to gallbladder)

42
Q

Bile

A

Yellow-green fluid containing minerals, cholesterol, neutral fats, phospholipids, bile pigments, bile acids

43
Q

Pancreas

A

Retroperitoneal gland (posterior to greater curvature of stomach)

44
Q

Small intestine : Duodenum

A

“Mixing bowl” receives chyme from stomach and digestive secretion. From pancreas and liver

Neutralizes stomach acids, emulsifies fats, pepsin inactivated by pH increase, pancreatic enzymes

45
Q

Small intestine : Jejunum

A

Chemical digestion and nutrient absorption occur here

46
Q

Small intestine: Ileum

A

Ends ileocecal junction

47
Q

Circulation

A

Small intestine receives nearly blood supply from Superior mesenteric artery

Superior mesenteric vein

Splenic vein and flows into hepatic portal system

48
Q

segmentation

A

Most common movement (mix and churn)

Peristaltic (moves chyme towards large intestines/colon)

49
Q

Carbohydrates

A

Most dietary carbohydrate : starch

Digestion begins in mouth —> salivary amylase —> hydrolyze starch —> oligosaccharides

Amylase —> pH of 6.8 -7 of oral

50% of dietary starch digested before reaching small intestine

Pancreatic amylase —> resumes starch digestion in intestine

Starch -> oligosaccharide -> Maltose Glucose -> absorbed by small intestines

50
Q

Proteins

A

Digest proteins -> proteases

Absent in saliva BUTTTT work in stomach

Stomach (pepsin)

Small intestine (action of pancreatic enzyme)

51
Q

Lipids

A

Fats emulsified than digested by lipase enzymes

52
Q

Nucleic acids, vitamins, minerals

A

Nucleases —> hydrolyze DNA and RNA into nucleotides

Vitamins —> are absorbed unchanged

Minerals —> electrolytes are absorbed all along the small intestine

53
Q

Water

A

Water absorbed by osmosis —> absorption of salts and organic nutrients

54
Q

Protein digestion and absorption

A

Pepsinogen is converted to pepsin BYYYYY HCI —> chemical digestion protein

55
Q

Male/female combine their eggs

A

gametes (sex cells) = zygote (fertilized egg)

56
Q

What does the male reproductive system serves as?

A

Produce sperm and introduce them into female body

57
Q

What does female reproductive system serves as?

Secrete testosterone 8-9 weeks

Testes secrete mullerian-inhibiting factor causing degeneration of the paramesonephric ducts

61
