Q

What are the three steps of peristalisis

A

Q

Where does protein digestion occur first

A

Stomach

17
Q

What’s the function of the digestive system

A

Food transport/processing through the alimentary canal

And assistance from accessory organs

18
Q

What prevents food from entering the trachea during the swallowing process

A

Epiglottis

19
Q

What does the esophagus contain

A

-Hollow muscular tube

-crosses diaphragm (hiatus) and terminates at stomach
• LES/ caradic

20
Q

What does the swallowing process consist of

A

1) Buccal phase (occurs in mouth)
2) Pharyngeal Phase
3) Esophageal phase
4) Bolus enters stomach (LES opens to allow food in and class closes quickly)

21
Q

When is the epiglottis up during the swallowing phase

A

Buccal phase

22
Q

When is the epiglottis down during the swallowing process

A

Pharyngeal phase

23
Q

What shape is the stomach

A

J-shaped

24
Q

Where is the pyloric sphincter located near the stomach

A

Bottom of stomach

25
Q

What are the three muscles called that wrapped the stomach

A
Longitudinal
Circular
Oblique
       •mechanical digestion
       • mixes Bolus with stomach secretion -> chyme
26
Q

When do the LES and pyloric sphincter both open

A

For emeisis aka vomitting

27
Q

What are the advantages and disadvantages of Gastric bypass

A

•Advantages
Reduce weight
Reverses diabetes and apnea
Hunger feeling reduced

•disadvantages
Vitamin and mineral deficiencies
-amenia, osteoporosis
