Q

What does the cephalic phase consist of

A

Sight,smell, sound

•sight of food activates PNS

 - signals via vagus nerve (ANS)
 - cells in gastric pit activated

Q

What does the gastric phase consist of

A

Depends on stomach stimuli

  • stretch of stomach
  • increased pH
  • proteins (empty slow)
  • carbs, alcohol, coffee (empty quickly)

Q

What does the intestinal phase consist of

A

-food moves on to intestine
-chyme emptying is controlled to maximize absorption
•pyloric sphincter
-enterogastric reflex activated as intestines are stretched
•gastric glands inhibited
•intestine hormone secretion activated
decreased intestinal pH

Q

What does the duodenum consist of

A

Receives stomach chyme and pancreas secretion

21
Q

What does the jejunum consists of

A

Chemical digestion and nutrient absorption

22
Q

What does the ileum consist of

A

Peyers patches

Ileocecal valve

23
Q

What are the internal features of the small intestine

A

Plica circularis: surface area ( does not expand like rugae)

Lacetal

  • lymph vessel
  • fat absorption

Capillary beds
-facilitate absorption

24
Q

What are the external fractures of the small intestine

A

Mucus cells

Microvilli

25
If food enters the stomach what happens to pH
It increases
26
small proteins and carbs enter ________ for nutrient transport
Capillaries -direct transport to liver
27
Larger lipids enter ______ for nutrient transport
Lacetals - make a round trip in the lymph system - enter CV system via large vein - eventually circulate to liver
28
What are the components of the liver
Hepatocytes adjust nutrient content Bile production (break up lipids) Bile stored in gallbladder Bile is recycled
29
What are hepatocytes
Liver cells
30
What are the characteristic of hepatocytes
-receives venous blood from digestive organs -has reserve to add nutrients: carbs, lipids, proteins •under hormonal control •nutrients exit via leaky capillaries
31
What does bile production in the liver consists of
Emulsification Salt breaks up lipids
32
What does bile stored in the gallbladder consists of
CCK tiggers release * duodenum horomone * opens hepatopancreatic sphincter * Gall stores form from bile salt if too concentrated
33
Where is bile reabsorbed
Ileum
34
Do you need your gallbladder
No
35
The liver secretes roughly how much per day
1 liter
36
What are the characteristics of the pancreas
Shared structure -digestive (exocrine) •makes enzymes and buffers (pancreatic juices) in acini •neutralizes stomach acid
37
What does trysinogen (proenzyme) activate
Intestine secretions
38
What's the transport that occurs in the pancreas
To duodenum via pancreatic duct
39
How long is food in the intestine
5 he's
40
Absorption in the pancreas is regulated by
Duodenum hormones
41
What are the duodenum hormones
GIP CCK VIP
42
What are the different parts in the large intestine
Cecum Colon Rectum
43
What does the cecum do
Ilieocecal valve
44
What does colon do
Stores waste Reabsorbs water Harbors bacteria
45
What does the rectum do
Anal canal Anus - internal sphincter is involuntary - external sphincter is voluntary
46
What are the functions of the large intestine
Stores waste Reabsorbs water Harbor bacteria Little absorption (
47
What content is contain in the large intestine when it harbor Bacteria
Obtain vitamin K, biotin, and B5 Make hydrogen sulfide gas Eat non digestible carbs
48
Glands in the large intestine contain mostly
Mucus cells
49
Why is poop brown
Heme from RBC breaks down into bilirubin (yellow color) in liver Bilirubin ----> urobilin and stercobilin
