2.3 Digestive System Liver, Pancreas Gallbladder Flashcards
(150 cards)
Parakeritinsed epithelium?
Hard palate/masticatory mucosa.
Superficial cells not pyknotic nuclei.
What is pyknotic ? Irreversible condensation of chromatin.
9 main areas of digestive system and function?
Oral cavity - ingestion and initial fragmentation
Tongue and pharynx
names for parotid and submandibular gland ducts?
Stensens and whartons duct
4 types of tongue papillae?
Filiform, fungiform, circumvallate, foliate
How to differentiate between oesophagus and ureter?
Muscularis externa - oesophagus inner circular outer longitudinal. Ureter - opposite
Organs of GI tract and accessory organ
Mouth, isthmus of fauces, oesophagus, stomach, si, li, cecum, rectum
Teeth, tongue, salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, pancreas
Glands of GI tract?
Intraepithelial - goblet cells
Mural
Intra - tunica : mucosa, submucosa
Extra - major salivary glands, liver, pancreas
Functions of digestive system? (6)
Ingestion, swallowing H+ secretion, digestive enzymes Mixing and propulsion Absorption Reabsorption of water and undigested mat Elimination of digested material - defecation
Oral cavity consists of?
What is the isthmus of fauces?
Cheeks, hard and soft palate, tongue
Space extends from gums + teeth
Fauces - opening between oral cavity + pharynx
Salivary glands (3)
Moist and clean oral cavity
Secretion of mucus increase - chemical digestion
3 pairs of glands
Frenulums - teeth?
Decidous - baby teeth, 6months, 20 by 2 years, fall out by 2-6 years
Permanent - 32 total, 3rd set of molars by end of adolecense (Widom teeth)
Tongue structure, extra (2)
Mostly muscular -
grip + reposition food
Swallowing
Speech
Taste buds - circumvallate, foliate, fungiform, filiform papillae
Lingual tonsils
What is the isthmus of fauces?
.
Pharynx (3)
Naso - respiratory
Oral - digestive and respiratory
Laryngo - digestive and respiratory
Opening of laryngopharynx regulated by
Epiglottis -> elastic cartilage - 9th cartilage of larynx
What are the different phases of swallowing?
.
Structure of pharynx ?
Muscular and adventitia
Pseudostratified ciliated
Oro+laryngopharnx -> ssnk
Striated skeletal muscle
Adventitia external to muscle
What are the pharyngeal aponeurosis?
Fibroelastic ct -> muscle insertion
Muscle of pharynx(3)
Innervation
Constrictor muscles
Sup, mid, inf
Squeeze bolus -> into esophagus
Vagus nerve
Esophagus (5)
Food swallow -> folding longitudinal of lumen
C6-T10
25cm length
Behind trachea
Passes thru oesophageal hiatus (diaphragm) -> enter abdomen
4 constrictions of esophagus?
4 parts and length?
Cricoid, aortic, bronchial, diaphragmatic
Cervical 4-5, mediastinic 16, diaphagmatic 1-2, abdominal 3
GI Tract - general structure 4
Describe first 2 and how increase SA of first?
Mucosa, submucosa, muscularis externa, serosa
Mucosa - epithelium, lamina propria (MALT LCT with capillaries)
Muscularis mucosa - thin layer of sm cells - local movements
Submucosa - CT - minor blood+lymph vessels , nerves - elastic fibres - regain shape
Plicae, microvilli, villi, glands/crypts
Last 2 layers of GI tract?
And innervation of muscularis externa
Muscularis externa - 2 layers of SM - peristalsis, segmentation
Inner circular - squeezes, formation of sphincters
Outer longitudinal - shortens gut
Myenteric plexus between ME.
Submucosal plexus of gi tract?
Meissner plexus -> control gland, sensory function, contraction of MM
