Masseter, lateral pterygoid, medial pterygoid, temporalis

19
Q

Chemical digestion - 2

A

Trachea (anterior), esophagus

21
Q

Esophagus muscle types by 1/3

A

Proximal 1/3 - skeletal
Middle 1/3 mixed
Distal 1/3 - smooth

22
Q

Deglutition - 3 stages, what follows it

A

Voluntary
Pharyngeal
Esophageal
Peristalsis in Esophageal phase

23
Q

Stomach parts including folds and two curves - 8

A
Lesser curve, Greater curve
Cardia, fundus
Body
Pylorus, pyloric sphincter
Rugae - folds
24
Types of epithelium in Stomach - 3, 2 juices + factor absorbs what
Mucous neck cells Parietal - produce intrinsic factor, absorbs vitamin B-12 Chief cells - produce pepsinogen, gastric lipase Pepsinogen cleaves to pepsin in small intestine, breaks down proteins
25
Pancreas - sections - 3, ducts - 2, ends in
Head, body, tail Main pancreatic duct, accessory pancreatic duct Hepatopancreatic ampulla (Vater), empties into duodenum
26
Type of most pancreatic cells (exocrine), juices produced - 4
``` 99% acini (acinar cells) Pancreatic amylase - starch Trypsin, chymotrypsin, carboxypepsidase, elastase - proteins Pancreatic lipase - triglycerides (deoxy)ribonuclease - RNA/DNA ```
27
Liver/gallbladder ducts - 5
R/L hepatic to common hepatic duct, branches to cystic duct (gallbladder) and common bile duct Common bile duct joins main pancreatic duct at Vater ampulla
28
Liver - 4/5 major components
Hepatocytes - secrete bile, transport and emulsify fat Bile canaliculi - small bile capillaries, lead to bile ducts Hepatic sinusoids - Hepatic artery, hepatic portal vein
29
Functions of liver - 8
Produce bile, emulsify and transport fat, lacteals Carb metabolism - store glycogen, glucose glycogen Lipid metabolism - synthesize cholesterol, store triglycerides Protein metabolism - synthesize blood proteins - albumin Detoxification - alcohol, drugs Excrete bilirubin Store vitamin A, D, E, K, B12 Activation of vitamin D
30
Bile - pH, pigment, tasks, stored
pH is basic pigment is bilirubin, breakdown of RBC Stored and concentrated in gallbladder Emulsifies and transports fat
31
Small intestine parts, small to large
Duodenum Jejunum Ileum
32
Small intestine absorption (blood&lymph), protection - 3
Villi, microvilli - absorb nutrients, large surface area Lacteals - lymphatic capillaries, carry away nutrients (Fat), reabsorb bile Peyer's patches - participate in neutralizing pathogens
33
Intestinal juice - where comes from, how it gets into intestine
Brush border enzyme - sits in microvilli, they break apart, juice flows into lumen
34
Most absorbtion occurs where, methods - 4
``` Small intestine Diffusion Facilitated diffusion Osmosis Active transport ```
35
Large intestine parts - 10
Vermiform appendix - holds bacteria for when wiped out in intestines Cecum - connects to ileum Ascending/transverse/descending/sigmoid colon R/L (hepatic/splenic) colic flexure Rectum, anus
36
Movement in colon - 4, main job
Teniae coli - band of muscle along colon Haustra - segment of colon Haustral churning - churn within one haustra Mass peristalsis - move everything along toward rectum Absorb or add water to chyme/feces
37
Name of chunk of food as it passes digestive system - 3
Bolus in mouth, esophagus, stomach Chyme in small intestine, large intestine Feces in Large intestine
38
