17
Q

What organ is known as the “abdominal policeman”

A

Greater omentum

18
Q

How does the stomach mechanically digest food?

A

Muscularis externa

19
Q

How does the stomach chemically digest food?

A

Hydrochloric acid

20
Q

What helps expand the stomach?

A

Rugae

21
Q

What are the 4 regions of the stomach?
List if their role is mainly digestive or mucous?

A

Cardia- mucous
Fundus- digestive
Body- digestive
Pyloris- mucous

22
Q

Stomach’s outside protective layer is called ____________

A

Tunica serosa

(has 3 Smooth muscle layers under it)

23
Q

Describe angle of the stomach muscle layers

A

Outside- longitudinal
Middle-circular
Innermost- oblique

24
Q

Parietal cells in stomach produce _______

A

HCl

25
Q

Chief cells in stomach produce ____________

A

precursors of digestive enzymes (like pepsin, rennin, lipase)

26
Q

What are 3 things that can cause peptic ulcer

A

1) Excessive HCl
2) long-term NSAID use
3) Helicobacter pylorii infection

27
Q

What 4 things does the small intestine do?

A

Raises pH of food as it exits pyloric sphincter

Adds bile from liver

Adds digestive enzyme from pancreas

Absorbs nutrients

28
Q

What are the 3 regions of the small intestine?

A

Duodenum
Jejunum
Ileum

29
Q

Why can celiac disease cause malabsorption?

A

Celiac disease creates an immune response to gluten and the inflammation harms the villi. The villi are essential to nutrient absorption.

30
Q

What is the role of the duodenum?

A

Neutralizes gastric content acidity

Controls release of pancreatic enzymes & bile

31
Q

What about the duodenum helps it neutralize the acidity?

A

Mucous and bicarbonate secretions

32
Q

Describe what happens in the duodenum in the following 4 sections

A

1st – Superior: receives gastric contents.

2nd – Descending: receives common bile duct from liver and pancreas.

3rd – Inferior: passes posterior to
the superior mesenteric vessels.

4th – Ascending: anchored by suspensory muscle/ligament,
becomes jejunum thereafter.

33
Q

The suspensory muscle / duodenum ligament is an extension of the ____________________

A

Right crura of Diaphgram

34
Q

In order to see the 2nd and 3rd part of the small intestine, what do we need to lift?

A

The greater omentum

35
Q

Jejunum is typically located in what quadrant?

A

LUQ

36
Q

Ileum is typically located in what quadrant?

A

RLQ

37
Q

What makes the jejunum different than the duodenum and ileum?

A

Jejunum has no special structures such as submucosa

38
Q

Proteins & carbs mainly travel through _____________

Fat mainly travels through ______________

A

intestinal veins

lymphatic ducts
