A

Gastric Juice

23
Q

secrete mucous as a lubricant.

A

Mucouse cells

24
Q

secrete hydrogen ions and chloride ions that combine in the lumen to form HCI

A

Parietal cells

25
secrete pepsinogen, an inactive form of the enzyme pepsin.
Chief cells
26
produces pancreatic digestive enzymes and an alkaline solution.
Pancreas
27
produces bile with salts that break down fats.
Liver
28
stores bile until it is needed in the small intestine.
gallbladder
29
first 25cm of the small intestine.
duodenum
30
contains a mass of white blood cells to make a small contribution to immunity.
Appendix
31
larger in herbivores
Cecum
32
deficient calories
Undernourishment
33
missing essential nutrients
Malnourishment
34
excess calories.
Over nourishment
35
what are the 4 types of ingestion
suspension, fluid, substrate, and bulk
36
3 requirements for a healthy diet
Fuel to power bodily activities, organic building blocks for synthesis, Essential nutrients that the body cannot produce itself.
37
Proteins, carbs, and fats are too physically large to pass through
cell membranes
38
In 5-10 seconds
food makes its way to the stomach
39
Food stays in the stomach for
2-6 hours
40
After the stomach food goes to the small intestine for absorption and stays there for
5-6 hours
41
Undigested material passes through the large intestine in
12-24 hours
42
Stomachs are the main reason animals do not have to
eat constantly
43
The stomach can hold up to
2 liters of food and water
44
Pepsin is responsible for the digestion of
Proteins
45
Epithelium is constantly eroded in the stomach and is replaced about every
3 days
46
The small intestine is responsible for the
majority of absorption
