1
Q

Digestion

A

Process of breaking down food into simpler forms through mechanical and chemical manipulation in the Gastrointestinal tract (GI), resulting in the absorption of nutrients

-products come in, degraded via chemical digestion, things are absorbed from that

A

accessory structure

39
Q

Peritoneum

A

serosal membrane

  • visceral
  • parietal
40
Q

Intraperitoneal:

A
  • encased

- stomach liver, ileum

41
Q

A
  • anterior only

- kidneys, uterus

42
Q

  • support organs
  • vasculature, lymphatic, nervous connections
44
Q

Greater omentum

A

encases all of the intestine

45

movements associated w speech

53
Q

Buccal

A

voluntary (to a point), swallowing can be initiated by bolus reaching oropharynx
-Bolus at hard plate

  • TOUNGE RETRACTS:
  • -Bolus at soft plate
  • -soft palate elevation
  • -Nasopharynx isolation
54
Q

Initiation of swallowing is ______ but after it starts the rest of the steps are involuntary

A

voluntary

55
Q

bolus

A

what will end up in the stomach

56
Q

steps of swallowing?? buccal phase (1)

A

Tongue pushes food bolus up against hard palate then soft palate
Pharynx constricts and closes off soft palate which isolates nasal pharynx, prevents food from going into nasal cavity

57
Q

Pharyngeal:

A

involuntary

  • Larynx elevation (closes epiglottis)
  • pharyngeal muscles squeeze bolus to esophagus
58
Q

steps of swallowing?? pharyngeal phase (2)

A

Larynx elevates, folds down epiglottis, all pharyngeal muscles (throat) will constrict and squeeze bolus down into esophagus

59
Q

Esophageal

  • involuntary
  • -opening of upper esophageal sphincter
  • -esophagus
  • -Opening of lower esophageal sphincter
  • -stomach

-Bolus movement down esophagus via peristalsis

60
Q
steps of swallowing??
Esophageal phase (3)
A

Sphincter opens up, food bolus travels down esophagus towards stomach, another sphincter opens up and allows bolus in, sphincter closes back up and swallowing is done

61
Q
