Q

stimulus of cephalic phase

A

sight, smell, thought, taste of food stimulates brain

17
Q

cephalic phase response…

A

salivation and stomach acid secretion (prepping body for food)

18
Q

chemical digestion in deudenum

A

release of sodium bicarbonate

19
Q

chemical digestion in the jejunum

A

digestive enzymes of the brush border (brushy area of small intestine with all the enzymes)

20
Q

gastrin acts on and does…

A

stomach and promotes gastric juice secretion

21
Q

secretin acts on…

A

pancreas and puts more bicarb in pan juice

22
Q

histamine

A

parietal cells of the stomach, increases acid secretion

23
Q

motilin does..

A

acts on many digestive organs; increases migrating myoelectric complexes, increase pepsin, increase bowel motility

24
Q

CCK job

A

eject bile and open the hepatopancreatic sphincter

25
histamine is made by...
mast cells in lamina propria
26
laxatives like senocot irritate nerves in the bowel wall and produce...
increased bowel movement
27
laxatives like golytely increase concentration of non absorbed salts in the colon produing:
increased bowel movement
28
what increases bowel movement?
chyme vol, chemical composition (stim. sensory nerves), osmolarity (non absorable chemicals cause water to be drawn into lumen)
29
peristalis
involuntary movement of bolus from mouth to anus
30
bolus vs chyme
chyme is in the stomach, bolus is in the mouth to the stomach,
