16
Q

zymogens

A

protein breakdown
inactive proenzymes
protection against constant digestion
activated by proteolytic pathway (trypsinogen->trypsin in pancreas)

17
Q

proteins

A

chains of AA’s

18
Q

endopeptidase

A

digest inside

19
Q

exopeptidase

A

digest outside

20
Q

gallbladder

A

store bile
released to promote digestion of fats

21
Q

emulsify

A

break down into smaller compartments
allows bile to be soluble in h2o

22
Q

cylomicrones

A

repackages fats made available to rest of body

23
Q

cephalic digestion

A

feedforward response
preparation to recieve food

24
Q

gastric digestion

A

gastrin secretion
acid secretion
enzyme secretion
pancreas secretion= somatastain, mucous, bicarbonate

25
enteric ns
nerves in small intestine that talk to the brain autoregulation of movement of the digestive system
26
mesentary
combo of the peritoneum that hold the intestines in place connective tissue
27
blood vessels and lymph nodes
aid in absorption in small intestine and stomach
28
processes of digestive system
digestion secretion absorption motility
29
exocrine secretion organs
salivary glands pancreas liver (bile)
30
pathway of digestive system
oral cavity->bolus->esophagus->stomach->chyme->small intestine->large intestines->feces
31
immune function
as many as 80% of lymphocytes are found in the small intestine
32
smooth muscle
aid in motility in the digestive system
33
Spincters
LES (esophagus->stomach) PS (stomach->small intestine) ICS (small intestine->large intestine) IAS (rectum->anus)
34
absorption
movement of material from GI lumen to ECF
35
secretion
movement of material from cells into lumen or ECF
36
mucosa
inter lining of the GI tract (epithelial and subepithelial connective tissue)
37
submucosa
connective tissue with larger blood and lymph vessels and the submucosal plexus, a major nerve network of the enteric nervous system
38
muscularis externa
two layers of smooth muscle (inner circular and outer longitudinal layer) with the myenteric plexus (another nerve network of the enteric nervous system) between the layers
