GI SYSTEM 2 Flashcards
STOMACH what is the function of stomach (3)
- mechanical processing
- digestion
- mix bolus and gastric juices
STOMACH how does stomach do mechanical processing
contracts muscles
STOMACH how does stomach do digestion
- secretes enzymes
- secretes chemicals
STOMACH what is chyme
mixture of bolus and gastric juices
STOMACH what is fundus
bony top of organ
STOMACH what is located in fundus of stomach
- air
2. cells that detect entrance of food
STOMACH what occurs in body of stomach
mechanical processing
STOMACH what is greater omentum attached to
greater curvature of stomach
STOMACH what are functions of greater omentum (2)
- deposit lipid
2. move to site of infection
STOMACH what kind of epithelium makes up mucosal layer
simple columnar epithelium
STOMACH what are 3 layers of smooth muscle in muscularis externis
- inner oblique
- middle circular
- outer longitudinal
STOMACH what does inner oblique layer contain
rugae
STOMACH what are rugae
folds
STOMACH what are gastric pits close to
lumen
STOMACH what is gastic gland close to
submucosa
STOMACH what layer are gastric pits + gastric glands a part of
mucosal layer
SECRETORY CELLS what is the function of surface mucosa cell
form thick layer of mucous to protect from HCl
SECRETORY CELLS what is the function of mucous neck cell
produce watery mucous
SECRETORY CELLS what is the function of parietal cell
produce HCl
SECRETORY CELLS what is the function of chief cell
produce pre-enzymes other than amylase
SECRETORY CELLS when do pre-enzymes secreted by chief cells become active
when they pass through mucous neck cell secretion
SECRETORY CELLS what is the function of neuroendocrine cell
produce gastrin
SECRETORY CELLS what is the function of gastrin
- stimulate parietal cells to produce secretions
2. stimulate chief cell to produce secretion
SECRETORY CELLS what cells are involved in protection
surface mucosa cell
