Q

STOMACH
hydrochloric acid

A

functions:
1. activates pepsinogen into pepsin

  1. provides acidic medium for action of pepsin
  2. kills bacteria in stomach
  3. breaks down fat molecules into smaller molecules

16
Q

PANCREAS
amylopsin

A

amylase–> carbs—> glucose

17
Q

PANCREAS
steapsin

A

lipase–> fats —> fatty acids and glycerol

18
Q

PANCREAS
trypsinogen

A

protease —> proteins —> polypeptides —> peptides

19
Q

SMALL INTESTINE
walls of small intestine produce

A

intestinal juice

20
Q

SMALL INTESTINE
intestinal juice contains

A

erepsin
enterokinase

21
Q

SMALL INTESTINE
erepsin

A

protein digestion is complete
protein–> amino acid

22
Q

PANCREAS
steapsin only acts when

A

emulsification of fats takes place first

23
Q

PANCREAS
pancreatic ducts produces

A

alkaline secretion

24
Q

SMALL INTESTINE
adaptions for absorption

A
  1. villi and microvilli provide large surface area for absorption of food substances
  2. mucosa layer provides a large surface area
  3. mucus lining circular folds provides large surface area
25
SMALL INTESTINE what is absorbed into the lacteal acid of the villi; which is connected to lymphatic vessel
fatty acids and glycerol
26
SMALL INTESTINE villi is completely surrounded by
blood capillaries
27
LIVER production of
urea
28
LIVER urea is removed by
kidneys
29
LIVER brunner's gland produces
thich alkaline mucus secretion that neutralizes HCl
30
LIVER 3 blood vessels
hepatic artery hepatic vein hepatic portal vein
31
LIVER liver cells are
hepatocytes
32
LIVER intestinal lining has
circular folds provide large surface area and provide large # of villi, microvilli
33
LIVER liver functional units
liver lobule
34
LIVER liver lobule
6 sides bile duct: green hepatic portal vein: blue hepatic artery: red
35
LIVER liver cells
hepatocytes
36
LIVER liver functions
1. bile is produced by liver for emulsifaction of fats 2. urea is produces by liver by the process of deamination 3. detoxifaction is done by the liver by destroying poisonous toxins that enter the body 4. storage of glycogen and fats 5. activation of vitamin D: 25-hydroxocholecalciferol 6. phagocytic 7. secretes insulin 8. helps in blood clotting by producing fibrinogen and prothrombine 9. digestive factors
37
INTESTINE 2 types of movement
segementation peristalsis
38
INTESTINE segmentation
not controlled by nervous system myogenic: contraction of muscles in small intestine: digestion and absorption promoted
39
INTESTINE peristalsis
propel the chyle along the small intestine
