Q

Physiology of Esophagus

A
  • Transport Tube
  • Has 2 Sphincters
    • Upper Sphincter allows food in from Laryngopharynx
    • Lower Sphincter allows food into stomach & keeps acid out of esophagus (if doesn’t close- heart burn)

18
Q

Your pancreases empties what into the Duodenum ?

A

Buffers and digestive enzymes

19
Q

What 4 organs empty into the duodenum?

A

1- Stomach releases contents (very acidic)
2- Pancreases release buffers & digestive enzymes
3&4- Liver creates bile and gall bladder concentrates it
- released into duodenum to aid in digestion of fats

20
Q

Submucosa

A
  • Digestive glands here
  • blood Vessels
  • connective tissues
  • Peyers patches and blood vessels
21
Q

Muscularis

A
  • 2 sheets of smooth muscle
    (stomach has 3)
  • These nice food through GI track & Mia it w/ enzymes (in stomach the extra layer allows mechanical digestion)
22
Q

Ileus

A

When contraction stops
- Stomach stops making those wave like movements for a while

23
Q

Large intestine (colon) function

A

Water reabsorption & waste compaction
- Accomplished by bacteria in the colon
- These bacteria are regionally associated
- Also can affect general health

24
Q

Anatomy of large Intestine (colon)

A

The longitudinal muscles of the muscularis escape to run on the outer surface.

25
Q

The liver has over 700 functions what are some of the most important?

A

1) Detoxification
2) Biotransformation- Changing one food group into another
3) Converts bilirubin into bile

26
Q

Detoxification Example (look at notes)

A

Protein Breakdown — Amino Acids & Ammonia — taken to liver via hepatic vein portal - Ammonia — urea — release as blood urea nitrogen (BUN) — Kidney— Urine

27
Q

A rise of BUN

A

Is a worry of kidney , Kidneys get rid of BUN

28
Q

Test for liver function?

A

Check bilirubin
Levels of Albumin
Clotting time of blood

29
Q

What are the three vessels of the Portal Triad ?

A

1) Hepatic Artioles
2) Hepatic Portal Vein
3) Bile Duct

30
Q

Hepatic Arterioles

A

Go into the liver
- Deliver O2 (oxygenated) blood to the liver

31
Q

Hepatic portal vein

A

Coming into the liver, Carry’s nutrients from intestines to the liver for filtration & detoxification

32
Q

Bile duct

A

Carries bile out of liver & into gall bladder, where it is concentrated. It is then delivered to the duodenum via the bile duct, which joins w/ pancreatic duct

33
Q

Kupffer cell

A

Are macrophages (does the filtration)
Located within the lumen of the liver sinusoids

34
Q

Hepatic Vein

A

Carries blood back to right atrium
Nutrients has been filtered and detoxified

35
Q

Gall Bladder

A

Inferior to liver — Concentrates Bile
Gallstones- Hardened deposits of digestive fluid

36
Q

Pancreas

A

98% of pancreas is made of exocrine cells
- Produce nuggets & digestive enzymes

2% of pancreas are the Islets of Langerhans

37
Q

The relaxing of the walls give rise to a series of pouches called

A

Haustrae

38
Q

Surface of internal colon (large intestine) looks like ?

A

Smooth, wet, pink velvet w/ pits to absorb nutrients

39
Q

Bile is secreted into the____

A

Duodenum via the bile duct

40
Q

What do parietal cells secrete?

A

Hydrochloric Acid (HCL)

41
Q

Brunner Glands

A

Only in duodenum
Release buffers

42
Q

Jejunum & ileum

A

Release digestive enzymes

43
Q

Duodenum

A

Releases cholecystokinin to increase bile release

44
Q

Mucosa

A

Inner most layer
