Digestive
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| This best describes the major duodenal papilla | the opening of the hepatopancreatic ampulla in the duodenum |
| These bands of longitudinal smooth muscle run the length of the colon | Teniae coli |
| This is the largest pair of salivary glands, which produce mostly watery saliva: | Parotid gland |
| the arrangement that lists the structures in the order that food encounters them as it passes between the small intestine and the rectum. | ascending colon transverse colon descending colon sigmoid colon |
| This best describes the major duodenal papilla | the opening of the hepatopancreatic ampulla in the duodenum |
| This layer of the digestive tract is in direct contact with the food that is consumed | mucosa |
| This thick connective tissue layer of the digestive tract contains blood vessels, small glands, and a nerve plexus: | submucosa layer |
| This kind of epithelium lines the mouth, oropharynx, esophagus and anal canal: | stratified squamous |
| These lymphatic capillaries are found in the villi of the small intestine: | lacteals |
| This region of the large intestine has simple columnar epithelium in its tunica mucosa, smooth muscle in its tunica muscularis, and epiploic appendages attached to its outer surface: | colon |
| These muscular contractions move material through the digestive tract: | peristalsis |
| These muscles are all involved in mastication except | orbicularis oris |
| This best describes the function of bile | contains breakdown products from hemoglobin emulsifies fats |
| Four statements that best describes defecation | 1. can be initiated by stretch of the rectum 2. can occur as a result of mass movements 3. involves local reflexes 4. involves parasympathetic reflexes mediated by the spinal cord |
| This part of the brain is activated during deglutition (swallowing) | the swallowing center in the medulla oblongata is activated |
| This secretion lubricates the food so it moves easily through the digestive tract and also protects the epithelium: | mucus |
| Saliva contains the digestive enzyme ________________, which breaks down starch into ________________. | amylase, maltose |
| These cells in the gastric glands produce pepsinogen: | chief or zymogenic cells |
| This is one of the major functions of bile salts: | emulsify fat to fatty droplets |
| This is the major part of the aqueous component of pancreatic juice: | bicarbonate ions |
| This major transport lipoprotein is composed of 92% lipid and 8% protein: | VLDL (very low-density lipoprotein) |
| Once chylomicrons leave the simple columnar epithelium of the small intestine, they diffuse into this | lacteals |
| enzymes that digest protein | carboxypeptidase chymotrypsin pepsin trypsin |
| enzyme that does not digest protein | lipase |
| This best describes micelles | lipids surrounded by bile salts |
| After eating or drinking dairy products like cheese and milk, you have intestinal cramps, bloating and diarrhea. You most likely have this: | lactose intolerance |
| These symptoms would appear in a person with a blocked common bile duct: | jaundice clay colored stools abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting lack of normal clotting function |
