24 Digestive System
Chpt 24
Question | Answer |
---|---|
function of esophagus | secrets ucus and transports food |
does the esophagus digest | no |
esphogeal hiatus | end of esphogus where it connects to stomach |
esophogeal mucosa | nonkeratinized stratified squamos, epithelium, lamina propria, muscularis muscosae |
type of tissue is lamina propria | aerolar connective tissue |
type of tissue is muscularis muscosae | smooth muscle |
esophogeal submusosa | aerolar connective tissue, blood vessels, mucous glands |
esopheal muscularis | 1st 3rd is skeletal muscle, then skeletal and smooth muscle, then smooth muscle |
LES or lower esophageal sphincter | regulates movement of food from esophagus to stomach |
GERD | LES fails to close properly, HCL burns esophageal walls which is called heartburn, avoid foods that increase stomach acid |
pyloric sphincter | seperates stomach and duodenum, prevents chyme from returning to stoach |
pylorospasm | sphincter is too tight food does pass through pyloric sphincter, stomach overfills causing vomit |
pyloricstenosis | narrowing of sphincter that causes projectile vomit |
parts of the sm intestines | pyloric sphincter, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, ileocecal sphincter |
parts of the lg intestines | ileocecal sphincter, cecum, colon which consists of ascending colon, transverse colon, descending colon and sigmoid colon, rectum, anal canal |
why is the stomach larger than gi tract | fundus stores food and the stomach needs room to churn food, GI tract is mainly responsible for transporting food |
salivary amaylase | breaks down starch in mouth |
sequence of GI | mouth, teeth,tongue, parotid, submadibular and sublingual salivary glands, pharynx, UES, esophagus, LES, stomach, pyloric sphincter, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, ileocecal sphincter, cecum, ascending, transverse, descending, sigmoid, rectum, anal canal, anus |
what is attached to the cecum | appendix |
4 common layers of GI | mucosa, submucosa, muscularis, serosa |
most inner layer of GI | mucosa |
stomach epithelium | mucosa, submucosa, muscularis, serosa |
colon epithelium | mucosa prevents microbes and pathogens, submocosa, muscularis, taniae coli |
areaolar connective tissues | contains several cells and connects to skin |
nonkeratinized stratified squamous | no keratin, moist, 1st line of defense from microbes |
lamina propria | supports epithelium and holds blood vessels in place |
digestive enzymes of saliva | salivary amylase and lingual lipase |
gastric juice | pepsin, gastric lipase |
pancreatic juice | pancreatic amylase, trypsin, chymotrypsin, elastase, carboxypeptidase, pancreatic lipase, nucleases are ribonuclease and deoxyribonuclease |
brush border | xdextrinase, maltase, sucrase, lactase, enterokinase, peptidases, amionpeptidase, dipeptidase, nucleosidase and phosphates |
