barry patho GI final

Question
Answer

🗑
This substance initiates carbohydrate metabolism in the mouth and stomach   amylase  
🗑
Salivary glands are regulated by homones. true or false   False they are regulated by the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems. beta adrenergic stimulation increases salivationAtropine (anticholinergic)drys the mouth  
🗑

🗑

🗑
digestion   transform nutrients into very small particles-chemical digestion  
🗑

🗑

🗑
true or false all parts of nutrients receive mechanical digestion   True  
🗑
true or false there is digestion that takes place in the esophogus   False  
🗑
mechanical digestion   mastication(mouth),segmentation(sm intest.), churning(stomach)- contraction and movement inside a cavity either by teeth or muscles-not selective  
🗑
Chemical digestion   reducing the size and or complexity of food molecules using digestive enzymes(stomach and sm intestine)  
🗑
2nd digestion of carbs and 1st digestion of proteins (location)   Stomach

🗑
pepsin   digests protein peptide bond  
🗑
3 types of cells in the stomach   mucous, chief, parietal  
🗑
mucous cells   secrete mucous to cover lining of the stomach to protect against own digestive enzymes located close to the opening  
🗑
chief cells(zymogenic)   secret pepsinogen- not active, HCL converts to pepsin  
🗑
parietal cells   produce HCL and intrinsic factor  
🗑
***is required for absoption of vit B12 needed to form erythrocytes   intrinsic factor  
🗑
decreased vit B12 causes   pernicious anemia  
🗑
**** and **** can interfere w/ absorption of vit B12 and cause anemia   gastritus and peptic ulcers  
🗑
The***allows chyme to empty slowly into the small intestine(duodenum), as not to let too much acid into an alkaline env't too quickly   Pyloric valve  
🗑
Layers of the stomach from outside to inside   Serosa(visceral peritoneum and connective tissue layer), muscularis, submucossa, mucosa  
🗑
Muscularis layer of the stomach outer to inner   longitudnal, circular, oblique  
🗑
mucosa layer of the stomach outer to inner   muscularis mucosa, lamina propria, mucous epithelium  
🗑
gastric glands contained in the mucosa   surface mucous cells, mucous neck cells, parietal cells, chief cells, endocrine cells  
🗑
pyloric gland   secretes the hormone gastrin from G cells  
🗑
Enterochromaffin-like cells   secrete histamine  
🗑
D cells   secrete somatostatin  
🗑
gastric pit   A common duct stomach glands empty into  
🗑
microvilli contain 3 vessels what are they   arterial and venous cappillary and lymph (lacteal)  
🗑
Salivary glands   parotid, submandibular, sublingual  
🗑
2 hhepatic ducts from the liver combine to form   the common hepatic duct  
🗑
common hepatic duct combines with cystic duct from gall bladder to form   the common bile duct  
🗑
the common bile duct and the pacreatic duct combine to form   the hepatopancreatic ampula  
🗑
the hepatopancreatic ampulla empties into the   Duodenum at the major duodenal papilla  
🗑
The head of the pancreas is located near*** and the tail is near the ***   the duodenum and the spleen  
🗑
parts of the small intestine   duodenum, jejunum, and ileum  
🗑
The liver produces bile which contains salts necessary for fat absorbtion. It is stored in the   gallbladder  
🗑
The exocrine portion( of the pancreas produces   alkaline fluid that neutralizes chyme, creating a duodenal ph that supports enzymatic action  
🗑
Why is the pancreas known as a dual organ?   It has exocrine(enzymes) and endocrine(insulin) functions  
🗑
enzymes from acini and a network of ducts in the pancreas empty into***which empties into the common bile duct at***   the pancreatic duct (Wirsung)and ampulla of Vater  
🗑
Icterus(jaundice)   yellow or greenish pigmentation caused by hyperbilirubinemia can be cused by an obstruction of the bile ducts or liver cells.  
🗑
bile leaves the liver by way of the   hepatic duct  
🗑
bile leaves and enters the gall bladder by way of the   cystic duct  
🗑
muscles in the wall of the small intestine   circular and longitudnal  
🗑
****allows bile to enter the gall bladder from the liver via cystic duct, prevents reflux of duodenal contents, and controls flow into the duodenum   sphincter of odi  
🗑
function of bile   emulsification of fats  
🗑
THe four lobes of the liver   quadrate, caudate, left, and right(largest)  
🗑
T/F the superior portion of the liver is in contact with the diaphragm and the gall bladder is located in the inferior region btwn the Right lobe and the quadrate lobe   True  
🗑
