Mucosa in the stomach and intestine is made up of:
simple columnar
Layer rich in blood and lymph vessles:
Sub mucosa
Smooth muscle layer where peristalsis beings:
Muscularis
Layer that covers the GI tract and keeps the surfaces wet and slippery
Serosa
sphincter muscle where esophagus meets stomach:
Gastroesophogeal sphincter muscle
Primary function of stomach:
Mix food with gastric juice to produce chyme
Powerful parastolcic contractions of the stomach that mix the food with gastic juice:
Mixing waves
sphincter muscle at the end of the stomach:
Pyloric sphincter muscle
Pyloric sphincter opens when:
Chyme forms
4 Gastric Glands include:
Mucus
Parietal
Chief Cells
Enterendocrine Cells
Cells that lubricate the stomach and protects the stomach from the acidic gastric juice
Mucus
Cells that secrete Hydrochloric acid and intrinsic:
Parietal
this acid sterilizes food:
Hydrochloric acid
Cells that secrete an inactive enzyme (pepsinogen)
Chief Cells
pepsinogen is secreted by:
cheif cells
Pepsinogen is converted to pepsin when it comes in contact with:
Hydrochloric Acid

large folds of the mucosa
villus
Microscopic projection of plasma membranes of simple columnar that line lumen do not wave
Microvilli
Carb digestion occurs in:
Small intestine
Enzyme in small intestine that breaks down glycogen and starch to maltose

Splits lactose to glucose and galactose:
Lactase
Lactose intollerant: lactose remains where:
Intestine
Intestinal enzyme that breaks down protein
Intestinal Protease

Enterokinase
major site of lipid digestion:
Small Intestine
Enzyme that breaks down lipids:
Pancreatic Lipase
Lipids are broken down to:
2 fatty acids and monoglyceride
The smooth ER of epitheal cells that line the intestine contain enzymes that recombine the FA +monoglyceride to triglycerids
Chyomicrons
