Digestion System

Front 1

GI tract

Back 1

Mouth pharynx esophagus stomach small intestine

Front 2

Accessory organs

Back 2

Salivary glands liver pancreas gallbladder

Front 3

Ingestion

Back 3

Taking food into the mouth

Front 4

Secretion

Back 4

Releasing water acid buffers and enzymes into the Lumen of the GI tract

Front 5

Digestion

Back 5

Breaking down food

Front 6

Absorption

Back 6

Passing digested products from the GI tract into the blood and lymph

Front 7

peritoneum

Back 7

The membrane that covers the abdominal organs and lines abdominal cavity

Front 8

Greater omentum

Back 8

Drapes over the intestine like a fatty

Front 9

mesentry

Back 9

part of the peritoneum that binds the small intestine to the abdominal wall

Front 10

Submucosa

Back 10

Connective tissue that binds mucosa to muclaris

Front 11

Mucosa

Back 11

Interlining or digestive tract

Front 12

Muscularis

Back 12

Thick layers of muscle mostly smooth muscle and parts skeletal in esophagus and anal sphincter muscles

Front 13

Serosa

Back 13

Outermost layer which consists connective tissue

Front 14

Enteric nervous system

Back 14

Control the secretions of the organs of the GI tract

Front 15

Salivary amylase

Back 15

Begins digestion of starch

Front 16

Mucus

Back 16

Lubricates food

Front 17

Bolus

Back 17

Tongue moves food too contact the teeth and helped shape food

Front 18

Deglutition voluntary stage

Back 18

Tongue shapes food

Front 19

Deglutition pharyngeal stage

Back 19

Tongue Rises against the palate and closes the nasopharynx

Front 20

Deglutition esophageal stage

Back 20

Pushes the bolus dow

Front 21

Gastric juices

Back 21

Composed of mucus hydrochloric acid and digestive enzymes

Front 22

chyme

Back 22

peristaltic contractions from the Fundus to the pylorus of the stomach mix gastric juices

Front 23

Pepsin

Back 23

Hydrochloric acid secreted into the chyme kills bacteria and activates

Front 24

Gastric lipase

Back 24

Quantity of lipids

Front 25

Gastric emptying

Back 25

Stomach empties its contents into the small intestine

Front 26

Villi

Back 26

Projections of the intestinal mucosa cells containing connective tissue blood vessels and lymphatic vessels that function in the absorption of the products of digestion

Front 27

Small intestine

Back 27

jujenum

illum

duodenumjujenumillumWater soluble substances absorbed through the epithelial lining go into blood vessel fat soluble substances proceed into lymph vessels called lacteals and eventually make their way to the blood circulation

Front 28

Bile salts

Back 28

Break down large lipids emulsification

Front 29

Gallbladder

Back 29

Stores bile and releases it into the duodenum of the small intestine through the common bile duct when stimulated by cck

Front 30

Pancreatic amylase

Back 30

Breaks down starches

Front 31

tryipsin chymotropin

Back 31

Bridgestone proteins into amino acids

Front 32

Pancreatic lipase

Back 32

Breaks down triglycerides into fatty acids

Front 33

Small intestine

Back 33

Cells on the Villi of the small intestine absorb various molecules facilitated diffusion as well as active diffusion and the nature of the absorb substance passes are there into the blood in hepatic portal circulation or into the lacteal and lymphatic system

Front 34

Gastrin

Back 34

Stimulates secretion of gastric juice increases mortality of GI tract and relaxes pylanc sphincter

Front 35

Intestinal mucosa

Back 35

Stimulates secretion of pancreatic juice rich in bicarbonate ions
