gastroenteric reflex serves what function

accelerates grandular secretion and peristaltic activity

the gastroileal reflex responds to what

a response to circulating levels of gastrin

the entry of food in the stomach triggers the release of what

gastrin

what relaxes the ileocecal valve at the entrance of the large intestine

gastrin

how long does it take for food to pass from the duodenum to the end of the ileum

5 hours

functions of intestinal juice

moistens intestinal contents


buffers acids


keeps digestive enzymes and products of digestion in solution


what is important in regulating the secretions of the digestive tract

hormonal and cns controls

what protects the duodenal epithelium from gastric acids and enzymes

duodenal glands

when do the duodenal glands start secreting

cephalic phase due to parasympathetic stimulation

what is released when the PH in the duodenum falls due to acidic chyme

secetin

what do pancreatic islets secrete

insulin and glucagom

numerous ducts that branch throughout the pancreas and are sac like pouches are called

channels of bile canniculi

bile in the common hepatic duct may flow where

common bile duct or cystic duct

three liver functions

metabolic regulation


hematological regulation


bile production

the fat soluble vitamins are

DEAK

where is bile from the liver excreted

into the lumen of the duodenum

required for normal digestion and absorbtion of fats

bile salts

passegeway that enters the duodenum for bile secretion

bile papillae

what surrounds the common bile duct and pancreatic duct

hepatopancreatic sphincter

what hormone triggers bile secretion from the gall bladder

cholecystokinin

what may happen if bile salts become to concentrated

may precipitate forming gall stones

functions of the large instestine include

reabsorbtion of water and compactin of feces

3 parts of large intestine

cecum, colon, rectum

what guards the connection between the cecum and ileum

illeocecal valve

pouches along the cecum are called

provides substrates for neurotransmitter release

what are the accesory organs

salivary glands


gallbladder


liver


pancreas

digestive functions

ingestion


mechanical processing


digestion


secretion


absorbtion


excretion


the lamina propria is within what part of the digestive tract

the mucosa

a layer of loose connective tissue in the digestive tract

adventitia

suspend portions of the digestive tract

mesentarys

the muscularis externa moves materials through the digestive tract by means of

peristalsis

movements in areas of the small intestine that churn digestive materials is called

segmentation

what lines the buccal cavity

oral mucosa

salivation is controlled by

the ANS

what covers the root

cementum

four regions of the stomach

cardia


fundus


body


pylorus

in a relaxed state, the stomach contains numerous ridges and folds called

rugae

chief cells secrete

pepsinogen

the intesitinal mucosa bears transverse folds called

plicae

each villus contains a lymphatic vessel called

lacteal

exocrine gland ducts branch repeatedly before ending in the

pancreatic acini

the bile ducts from each lobule unite to form

the common hepatic duct

functions of the liver

metabolic regulation


hematological regulation


production of bile

cholecystokinin permits relaxtion of what that in turn allows bile to enter the duodenum

hepatopancreatic sphincter

fatty acids and other lipids react with bile salts to form

micelles
