Where are most of the macromolecules converted to the monos
|
At the brush border enzymes
|
|
What is produced during the blastophore and gastrulation concerning the digestive system
|
The blastopore is the anus
The gastrulation is the GI Tract |
|
What are the layers of the GI Tract, start from the inner most layer
|
Mucosa-protection, digest and absorb our food, screte goblet cells
Submucosa--enteric nervous, blood and lymph, where things of digestion are picked up Smooth muscle- inner (circular) -mixing of food outer (longitudinal)-perstalis Serosa-connective tissue |
|
What kind of muscle is the GI Tract
|
The GI tract is smooth
|
|
What assist in making the GI tract move
|
The hormones
The enteric nervous system Sponatneous depolarization Parasympathetic |
|
What is the difference between exocrine and endocrine
|
The endocrine will exit into bloodstream and the exocrine will exit via ducts
|
|
What enzymes would you find in the mouth (think of what you break up)
|
You would find amylase, lipase and lysozyme. There is no breakup of proteins in the mouth
|
|
Where do you start the breakdown of proteins
|
In the stomach
|
|
Go over the features of the stomach. What they do and there name
Rugae- Pyloric Spinchter 3rd Muscle layer |
The 3rd muscle layer is for mixing
Rugae for foling Pyloric spinchter-Release food to small intestine (controlled by strecthing of small intestine, via horomones (Cholecystokinin) and the nerves connectining stomach to duondenum |
|
What are the main enzymes in the stomach and where are they relased and their functions
|
HCl, released by the perital cells. They convery pepsinogen to pepsin because HCl makes an acidic environment
Pepsin which is excreted by Chief Cells Gastrin which are released in the G cells and cause acidity and pepsin secretion (stimulate perital cells) |
|
What is the primary role of villi in the Duodenum
|
This will increase surface area and increase absorbtion
|
|
What are two things emptied into duodenum
|
Bile (made up of cholestorol in liver and stored in gallbladder)
Digestive enzymes and bicarbonate from the pancreatic duct |
|
What are two main enzymes in the small intestine
|
The enterokinase-trypsinogen to trypsin
Brush border enzymes |
|
What are the three main hormones in duodenam
|
CCK-stimulate pancreas to relase enzymes, decrease gastric motility, stimulate bile release
Secretin- make pancreas release bicarb in water, keep the duodenal neutral Enterogastrone-decrease emptying of stomach |
|
What are the roles of jejum and ileum
|
Special reabsorption of vitamins
|
|
What are three ways to increase blood sugar
|
• Glucagon-peptide
• Epi-amino acid derivative • Cortisol- steroid |
|
Do brush border enzymes break down fats
|
No
|
|
What is the main role of small intestine
|
Digestion and absorbtion
|
|
What is the main role of the large intestine
|
Absorb water
|
|
What causes the pancreas to secrete enzymes?
|
CCK-Hormone
|
|
Can the liver and skeletal muscles store glucose?
|
Yes
|
|
What is the main role of the liver?
|
To help in the absorbiton of nutrients, i.e help in because of the hepatic portal system-
|
