associated organs w/ digestive system |
teeth, tongue, salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, pancrease |
|
mixing and propulsion |
ensuring that chemicals and food are mixed to promote breakdown, and moving things around |
|
the gi tract always has a |
lumen (open space in center) |
|
four layers seen throughout the gi tract from lumen to serous memb |
1mucosa 2submucosa 3muscularis 4serosa |
|
submucosa |
areolar connective tissue |
|
muscularis |
also called muscularis externa to distinguish it from the thinner weaker muscle layer of the mucosa above |
|
serosa in abdomen |
serosa forms part of the peritoneal cavity |
|
mucosa is the layer that |
lines the lumen |
|
three sublayers of mucosa |
epithelium, lamina propria, muscularis mucosae |
|
epithelium |
stratified squamous in the mouth and simple columnar in the stomach and intestines |
|
a layer of areolar connective tissue with blood and lymphatic vessels to pick up material absorbed by the epithelium |
lamina propria |
|
a thin muscle layer that makes the inside of the GI tract all crinkly and folded |
muscularis mucosae |
|
what comprises areolar connective tissue. in it, we find blood and lymphatic vessels and the submucosal plexus of the enteric nervous system. |
submucosa |
|
striated (voluntary) muscle in the mouth and pharynx controls swallowing. Smooth muscle, usually in two layers, lines the rest of the GI tract and keeps materials moving through peristalisis |
muscularis |
|
the what is made up of areolar connective tissue covered by a simple squamous epithelium. |
serosa |
|
in the abdominal cavity, serosa is alled the |
visceral peritoneum becuase it forms guts side of peritoneal cavity |
|
buccal |
towards cheek |
|
lingual |
towards toungue |
|
occlusal |
for teeth, towards the surface where they meet other teeth |
|
mesial |
toward midline |
|
distal |
farther away from the midline |
|
incisors |
sharp cutting theeth |
|
cuspids |
canine teeth |
|
bicuspids |
premolars |
|
molars |
grindstone |
|
maxilla |
upper jaw |
|
mandible |
lower jaw |
|
numbering teeth |
starts from patients right distal maxillary molar |
|
children have how many teeth |
20 that fall out |
|
the part of the tooth above the gumline and visible is the |
crown |
|
the part just below the gumline |
neck |
|
the part of the tooth that attaches the tooth to the periodontal ligaments and then to the jawbone |
root |
|
the outher part of the tooth forming the occlusal surface and all four sides of the tooth |
enamel |
|
enamel made up of |
minerals calcium phosphate and calcium carbonate. |
|
enamel is harder than bone because |
it is almost all mineral with little organic matrix |
|
deep in the enamel is |
dentin |
|
what forms the bulk of the tooth |
dentin |
|
dentin contains |
dentinal tubules which allow fluid to move |
|
when dentin is exposed |
fluid can move (as if dentinal tubules are tiny drinking straws) and the nerves of the root send strong pain signal to brain |
|
the dentin of the root is covered by |
cementum |
|
cementum is connected to bone by a series of |
periodontal ligaments, a dense fibrous connective tissue |
|
what has proprioception and are resistant to anesthesia, which is why we can feel pressure during dental work |
periodontal ligaments |
|
the pain fibers and blood vessels of teeht are enxlosed in |
pulp cavity |
|
pulp cavity |
chamber formed by dentin with one to three outlets |
|
pain signals carried by apical foramina are carried on the |
trigeminal nerve |
|
tongue is made up of |
skeletal muscle covered by an epithelium |
|
filiform papillae |
look like threads cover mos of thongue surface. nontaste structure that gives rough texture |
|
what are clustered in taste buds |
gustatory receptor |
|
taste buds are found |
on the toungue in htree groupings |
|
three taste buds found on the tongue |
fungiform papillae, foliate papillae, vallate papillae |
|
foliate papillae are found on what part of the tongue |
laeral surface of the posterior tongue |
|
vallate papillae form a |
v shape row along the posterior tongue |
|
lingual glands |
secrete mucus plus an enzyme, lingual lipase, wich helps break down fatty foods in the mouth |
|
three main salivary glands |
parotid, sublingual, submandibular |
|
the largest glad, inferior and anterior to the ears |
parotid glands/ducts |
|
beneath the tongue |
sublingual gland/ducts |
|
floor of the mouth medial and inferior to the mandible |
submandibular glands/ducts |
|
mucous acini |
make mucus |
|
serous acini |
make water and enzymes |
|
two kinds of acini found in salivary glands |
mucous/serous acini |
|
enzymes in saliva |
lysozoyme, immunoglobulin a (IgA), salivary amylase |
|
enzymes that break down invading microbes |
lysozomes |
|
three main salivary glands differ slightly in their secretion |
water: parotid gland water/mucus-y: submandibular gland mucusy: sublingual gland |
|
the what connects the paranasal sinuses to the pharynx |
nasopharynx |
|
the what is where the epiglottis covers the trachea when swallowing food or drink, and covers the esophagus when breathing |
laryngopharynx |
|
a muscular tube located in the meduastinum of the thorax |
esophagus |
|
what is basic unit that make salive |
acini |
