absorption
|
the process by which nutrient molecules are taken up by the cells for transport into either the blood or lymphatic system
|
|
small intestine absorption (villi)
|
fingerlike protusions into the small intestines
structure = epithelium (absorptive cells with microvilli) goblet cells (secrete mucous) Purpose = increase absorptive area absorb major nutrients |
|

1 digestion 2 absorption |
1 none necessary
2 intestinal cells (easily crosses cell membranes, mouth stomach, small intestine) venous system (easily crosses vessel walls) |

gastrointestinal regulation (nervous system)
|
vagus nerve = receives stimuli to stimulate hormonal system
|
|
GASTROINTESTINAL REGULATION (hormone system)
|
Gastrin = Stimulates stomach acids and enzymes
Secretin =Stimulates pancreatic juice Cholecystokinin (CCK)= Stimulates pancreatic enzymes and gallbladder bile release Gastric-Inhibitory Peptide (GIP) = Slows gastric motility and stimulates pancreatic insulin release. |
