Falciform ligament
Attaches the liver to the anterior body wall.

Remnant of the ventral mesentery of the fetus.
Peritoneum
Serous membrane that forms the lining of the abdominal cavity.
Perineum
Region of the body inferior to the pelvic diaphragm and between the legs.

Includes the anus and vagina in females.
Greater omentum
Large fold of peritoneum that hangs down from the stomach.
Functions fo the greater omentum?
1. fat deposition
2. immune contribution
3. limits spreading of infection

NOTE: it's a remnant of the dorsal mesentery.
Epiploic foramen
Passage of communication between the greater sac and lesser sac.

This is how the greater and lesser sacs are connected.
Lesser omentum
Double layer of periotenum

Extends from liver to lesser curvature of stomach and start of duodenum.

NOTE: greater omentum: extends from GREATER curvature of stomach.
Lesser omentum is composed of what two ligaments?
1. gastrohepatic ligament
2. hepatoduodenal ligament
Cardia of stomach
Attached to esophagus
Epithelium of the stomach?
Columnar
Gastric glands are composed of what cells?
1. mucous neck cells
2. parietal cells
3. chief cells
4. gastrin cell
What do parietal cells secrete or produce?
1. HCL (via response to histamine, acetylcholine, and gastrin)
2. intrinsic factor
Intrinsic factor
Vit B absorber
What do chief cells secrete?
Pepsinogen
Layers of the stomach
1. mucosa
2. submucosa (contains submucosal plexus)
3. muscularis externa (contains myenteric plexus)
4. serosa


NOTE: serosa is the most OUTER layer.
What are some char of the mucosa layer of the stomach?
1. gastric pit
2. gastric gland
What cells are present in the gastric gland?
1. mucous neck cells
2. parietal cells
3. chief cells
4. enteroendocrine cells
What are kupffer cells?
Reticuloendothelial cells of the liver.

Phagocytes
Functions of the hepatocyte cuboid cells:
1. metabolism (fat, carbo, proteins, detoxification, activate Vit D)
2. secrete bile 1qtr/day
Structures of the pancreas:
1. common bile duct
2. neck
3. pancreatic ducts
4. tail
5. body
6. uncinate (hook) process
7. head
How much pancreatic juice is produced per day?
1.5 qtr
What's inside pancreatic juice?
1. amylase (carbo)
2. trypsin (protein)
3. lipase (fats)
4. ribo & deoxyribonuclease (nucleic acid)
Cells of the Islet of Langerhans?
1. alpha (glucagon)
2. beta (insulin)
3. delta cells
4. F cells
What is the function of the delta cells?
Secretes somatostatin that inhibits beta and alpha cell secretions.
What is the function of F cells?
Regulates release of protein enzymes.
Epiploic appendices
Are appended to transverse and sigmoid parts of colon.
Haustra
Small pouches of colon caused by sacculation which give the colon its segmented appearance.
Tenia coli
Longitudinal ribbons of smooth muscle on the outside of the ascending, transverse, and sigmoid colon.

Contracts length-wise to produce the bulges (haustra).
What epithelial tissue is characteristic of the stomach, SI, and LI?
Simple columnar
