Digestive Environment: Mouth
|
Optimum pH: 7
|
|
|
|
Digestive Environment: Stomach
|
Optimum pH: 1-2
|
|
|
|
Digestive Environment: Small Intestine
|
Optimum pH: 7-8
|
|
|
|
Digestive hormone: Gastrin
Produced By: Stomach cells |
Target: Parietal and Chief cells of the stomach
|
Action: Causes parietal cells to release HCl and causes the chief cells to release pepsinogen. The combination of HCl and pepsinogen produces pepsin.
|
|
|
Digestive hormone: Secretin
Produced By: Small intestine |
Target: Pancrease
|
Action: Causes the release of buffers into the small intestine
|
|
|
Digestive hormone: Secretin
Produced By: Small intestine |
Target: Liver
|
Action: Causes the production of bile.
|
|
|
Digestive hormone: Cholecytokinin (CCK)
Produced By: Small intestine |
Target: Pancreas
|
Action: Causes the release of digestive enzymes into the small intestine.
|
|
|
Digestive hormone: Cholecytokinin (CCK)
Produced By: Small intestine |
Target: Hepatopancreatic sphincter
|
Action: Causes the sphincter to open so enzymes and bile can enter the small intestine from the pancreas and gallbladder respectively.
|
|
|
Digestive hormone: Cholecytokinin (CCK)
Produced By: Small intestine |
Target: Gallbladder
|
Action: Causes the release of bile from the gallbladder into the small intestine.
|
|
|
Digestive hormone: Glucose insulinotropic peptide (GIP)
Produced By: Small intestine |
Target: Pancreas
|
Action: Causes the release of insulin. Insulin will target the cells in order for glucose to pass through the cell membrane.
|
|
|
Digestive hormone: Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP)
Produced By: Small intestine villi |
Target: Capillaries inside the small intestine villi
|
Action: Causes dilation of the capillaries in an effort to increase the amount of absorption of nutrients into the bloodstream.
|
|
|
Four buffers systems in the body
|
Carbonic acid/bicarbonate, Phosphate, Ammonia, Hemoglobin
