Stomach cancer

compound (HCl) dissociates, it react and form neutralized components such as water and a salt. This is an ideal mechanism of action for individuals who suffer from acid reflux or heartburn conditions because the excessive HCl that is found in the stomach can be alleviated by ingesting antacid tablets. This experiment explored the effectiveness of different antacids base on the number of HCl moles neutralized by the antacid. The data favor Alkalac as the most effective antacids base on moles…

has two layers. Its interior is lined with cells that are packed very closely together creating a smooth surface. The circular muscle around the outside of the oesophagus is also smooth. Your swallow forces the food toward the stomach. Step 3. Once it reaches your stomach the cheeseburger is broken down even more, the amylase that went to work on the food in your mouth is taken down by acid. Hydrochloric acid is the main component…

Embedded in the pancreas are the islets of Langerhans, which secrete into the blood the insulin and glucagon • Enzymes, or digestive juices, are secreted by the pancreas into the small intestine. There, it continues breaking down food that has left stomach. The pancreas also produces the hormone insulin and secretes it into the bloodstream, where it regulates the body’s glucose or sugar level Mouth: • the mouth is the first portion of the alimentary canal that receives food and produces saliva.…

In these camps “the death rates were so high, from malnutrition, typhus and exhaustion that the disposal of corpses became a serious problem.” (THE CAMPS) The treatment in transporting and caring for the victims is probably one of the main factors in the dehumanization of people during Holocaust. The victims were treated inferior simply because of their nationality. The Nazi’s made it a point to degrade these people in every way possible by taking away their rights and free will.…

organs of the digestive system, specifically the stomach, liver, duodenum and ileum, explain in detail the process that happens there. To give a more in-depth look at absorption it will explain the function of lacteals and capillaries…

Stomach When the chewed food has passed from the mouth the esophagus, it reaches the stomach where enzymes peruse the process of breaking down the food into usable substances and forms. The braking down is achieved through stomach acid which is released from the cell lining of the stomach, along with powerful enzymes which help to further break down the food. 4. Small Intestine The contents from the stomach reach the small intestine once they have been…

Box jellyfish Nomenclature "Box jellyfish" and "sea wasp" are common names for the highly venomous Chironex fleckeri. However, these terms are ambiguous, as "sea wasp" and "marine stinger" are sometimes used to refer to other jellyfish. Anatomy "Cubomedusae", from Ernst Haeckel's Kunstformen der Natur, 1904 The medusa form of a box jellyfish has a squarish, box-like bell. From each of the four lower corners of this hangs a short pedalium or stalk which bears one or more long, slender, hollow…

Teeth are essential to the human body. They are the parts of our body that help us to chew. It gives people the sense of taste and, partially the sense of smell. Teeth are small, tough, whitish compositions made of calcium found in the mouth. Their main purpose is to break down food by chewing it and destroying it so the food can be ready for digestion. We clean our teeth so we do not get them infected or dirty from something. Sometimes, however we can get diseases from the teeth. We can protect…

First step is ingested food is taken into the mouth where it is torn into smaller physical parts by the teeth. The salivary enzymes; amylase and lipase are activated beginning the chemical breakdown of food. Salivary amylase divides starch into smaller glucose molecules. Physically the saliva hydrates and compacts the food for ideal propulsion through the pharynx and esophagus. Propulsion is activated voluntarily when we swallow; the tongue moves towards the hard palate of the mouth thus pushing…

supply, and the renewal of the damaged epithelial cells. The H-pylori’s ability to induce inflammation, stimulates the release of cytokines and other mediators of inflammation to contribute to the mucosal damage. The infection in the antrum of the stomach will lead to hypergastrinemia and an increased acid production. The increase in the acid in the duodenum will impair duodenal bicarbonate production, thus reducing the luminal pH in the duodenum. This promotes the development of gastric…
