small intestine parts
duodenum, jejunum, ileum, ileocecal sphincter, villi
duodenum
first section of the small intestine
jejunum
second part of the small intestine
ileum
the last and longest portion of the small intestine
Ileocecal sphincter
the ring-like muscle that controls the flow from the ileum of the small intestine into the cecum of the large intestine
villi
very small (cannot see on intestine model), finger-like projections of the intestinal mucosa.
large instestine function
Absorption of water
Formation of feces
Expulsion of feces from the body
small intestine function
Absorbs most nutrients; Main absorption organ of the digestive tract
salivary glands list include WHAT?
parotid, sublingual, and submandibular glands
partoid gland function
produce saliva (spit) to keep your mouth lubricated, and to aid in chewing and digestion.
sublingual gland function
lubricates the oral cavity which allows for swallowing, initiating digestion, buffering pH, and dental hygiene
functions of submandibular gland
produces saliva, which moistens the mouth and aids in chewing, swallowing, digestion, and helps to keep the mouth and teeth clean.
where is bile produced
liver
where is bile stored
gallbladder
mesentery definition
attaches the intestines to the abdominal wall, and also helps storing the fat and allows the blood and lymph vessels, as well as the nerves, to supply the intestines.
ligament definition
connect two or more organs to each other
Mesoduodenum
Anchors duodenum to the dorsal body wall
Mesentery proper
anchors the jejunum and the ileum to the dorsal body wall
Mesocolon
anchors the majority of the colon to the dorsal body wall
Mesorectum
anchors the rectum to the dorsal body wall
falciform ligament
attaches liver to anterior abdominal wall and diaphragm
Ligamentum teres(round ligament):
): thickened, unattached front edge of the falciform.
Median suspensory ligament of the bladder:
extends from the midline of the bladder to the ventral body wall.
Lateral ligament of the bladder
extend from the lateral edges of the bladder to the lateral body walls.
Broad ligament of the uterus
extends from the dorsal body wall to attach lengthwise on the uterine horn's dorsal side.
Round ligament of the uterus
extends from the lateral body wall and attaches perpendicular to the broad ligament about halfway up each uterine horn.
(whole name is needed when identifying)
Gastrosplenic ligament
connects spleen to the stomach (is part of the greater omentum but spleen is not part of the digestive system)
Greater Omentum
sac-like fold of membrane extending from the greater curvature of the stomach and covering the small intestine and colon.
(Lace apron)
Lesser Omentum
Extends from the lesser curavature of the stomach to the liver.

Neutrophils
primary task is to destroy bacteria
