what are the accessory organs
Salivary glands, pancreas, liver and gallbladder
alimentary canal
mouth, pharynx, esophagus, small intestine, large intestine , rectum and anus
what is the sequence of layers of the alimentary canal wall (innermost to outermost)
mucosa, submucosa, muscularis, serosa
which layer transports food molecules to blood, nourishes cells, contains glands
submucosa
what are the 2 types of movement in the alimentary wall canal tube
mixing and propelling
Mixing movement
small sections contract rthymically, does NOT move material in 1 direction , ex: segmentation
Propelling
moves material in 1 direction , peristalsis: propels food down the tract, ring of contraction
How does the parasympathetic intervene and control digestive activity?
increases activity (secretion & motility)
How does the sympathetic intervene and control digestive activity?
decreases activity
submucosal plexus controls….
secretions
myenteric controls….
gastrointestinal motility
carbohydrates →
Monosaccharides
Proteins →
amino acids
lipids →
fatty acids and glycerol
nucleic acids →
nucleotide
what does salvia contain?
salivary amylase (enzyme) and bicarbonate ions (buffer)
what enzyme begins chemical digestion of starches and glycogen
salivary amylase
3 stages of swallowing stages:
first stage (voluntary) bolus is formed (saliva mixed w/ food), sec stage (involuntary) sensory receptors are triggered and swallowing reflex (oropharynx region), third stage (involuntary) peristalsis transports food from esophagus to stomach
what is rugae…
folds of mucosa and submucosa
gastric glands contain what 3 secretory cells?
mucous , parietal, chief
what is gastric juice a mixture of ?
the 3 gastric cells
what does mucous cells do?
it produces mucous and lines the stomach while also being a lubricate
what does parietal cells do?
secrete HCI and it aids in activation of protein enzyme (such as pepsinogen to pepsin)
what does chief cells do?
secrete pepsinogen (inactive) and it aids in protein digestion
why is pepsinogen released inactive?
to prevent chief cells being destroyed and starting early digestion in the stomach lining itself
what activates pepsinogen ?
HCI
somatostatin purpose
prevents/brakes HCI secretion
Cholecystokinin (cck) purpose
decreases gastric motility
when is cck released?
proteins and fat enter small intestine, thus released by small intestine cell
Sympathetic ….. gastric activity
decreases
parasympathetic ….. gastric activity
increases
what does the large intestine lack ?
villi and plicae circulares
what does the urinary system consists of ?
kidneys, ureters , urinary bladder and urethra
what is the ureters purpose?
Transportation bringing urine from kidneys to bladder
what is the kidneys purpose?
filters blood and urine production
what is the urinary bladders purpose?
collects and store urine
what is the urethra’s purpose?
conveys urine from bladder to the outside of body
the urinary system removes…
waste (urea and creatinine) , substances ( sodium and water ) and drugs
the kidneys secrete what?
renin
what does the kidneys activate
Vitamin D
what does renin regulate?
Blood pressure
nephrons produce?
urine
afferent arteriole →glomerulus → efferent arteriole → peritubular capillaries
blood flow in nephrons
what specialized cells surround the glomerulus?
podocytes
