New cards

canine

one cuspid

18
New cards

premolar

bicuspid

19
New cards

molar

four cuspid

20
New cards

dentition pattern for deciduous teeth

2 incisors, 1 canine, 2 molars (=20)

21
New cards

dentition pattern for permanent teeth

2 incisors, 1 canine, 2 premolars, 3 molars (=32)

22
New cards

salivary glands

produce saliva

23
New cards

major pairs secrete into oral cavity

  • parotid glands

  • sublingual glands

  • submandibular gland

24
New cards

exocrine glands produce?

saliva

25
New cards

submandibular gland % in exocrine gland saliva

70%

26
New cards

parotid gland % in exocrine gland saliva

25%

27
New cards

sublingual gland % in exocrine gland saliva

5%

28
New cards

salivary amylase

29
New cards

esophagus layers?

  • mucosa

  • submucosa

  • muscularis

30
New cards

esophagus: mucosa lining tissue?

nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium

31
New cards

esophagus: muscularis lining tissue?

smooth muscle in two layers: inner circular and outer longitudinal

32
New cards

deglutition

  • swallowing

  • food passes through parts of pharynx on it way to esophagus to stomach

  • divided into 3 phases

33
New cards

deglutition: oral phase control?

voluntary control

34
New cards

deglutition: pharyngeal phase control?

involuntary control

35
New cards

deglutition: esophageal phase control?

involuntary control

36
New cards

deglutition: oral phase actions?

  • tongue up against soft plate → block the exit of the oral cavity → forcing bolus into oropharynx

37
New cards

deglutition: pharyngeal phase actions?

  • uvula and soft plate upward and backward → block passage to nasopharynx

  • larynx up and epiglottis down → closing air way → forcing bolus to esophagus

38
New cards

deglutition: esophageal phase actions?

  • perstalsis push the bolus toward stomach

39
New cards

4 regions of the stomach

  • cardia (connects to esophagus)

  • fundus

  • body

  • pylorus - pyloric sphincter (connects to the duodenum)

40
New cards

stomach folds

rugae

41
New cards

where does the pyloric sphincter connect?

stomach → duodenum of small intestine

42
New cards

location of gastric gland?

gastric pits in mucosa layer

43
New cards

gastric gland tissue?

simple columnar epithelium

44
New cards

4 types of cells in the gastric gland?

  • mucous cells

  • parietal cells

  • chief cells

  • g cells

45
New cards

gastric gland: mucous cell secretory product

alkaline mucus

46
New cards

gastric gland: parietal cells secretory product

HCl acid and intrinsic factors

47
New cards

gastric gland: chief cell secretory product

pepsinogen (inactive proenzyme) → pepsin (active enzyme) by HCl in gastric lumen

48
New cards

gastric gland: g cell secretory product

gastrin (hormone)

49
New cards

gastric gland: mucuos cell function

form alkaline mucous barrier to protect stomach surface

50
New cards

gastric gland: parietal cell function

HCl:

  • kill bacteria

  • denature proteins for digestion

  • activate pepsinogen

IF:

  • cofactor for vitamin B12 absorption

51
New cards

gastric gland: chief cell function

  • pepsin → protein (pH= 2.0 as optimal pH) → peptides

  • enzymatic breakdown of proteins in stomach

52
New cards

gastric gland: g cell functions

  • stimulate secretion of gastric juice

  • stimulate gastric motility

53
New cards

controlling mechanism of gastric secretion 3 phases

  • cephalic phase

  • gastric phase

  • intestinal phase

54
New cards

cephalic phase

  • stimulation of sensory receptors on head (e.g. sight, hearing, smell, taste)

  • anticipating/stimulating effect on gastric secretion

55
New cards

gastric phase

  • stimulation on stomach

  • continuously stimulating effect on gastric secretion

56
New cards

intestinal phase

  • stimulation on small intestine

  • negative feedback from small intestine

  • inhibiting effect on gastric secretion

57
New cards

gastric secretion controlling mechanisms include?

  • parasympathetic nerve (vagus nerve)

  • sympathetic nerve

58
New cards

gastric secretion: parasympathetic nerve (vagus nerve)

stimulating effect (via neurotransmitter Acetyl Choline (ACh) on gastric secretions

59
New cards

gastric secretion: sympathetic nerve

inhibiting effect (via adrenergic neurotransmitter Norephinephrine) on gastric secretion

60
New cards

hormones of digestive tract

  • gastrin

  • secretin

  • cholecystokinin

61
New cards

gastric

  • by g cells of stomach

  • stimulating effect on gastric secretion

62
New cards

secretin

  • s cell of small intestine

  • inhibiting effect on gastric secretion

63
