Study Notes
Digestion Quiz 2 - Study Notes
- Accessory Organs (Digestion, except): Mouth, tongue, teeth.
- Mechanical Digestion (Main Organ): Stomach
- Carbohydrate Digestion Enzyme (Mouth): Salivary amylase
- Bolus Propulsion: Peristalsis
- Protein Enzymes (Small Intestine, except): Pepsin
- Water Movement (Semi-Permeable Membrane): Diffusion
- Substance Movement (Lower to Higher Concentration): Secondary active transport
- Macroscopic Food Breakdown: Digestion
- Food Churning (Accessory): Tongue
- Digestion in the Mouth: Mechanical and chemical processes
- Swallowed Food Mass: Bolus
- Stomach and Duodenum Connector: Pyloric sphincter
- HCl Secretion Activator (Stomach): Protein enzyme
- Brush Border Enzymes (except): Salivary amylase
- Large Intestine Bacteria (cannot): Synthesize all vitamins
- Carbohydrate Digestion Falsehoods: Little digestion in stomach due to pH, stomach lacking carbohydrate-hydrolyzing enzymes.
- Protein Digestion Falsehoods: Digestion does not necessarily require enzymes, it can start in the stomach and is completed in the small intestine.
- Fat Absorption Pathway: Fats travel through the lymphatic system and are transported by lipoproteins in the blood.
- Fat Absorption Requirement: Bile salts are necessary for fats to enter the bloodstream
- Phospholipids in Digestion: Assist in fat absorption
