Ingestion and digestion

Activates Trypsinogen enzyme

Nutralizes chyme - Deactivates pepsin

Slows peristalsis movement

Absorbs water, salts, and some vitamins - stores waste until defecation

stores E. Coli - create Vitamin B, K

Damaged liver tissue gets replaced by scar tissue

Yellowing of the skin by bile salts produced in liver but cannot get to gall bladder becuase of gall stones

Bile salts and LDL form blockages in the bile duct

Detoxifies blood by filtering substances

Stores glycogen, vitamin A,B,D

Emulsify fats apart

Made in liver - Stored in gall bladder

Enzyme that digests Lipids

Made in pancreas - S.I.

Enzyme that digests proteins

Erepsinogen --> Erepsin

Made in pancreas - S.I.

Enzyme that breaks proteins down

Trypsinogen --> Trypsin

Made in pancreas - S.I.

Nutralize chyme from the stomach - produce enzymes

Small vessel inside the villi that absorbs fatty acids

Small formations on the villi - greatly increase surface area for absorbtion

Finger like formations on the wall of the small intestine - used to create more surface area for absorbtion

Chemically digest food and absorbs nutrients - transport undigested waste to the large intestine

A tube shaped instrament with a camera - used to diagnose problems inside the body

Histamine is produced to try and counter the ulcer but it makes it worse

The protective layer of mucus breaks down exposing stomach acid to capillary network

Enzyme that starts protein digestion

pepsinogen --> Pepsin

Made in stomach and pancreas - S.I. - Stomach

Acid in the stomach - activate pepsinogen - pH (2-3)

Secreate mucus so the stomach walls dont get dissolved

Lower esphogus gate - pyloric exit

Stores food and starts protein digestion

The gate that controls movement of food and air to their respective places

The rythmic contracions of the esophagus that brings food to the stomach

Enzyme produced in the mouth that digests carbs

Produces amylase enzyme

the removal of undigested materials

Cells absorb small molecules

the process of breaking down foods

Act of eating
