- 55How does H2O enter the enterocyte and leave the enterocyte (to blood or lymph)?Osmosis to enter, osmosis to leave (blood, lymph)
- 56How much H2O is absorbed at small intestine per day and what are the portions?~8500 mL/day absorbed at small intestine, assuming
a) H2O ingested in food/drink = ~2000 mL/day
b) H2O from secretions = ~7000 mL/day
so... ~9000 mL/day enters small intestine, ~500 mL/day lost to large intestine - 57Where do absorbed nutrients go?a) to liver via hepatic portal vein (blood)
b) into lacteals (lymph) --> thoracic duct --> left subclavian vein - 58Where does fat digestion, absorption require bile from?a) liver (synthesizes)

- 64What is the cephalic phase? What are the triggers?Prepares stomach for food
-Triggers = thought, sight, smell, taste of food - 65What does the NS (PSNS + enteric) affect for the cephalic phase?Ups enzymes (pepsinogen and lipase), ups gastrin secretion (hormone), ups acid and ups smooth muscle motility
- 66What happens if no food enters stomach?Low pH inhibits secretion
- 67What happens during the gastric phase?Food in stomach - distension
Activates stretch receptors - 68What happens with the NS (enteric + PSNS) for the gastric phase?Ups enzymes (pepsinogen and lipase), ups gastrin secretion (hormone), ups acid and ups smooth muscle motility
- 69What is food and how does it affect pH? What happens when pH < 3?= buffer - pH reduces slowly, reaches 3 when stomach nearly empty
-shuts down NS (enteric) --> lowers acid, enzymes
-lowers gastrin so lower acid, enzymes - 70What does the intestinal phase do?Controls rate of chyme (= food + gastric juice) entry into duodenum
- 71Why is gastric emptying regulated?So that:
a) acid can be neutralized in small intestine (or enzymes won't work)
b) tonicity does not overwhelm small intestine
c) there is time for digestion/absorption in small intestine - 72What happens during intestinal phase?a) Initially (for a short time) - get higher gastric secretion - duodenal gastrin release (due to duodenal stretch)
b) Then inhibitory signals cause:
-i) downs gastric motility (slows emptying) due to:
-> 1) CCK --> released due to presence of fa, aa
-> 2) enterogastric reflex (enteric NS) - triggered by aa/peptides, acid, duodenal stretch, hypertonicity - lower motility
--> i) directly
--> ii) signals CNS --> SNS
-ii) downs gastric secretion (acid, enzymes) due to:
-> 1) secretin --> released due to acid
-> 2) CCK --> released due to aa, fa - 73What is the hormone from the stomach (and duodenum) and what does it do?Gastrin: ups acid, gastric enzyme secretion (lipase + pepsinogen)
- 74What are the hormones from duodenum and what do they do?Secretin
a) ups alkaline fluid secretion - duct cells of pancreas, gallbladder
b) lowers gastric secretion
