1glucose absorption from the intestinal lumen is linked to sodium transport
- ATrue
- BFalse
2PROCESS OF SECONDARY ACTIVE TRANSPORT:
involves the generation of a [blank_start]sodium[blank_end] concentration gradient within the cell via the action of the ATP dependant [blank_start]Na+/K+ ATPase pump[blank_end]. sodium will then enter the cell on the [blank_start]luminal[blank_end] side via the [blank_start]Na+/glucose co-transporter[blank_end] along with [blank_start]glucose[blank_end]. It is active because ATP is required to set up the gradient, but it does not directly involve energy- Asodium

4the majority of absorption takes place in the stomach
- ATrue
- BFalse
5trypsin is a pancreatic zymogen
- ATrue
- BFalse
6all digestive enzymes are hydrolases
- ATrue
- BFalse
7enzymes such as lactase and sucrase are secreted into the intestinal lumen to act upon their substrates
- ATrue
- BFalse
8psychogenic diarrhoea is caused by excessive stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system
- ATrue

- Hgall stones
11what layer of the stomach lining would you find the secretory glands
- Amucosa
- Bsubmucosa
- Cadventitia
- Dserosa
12what is the semifluid called that is produced by gastric digestion of food and peristalsis
- Achyme
- Bbile
- Cbolus
- Ddigestive fluids
13where are proteins first digested
- Astomach
- Bsmall intestine
- Clarge intestine
- Dcolon
14what is the name of the enzyme that breaks down kininogen and dilation of the blood vessels supplying the salivary glands
- Atrypsin
- Bkallikrein
- Calpha amylase
- Dlipase
15which of the salivary glands secrete the majority of the digestive enzymes
- Aparotid
- Bsubmandibular
- Csublingual
16what are the epithelial cells that line the lumen of the small intestine termed
- Atransitional epithelium
- Bparietal cells
- Centerocytes
- Dgastric chief cells
17stomach juices are acidic due to the fact that they need to destroy bacteria and provide an optimum pH for the activity of pepsin
- ATrue
- BFalse
18what mechanism is water absorbed from the intestine
- Apassive diffusion
- Bfacilitated diffusion
- Cosmosis
- Dactive transport
19a 22 year old man presented with a history of weight loss, diarrhea, abdominal bloating and anaemia. He described his stools as pale and bulky. lab results included haemaglobin of 90g/L (normal 130-180 g/L). a biopsy was taken of his small bowel
- Acoeliac disease
- Bbowel cancer
- Cpancreatitis
- Dcrohns disease
20COELIAC DISEASE:
its an [blank_start]autoimmune[blank_end] disease caused by sensitivity to gluten, which causes inflammation of the small bowel [blank_start]mucosa[blank_end]. the resulting damage to the [blank_start]mucosa[blank_end] means that the absorptive surface of the [blank_start]small intestine[blank_end] is reduced and the subsequent [blank_start]malabsorption[blank_end] is severe. Pale, bulky stools are a hallmark of steatorrhea, or malabsorption of [blank_start]lipids[blank_end], which are passed in the feces rather than absorbed in the intestine.- Aautoimmune
