Question

Hello, May I get help with this question? I do not understand it, steps leading to the correct answer would be helpful. Question: Bruce B. was deep in the woods and drank something he probably shouldn't have (why do people keep doing this?!?!). He's with a medical doctor and trained outdoorsman who tells him that, if he doesn't get treatment immediately, the toxins in the fluid will start to lock tropinin in place just in the sarcomeres in his digestive system. He asks you, an actual physiologist, what this means and what parts of digestion, secretion, absorption, and motility will be affected. Which of the following will be MOST affected...(see image)

The image contains a list of physiological processes related to digestion, as follows:

1. Motility in intestinal phase
2. Motility in the gastric phase
3. Absorption in the intestinal phase
4. Digestion in the cephalic phase
5. YES

There are no graphs or diagrams in the image. This list appears to be related to the processes of digestion and absorption that occur in the different phases of the digestive system.

Definition Definition Organ system that helps in the digestion of food by mechanical and biochemical processes. The digestive system breaks down food into simpler components that enable the body to then absorb or transport nutrients. The human digestive system includes the gastrointestinal tract or alimentary canal and the associate glands. The organs of the gastrointestinal tract include the mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine. The associated glands include salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas.
