digestive systems , what processes go on in these divisions?
Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- If you fed an experimental animal (a mammal) a special food that consisted of all 20 amino acids, glucose and a wide variety of fatty acids, along with all needed vitamins and minerals, how would its digestive system handle this food? What would be normal and what, if anything, would be abnormal about its food processing? Is it likely to be adequately nourished?Food digestion occurs in much the same way in all vertebrates and many invertebrates. Which describes this common process?There are several processes that take place from the moment food enters our mouth until it is completely digested and used for energy. Using approximately 400-500 words, describe in detail and in order of process the mechanical (stomach and intestine)and chemical (gastric acid and enzymes) digestion of eating a grilled chicken sandwich with mayonnaise, lettuce, and tomatoes. Note what role the pancreas, gallbladder, and liver play in digestion of the ingredients? From what ingredients is your body deriving its energy and how many basic calories from the macronutrients ingested? Include at least two scholarly references (using APA formatting and style) to guide your answers (note that you can use your textbook as one of your references).
- Which of the following types of movement is responsible for the mixing of food in the GI tract? Group of answer choices Deglutition Mass movement Peristalsis Segmentation In the digestion of lipids, a chylomicron contains Group of answer choices Both monoglycerides and fatty acids Monoglycerides Fatty acids Triglycerides Which of the following components of digestion is responsible for the chemical breakdown of foods? Group of answer choices Chewing Enzymatic hydrolysis Dissolving Emulsification Which of the following is a hormone that stimulates the pancreas to secrete bicarbonate? Group of answer choices Cholecystokinin Secretin Gastrin Glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptideDefine the following processes happening in the digestive system: Ingestion Mechanical Digestion Chemical Digestion Motility: Peristalsis Motility: Segmentation Secretion Absorption Reabsorption (and Compaction) DefecationWhat three classes of nutrients are most abundant? Whatare the end products of enzymatic digestion of each?
- Which kinds of food molecules undergo chemical digestion, and which do not?What is the difference between chemical and physical digestion? Please given one detailed example of where they occur during the digestion process.Where does chemical digestion begin? Where in the digestive tract does most of the chemical digestion take place? Where does absorption begin? Where in the digestive tract does most of the absorption take place?
- describe the mechanical and chemical digestive process of eating a chicken sandwich. What roles do the pancreas, gallbladder, and liver play? Where is your body deriving its energy from?Follow the route food takes in the human GI tract and know the organs and their key functions including key fluids that are secreted. What actually does the stomach in humans do? (it is NOT the main place of digestion). What is bile (not a digestive enzyme) and where made, where secreted? What does pancreas contribute? Where is most of the food actually broken down into smaller molecular parts = digested? What is major role of large intestine (not digestion, not most absorption of nutrients) What are the muscular contractions that move it all?Which of the following statements regarding digestive systems are correct? Glucose monomers are linked together by alpha 1-4 glycosidic bonds in both starch and cellulose. Gastrin is produced by exocrine cells of the gastric glands. Pepsinogen and gastric acid (HCl) are both secreted into the lumen of the stomach.
