Chapter 23.2, Problem 7CYU
Summary Introduction
To review:
The vitamin of the B complex, which needs the help of a gastric product for its absorption. Also, the name of this product from the stomach, the cells of gastric mucosa that secrete it, the part of the small intestine that absorbs this B vitamin, and the kind of anemia caused by the deficiency of this vitamin.
Introduction:
Vitamins are one of the five categories of nutrients that are required in minute amounts by the body. Some of them are fat soluble, such as vitamins A, D, E, and K, whereas some are water soluble, such as vitamins of B complex and vitamin C. They can act as a coenzyme to facilitate the function of enzymes, as an antioxidant and also help in the

Intrinsic Factor is a protein that plays a role in how the body absorbs Vitamin
- This protein is secreted by the
cells which
are found in the gastric mucosa. A 75 year old male who recently had surgery on the ileum presents with a beefy red tongue. He reports feeling extremely fatigued and
numbness and tingling in the hands. The doctor orders a peripheral blood smear. Based on your knowledge of this chapter, he is most likely to be diagnosed with

Which two types of stomach cells are most likely involved in Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome?arrow_forwardThe diagram shows a liver lobule. Long-term destruction of the hepatocytes, collapse of the histologic architecture, and production of fibrous material in the areas indicated by the arrow is most likely to result in which of the following? 1. A) Decreased intestinal motility 2. B) Gallstones 3. C) Increased central venous pressure 4. D) Increased hepatic venous pressure 5. E) Increased portal pressurearrow_forwardInflammation of the digestive tract is common to most irritable bowel diseases including Crohn’s Disease, IBD Syndrome, and Celiac’s Disease. While each of these diseases causes inflammation by a different mechanism, they all result in decreased capacity to absorb nutrients and minerals. In extreme cases, this can lead to severe diarrhea, malnutrition, osteoporosis (weakening of the bones), and iron deficiency, to name a few. Based on the information above, which region(s) and structure(s) of the alimentary canal is (are) most likely targets of inflammation? Explain your answer based on the roles of each segment of the alimentary canal.arrow_forward

However she did not thoroughly prepare for the significant dietary and lifestyle changes required by such a procedure. She gradually increased the size of her meal portions which significantly increased the volume containment of her stomach. An unscrupulous physician performed a second bypass surgery on Mary, essentially removing most of her gastric tissue. Which of the following would Mary likely demonstrate?
