Dorsum
nasi
The length of the nose
The root
The region of the nose located between the eyebrows
Philtrum
The concave surface that connects the apex of the nose to the upper lip
ethmoid bone
The nasal septum is formed posteriorly by the perpendicular plate of the
Nasopharynx
Flanked by the conchae of the nasal cavity and serves only as an airway
fauces
The opening at the connection between the oropharynx and the oral cavity
Uvula
A small bulbous, teardrop-shape structure
epiglottis
A very flexible piece of cartilage that covers the opening of the trachea
type
1
alveolar
cell
Squamous epithelial cell of the alveoli, which makes up 97% of the surface area
type
2 alveolar cell
Secretes pulmonary surfactant
High
;
low
Gas moves from an area of high partial pressure to an area of low partial pressure
internal respiration
Gas exchange that occurs at the level of the tissue
The partial pressure of oxygen in the tissues is low because
Partial pressure of oxygen in the alveoli is 104mmHg, whereas its partial pressure in the blood is about 40mmHg
This causes
oxygen
to rapidly cross the respiratory membrane from
alveoli
into the
blood
When oxygen binds to a hemoglobin molecule
The
affinity
of the other hemoglobin molecules for oxygen
increases
Which of the following factors play a role in the oxygen-hemoglobin saturation dissociation curve?
During the chloride shift
Bicarbonate
is removed from the
erythrocyte
small intestine
The organ of digestive tract where most digestion and absorption occurs
stomach
The organ of the digestive tract where digestion of proteins is initiated
large intestine
The primary function is to finish the absorption of the water and nutrients
mouth
The organ of the digestive tract where digestion of starch is initiated
incisors
The teeth responsible for slicing through food
molars
The teeth responsible for grinding through food
muscularis
The layer of the alimentary canal responsible for moving food through the canal
submucosa
Includes blood and lymphatic vessels which transport absorbed nutrients
liver
Bile is produced by the
cardiac sphincter
Food passes from the esophagus to stomach at the
pyloric sphincter
Food passes from the stomach to the small intestine at the
duodenum
Secretions from the liver and pancreas enter the alimentary canal at the
small intestine
In the, chemical digestion occurs not only in lumen, but also on the luminal surfaces of mucosal cells
parietal
Cells of the gastric glands secrete HCL and intrinsic factor
During the gastric phase, distention of the stomach activates stretch receptors
Which
inhibits
secretion of
gastric
juices
Pylorus
Which holds about 30ml of chyme, acts as a filter, permitting only liquids and small food particles to pass to the small intestine
Fundus
AND
Body
Cells of the produce most gastric secretions
lacteals
Triglycerides in the lumen are absorbed by
Lingual lipase is activated in the stomach by
HCL
The hormone,
gastrin
Villi
Hairlike vascularized projections of the small intestine are called
chief
Cells of the gastric glands secrete pepsinogen
hepatic flexure
The ascending colon terminates at the
