Question

BIOL 325 Physiology Name: Homework #12. Digestion Section: 1. (2pts) For the features below indicate whether they are associated with the muscularis externa, submucosa, serosa, or mucosa. supports absorption of nutrients into the blood vessels and lacteals. produces a low friction outer surface. produces movements including peristalsis and segmentation. region responsible for digestive secretions including stomach acid, some enzymes and hormones. 2. (5pts) Fill in the chart below. Please use the phrase 'almost none' for the lower two rows if it applies. Feature Mouth Esophagus Stomach Small Intestine Large Intestine What epithelium lines the mucosa? Chemical Digestion of what macromolecules occurs here? (carbs, fats, proteins, nucleic acids) Absorption of what macromolecules occurs here? (carbs, fats, proteins, nucleic acids)

Explanation / Answer

Submucosa supports absorption of nutrient into blood vessel.

Serosa -low friction outer surface.

Muscularus externa -help inperistlasisal and segmentation

Mucosa -responsible for digestuv secretion.

Mouth -stratified squamous epithellium

Digestion of carbohydrates starts here

No absorption

Oesophagus -stratified squamous epiyhellium

No absorption and digestion

Stomach - simple columnar epithellium

Digestion of carbohydrate ,protein starts here.

No absirption.

Small intenstine-cilliated columnar epithellium

Digstion of all molecule starts here and also absorption

Large intenstine- columnar epithellium

No digestion

Absorption of carbohydrate
