"what is the purpose of the hormone leptin - CORRECT ANSWER decrease hunger, increase satiety"
"Which of the following statements is true
concerning glycolysis?
- Pyruvic acid are broken down into glucose.
- Two ATP molecules are formed in first breakdown of glucose.
- Glucose is broken down into three pyruvate molecules.
- Glucose is broken down into two sucrose molecules. - CORRECT ANSWER Two ATP molecules are
formed in first breakdown of glucose"
"Match the structure with the best description:
Dentin:
a. Upper portion of gums
b. Outermost layer
c. Bone-like substance
d. Hard connective tissue
e. Contains longitudinal muscle - CORRECT ANSWER c. Bone-like substance"
"Explain in detail how the stomach contents enter the small intestine - CORRECT ANSWER The pyloric
sphincter (valve), located at the base of the stomach, relaxes causing
a small quantity of chyme to pass through the opening into the first part of the
small intestine.
This initiates a reflex that causes the muscles of the sphincter to contract and
close the opening temporarily. Then the sphincter relaxes again and allows more
chyme to enter."
"Be able to label the following:
Stomach
Gallbladder
Jejunum (not small intestine)
Appendix (not large intestine)
Rectum (not large intestine - CORRECT ANSWER "
"Explain which digestive system functions are carried out by the large intestine. - CORRECT ANSWER
Absorption: In the large intestine water and electrolytes are reabsorbed and
vitamins are absorbed.
Defecation: Feces travel to the rectum where it is excreted via the anus."

"Describe parietal cells and chief cells: name their location, secretions and purposes. - CORRECT

ANSWER The parietal cells (located in the wall of the stomach body) secrete hydrochloric

acid, generating a pH of 1.3-3.5. This very acidic pH kills many of the bacteria ingested along with food. In addition, the low pH stops the activity of salivary amylase. The secretion of hydrochloric acid is essential in the activation of pepsin. Chief cells: secrete pepsinogen. Pepsinogen (a pre-enzyme) is secreted by the chief cells in the stomach. Hydrochloric acid converts the inactive pepsinogen (secreted by the chief cells) into the active enzyme pepsin which begins the breakdown of proteins" "Match the digestive organ with the one substance it produces: Large intestine stomach small intestine Vitamine K Secretin Trypsin Salivary amylase

Pepsinogen - CORRECT ANSWER Large intestine = vitamin K

stomach = pepsinogen small intestine = secretin" "Which of the following statements is false? A. Taste buds are located on the surface of the mouth and the wall of the pharynx. B. The ileocecal valve controls the entrance of chyme into to the small intestine. C. The gall bladder, teeth, and tongue are considered accessory organs to the digestive system.

D. The alimentary canal is a continuous muscular tube, open at both ends - CORRECT ANSWER B. The

ileocecal valve controls the entrance of chyme into to the small intestine. (It controls the entrance to the large intestine)" "True/False: Lipids can be divided into three categories: saturated fat, unsaturated fat,

and cholesterol. - CORRECT ANSWER True"

"True/False: Anabolism combines smaller molecules to make larger molecules - CORRECT ANSWER

True"

e. Secretes Vitamin K - CORRECT ANSWER d. Pancreas secretions enter here via Hepatopancreatic

e. Contains lymph vessels and nerves - CORRECT ANSWER b. Joins with the pancreatic duct"

“Explain why someone who has hypergastrinemia (excessive secretion of gastrin) might develop

gastric/stomach ulcers. - CORRECT ANSWER Gastrin stimulates the secretions of pepsinogens and

hydrochloric acid. Excess amounts would lead to erosion of the stomach lining." "A patient is experiencing vitamin toxicity. What type of vitamin would be causing this toxicity? Explain your answer. A. Water soluble vitamin B. Fat soluble vitamin

C. All of the above - CORRECT ANSWER Fat soluble vitamins are stored within the body's fat stores

d. This is also known as the electron transport system - CORRECT ANSWER d. This is also known as the

electron transport system" "Which of the following statements is false concerning the Electron Transport System?

a. Anaerobic respiration is more efficient than aerobic respiration. b. Approximately a total of 34 ATP are formed. c. Protons are pumped out of the inner mitochondrial membrane.

d. The proton motive force forms ATP molecules - CORRECT ANSWER a. Anaerobic respiration is more

efficient than aerobic respiration."
