When two fluids are separated by a selectively permeable membrane, water tends to flow into the fluid that has the __________. lower concentration of solutes proper osmotic equilibrium higher concentration of solutes same osmolarity on each side of the membrane
higher concentration of solutes
which of the following is NOT a function of saliva? helping clean oral surfaces producing amylase increasing dental caries moistening food
increasing dental caries
which of the following produces, on a daily basis, the least number of the peristaltic contractions that force food through the digestive tract? stomach small intestine large intestine esophagus
large intestine
why is diarrhea potentially life threatening? loss of vital nutrients loss of vitamins loss of water and electrolytes loss of bicarbonate ions

How does the mucosa of the rectum compare with that of the colon and the cecum? The colon and the cecum are lined with a simple columnar epithelium, whereas the rectum is lined with a stratified columnar epithelium. The colon and the cecum are lined with a simple columnar epithelium for absorption, whereas the rectum is lined with a stratified squamous epithelium because the rectum is next to the opening to the exterior of the body. The colon and the cecum are lined with a simple cuboidal epithelium for absorption, whereas the rectum is lined with a transitional epithelium, which allows for expansion during defecation. The epithelial lining is constant throughout the large intestine.
The colon and the cecum are lined with a simple columnar epithelium for absorption, whereas the rectum is lined with a stratified squamous epithelium because the rectum is next to the opening to the exterior of the body.
The two positive-feedback loops involved in the defecation reflex are __________. the internal and the external sphincter muscles mass movements and peristaltic contractions the stretch receptors in the rectal walls and the sacral parasympathetic system the anal canal and the anal columns
the stretch receptors in the rectal walls and the sacral parasympathetic system
what is perhaps the most important function of the large intestine? water reabsorption digestion nutrient absorption storage
water reabsorption
