a.

Hunger is best described as: a- a physiological drive to consume food b- a psychological drive to consume food c- eating that is often driven by environmental cues d- eating that is often driven by emotional cues

a.

The physiological need for food with no appetite is known as: a- anorexia b- satiety c- starvation d- hunger

a.

What is the cephalic phase of digestion? a- the earliest phase of digestion in which the brain prepares the body in anticipation of food b- the phase in which semi-digested food leaves the stomach and slowly enters the small intestine c- the phase in which the majority of absorption occurs, primarily in the small intestine d- the final phase of digestion in which the large intestine and rectum prepare the undigested components of food for elimination

Which of the following treatments would be appropriate for treating a peptic ulcer? a- antibiotics b- aspirin c- ibuprofen d- eliminating spicy foods from the diet

a.

Which process does salivary amylase initiate? a- carbohydrate digestion b- lipid emulsification c- protein digestion d- inhibition of bacterial growth

a.

A lipase is an enzyme that digests: a- protein b- fat c- carbohydrate d- alcohol

b.

Bile is produced by: a- gallbladder b- liver c- stomach d- pancreas

b.

Chemical digestion of which nutrient occurs in the mouth? a- alcohol b- carbohydrate c- fat d- protein

b.

During digestion, hydrochloric acid produced in the stomach begins the process of: a- carbohydrate digestion b- denaturing proteins c- fat emulsification d- neutralizing acidic chyme

b.

How do the pancreas and small intestine function together in the process of digestion? a- The pancreas produces hydrochloric acid (HCl) and releases it to the small intestine. b- The pancreas stores inactive digestive enzymes, and they are activated in the small intestine. c- The pancreas produces bile, and the small intestine releases it for fat emulsification. d- The pancreas absorbs remaining nutrients and passes them to the small intestine.

b.

Hunger and appetite differ in that: a- hunger is psychosocial, appetite is physiological b- hunger is internally driven; appetite is externally driven c- hunger is typically a pleasant sensation; appetite is a negative sensation d- hunger relates to a specific food; appetite is a general sense of desire

b.

A bolus travels from the mouth to the stomach via the: a- trachea b- nasal sinuses c- esophagus d- epiglottis

c.

c.

A savory taste due to the presence of glutamic acid is called: a- bitter b- sour c- umami d- salty

c.

Chyme remains in the stomach for at least 2 hours because: a- it must be converted to a much less acidic pH before entering the duodenum b- the ileocecal valve is too small to pass it all at once c- the small intestine can be hold only a small fraction of the stomach volume at a time d- moving food into the small intestine too quickly can lead to an ulcer

c.

Immediately after absorption, what circulatory system carries most of the fat-soluble nutrients? a- vascular b- mesenteric c- lymphatic d- enterohepatic

c.

The ___________ is the organ most responsible for prompting us to seek food. a- stomach b- small intestine c- hypothalamus d- mouth

c.

The ____________ located in the walls of the GI tract helps control digestion, absorption, and elimination. a- peripheral nervous system b- hepatic nervous system c- enteric nervous system d- gastric nervous system

c.

The hormone ________ is released after the ingestion of a meal and triggers the stomach to release digestive juices. a- leptin b- insulin c- gastrin d- amylase

c.

Hydrochloric acid is secreted by which cells in the stomach? a- enterocytes b- mucus neck cells c- chief cells d- parietal cells

d.

Responding to the presence of protein and fat in our meal, cholecystokinin signals the gallbladder to release a substance called: a- lipase b- pepsin c- chyme d- bile

d.

The main role of the esophagus in digestion is to: a- release bile for fat emulsification b- initiate the chemical breakdown of carbohydrates c- compact food into feces d- transport food to the stomach
