The function of intrinsic factor is to

aid in the absorption of vitamin B12

Break down large food molecules into smaller food molecules to promote absorption

enzymes

Gastric glands are found in

gastric pits

The process of chewing is called ____.

accessory organs

Secretion

Process by which substances are added to the digestive tract to lubricate, liquefy, buffer and digest the food

Ingestion

The intake of solid or liquid food into the stomach

These are serous membranes that secrete a serous lubricating fluid.

Muscular contractions that move food back and forth within the digestive tract to mix it with digestive secretions

Which plexus is more extensive and controls motility of the digestive tract?

Myenteric plexus

Elimination

Process by which waste products are removed from the body

Identify the hormones that decrease gastric secretions and gastric motility.

Secretin Cholecystokinin
