gastrin, cholecystokinin ( CCK) and digestive enzumes from pancreas

lipolysis

glycerol released from triglycerides in adipose tissue is broken down by this process, hydrolysies triglycerides from fatty acids and glyceral

glycogenolysis

glycogen that was formed durring the absorptive state can be broken down into molecues of glyoce by hydrolysis in this process

platelets

gragments of membrane encolsed cytosol and lack a nucleous,important for blood cltos

describe the T wave of an EKG

result from repolarizatino of ventricles back to their resting state, and associated with relation, distole begins again

describe the impact of diarrhea on public health

resulted from pathogen, or food sensitives, medication, stress and parasite, results in dehydration, loss of nutrients and ions,

chylomicrons

resynthessized triglycerides form this, large droplets coated with protein that perform an emuslfiying functions similar to that of bile salt

veins

returns partially deoxygenated blood to heart bia these vesesls

peristalsis

rythemic spontaneous waves of smooth muscle contraction that begin near the mouth and end at the stomach

stomach

sac like organ that most likely evolved as a mean of stroing food

describe the mechanism of digestion and absorption of carbohydrates in vertebrates

samm amout of polysacchardie is digesten in mourth by salivary amylase, mostly happens in small intestin by amylase, enzymes located on bush border, monosacharides abosrbed,

describe passive absorption of food

simple or facilitated diffucsion of nutriention across epithelial cell canal

liver

site of bile production

anus

the opening at the posterior end of the alimentary canal

small inestine

the portion of the alimentary canal that leads from the stomach to the large intestine, or the anus or cloaca, where absorption of nutrients and water occur

nutrition

the process of consuming and using food and nutrients

ruminants

type of herbivoes, lack enzyme to digest cellulose, able to digest with the help of miccorganisms living iwithin their digestive tract

gastrin

type of hormone, reachest stomachthrough bloodstream in reponse to food

gallbladder

undermeath liver, secerted bile stored here

countercurrent exchange

used by endotherms and ectotherms regulate heat loss to the enviorment, heat is transferred between fluids flwing in opposite directions

indirect calorimetry

usual method for emasuring metabolic rate, based on the principe that animals require oxygen to meabolize foostuffs
