Explain why someone who has hypergastrinemia (excessive secretion of gastrin)
might develop gastric/stomach ulcers. - CORRECT ANSWERS Gastrin
stimulates the secretions of pepsinogens and hydrochloric acid. Excess
amounts would lead to erosion of the stomach lining.
Explain in detail how the stomach contents enter the small intestine - CORRECT
ANSWERS 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 ANSWERS

Explain which digestive system functions are carried out by the large intestine. -
CORRECT ANSWERS 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 ANSWERS 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 ANSWERS Large intestine = vitamin K
stomach = pepsinogen
small intestine = secretin
