digestive system

enzymes, proteases, lipase, nucleases, amalyse(breaks down starch into simple sugars)

insulin stimulates tissues to absorb glucose from blood and convert into glycogen.Glucagon stimulates tissues to convert to glucose

glucose, fructose, ribose (GFR)

two simple sugars: lactose, sucrose (LS)

long chains of simple sugars. Glycogen, starch (GS)

deoxyribonucleic acid

strands bound by hydrogen bonds between N bases

ribonucleic acid. single strand-assembled at the gene. Transported out of nucleus for protien synthesis.

VLDL, LDL, HDL

very low density lipoproteins- transports triglycerides to tissues

low density lipoprotein- transports cholesterol to tissue

high density lipoproteins-removes excess cholesterol from tissue and returns to liver

arrival of food causes muscular reflexes and secretion of gastrin, resulting in increased mobility and secretion.

carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids, high energy compunds

cephalic, gastric, intestinial

produces bile, and bile salts.

produces bile, and bile salts.

bright green waste product from worn out rbc's.

produced from cholesterol, emulsifies dietary fats, acts like detergent

folding due to adjacent amino acid interaction

parasympathetic activation increases motility and stimulates secretion of acids, mucus and enzymes

enter the lacteal during absorption into the villus. fatty acids, cholesterol and vitamins enter the lymphatic system and bound to proteins

amino acid sequence ecoded by DNA

proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids

persitalsis

enter the capillaries during absorption into the villus. (amino acids, simple sugars, nucleotides, etc. transported to the liver for detox..

why you need food and oxygen

fatty acids=HYDROPHOBIC. phosphate=HYDROPHILLIC

secondary-helixes tertiary-folded portions interact at different locations quartenary-4 gene products from 2 different genes

hormones controlling blood sugar

contain huge amt. of coliform bacteria. Bacteria produce vitamin B water absorption. compactio of feces

diahrea and dysentry, inflammation of the epithelia leads to severe water loss from blood, dehydration may lead to death.

diahrea and dysentry, inflammation of the epithelia leads to severe water loss from blood, dehydration may lead to death.

fats.

triglycerides- 3 fatty acids. Animal fats-saturated fatty acids. Vegetable fats- essential unsaturated fatty acids

adenosine triphosphate- necessay for all body functions that require energy

taste, mastication, mobile tongue, cheeks and lips, saliva, deglutination

multiple gene products are assembled to produce a functional protein.

blood sugar, mobilize gycogen, mobilize triglycerides, mobilize proteins:skeletal muscle

gene products, chains of amino acids, amino acid sequence of a protein is encoded by a gene

one of the leading causes of cancer related deaths, high rates associated w/ fatty diets. Diets rich in fiber can reduce occurence.

secretes hcl and pepsin.

arrival of food in duodenum of small intestine trigers release of hormones that block the effect of gastrin and inhibit gastric activity

carry cell identity

folding and stabilization due to interaction of non-adjacent amino acids

slows the passage of water through the membrane

cholesterol

DNA and RNA
