FSHN 120 Exam 1 || Answers 100% Rated Correct.
Digestive tract correct answers Acquires the nutrients your body needs from food
Those nutrients are then used to make the fabric of your body
Digestion- the process of breaking large food molecules down to smaller molecules that can be
absorbed
Tissue correct answers Group of cells acting together to perform a common function
Example
- Muscle Tissue
- Nervous Tissue
How the body is organized correct answers 1. Cell
2. Tissue
3. Organ
4. Organ systrm
5. Body
Chemical Digestion correct answers Enzymatic reactions that break down large food molecules
(stomach acid, pancreatic enzyme).
By salivary amylase to digest starch
Mechanical Digestion correct answers The physical breakdown of food (chewing, churning)
What a cell needs correct answers 1. Oxygen
,2. Water
3. Carbs
4. Amino Acids
5. Lipids
Organ systems correct answers Cardiovascular
Lymphatic
Nervous
Endocrine
Immune
Digestive / gastrointestinal (GI) tract
Urinary
Integumentary
Skeletal
Muscular
Respiratory
Reproductive
What is the job of each organ system? correct answers The Cardiovascular system:
transports nutrients to individual cells in the body
Endocrine system:
Secretes hormones that help regulate how much we eat and how quickly food and nutrients travel
through the digestive system
The Nervous system:
Sends nerve signals that help control the passage of food through the digestive tract
, The Urinary, Integumentary, and Respiratory system:
Help aid in the elimination of wastes
Digestive Tract correct answers 1. Mouth
Chews food and mixes it with saliva
Accessory: Salivary glands
produce saliva which contains a starch-digesting enzyme
2. Esophagus
Moves food to the stomach. A long tube where little mechanical digestion occurs and no
chemical digestion occurs
3. Stomach
Churns and mixes food and secretes acid and a protein-digesting enzyme. Chemical digestion of
protein using the protease pepsin
The stomach is very acidic! The acid in the stomach also aids in the protein digestion.
Accessory: Liver
makes bile, which aids in digestion and absorption of fat. Bile contains salts that emulsify fats.
Gallbladder: stores bile and releases it into the small intestine when needed
