Effects of increased O2 levels in the blood and consequent constriction cerebral blood vessels.

Increased CO2 levels caused by increase in cellular respiration. Reducing brain perfusion and cousin ischemia

Lowered CO2 levels in the blood and consequent constriction of cerebral blood vessels

Air moves into the lungs because ______.

The gas pressure in the lungs becomes lower than the outside pressure as the diaphragm contracts

Contraction of the diaphragm decreases the volume of the plural cavity

The volume of the lungs decreases with inspiration

The torax is muscular

Increased salivation

What would be the effect of stripping the small intestines of their villi?

A duodenal ulcer would develop

The large intestine would take over as the primary absorptive site

Decreased surface area for absorption would cause weight loss to occur

Greater absorption of nutrients would occur

The movement of air into and out of the lungs is called ________.

The elastic cartilage that shields the opening to the larynx during swallowing is the _______.

A ruptured appendix is life threatening because ______.

It is likely to cause severe internal bleeding

Loss of the appendix's function will cause an immune deficiency in the digestive system

The large intestine will no longer be able to receive digested material from the small intestin

It is likely to cause massive infection of the abdominopelivic cavity

Bile is both an excretory product and a digestive secretion

Bile functions to emulsify fats

Which of the following is the best illustration of the difference between metabolism and digestion?

Digestions must happen first for metabolism to follow it

Digestion requires enzymes for it to take place while metabolism does not necessarily need or use them.

Metabolism comprises all of the chemical reactions performed within the body while digestion is only the breakdown of food within the GI tract.

Digestion has a wide variety of chemical reactions while metabolism is restricted to only a few reaction types.

Which of the following is the best explanation of the benefit in the digestive system having the largest collection of lymphoid tissue (MALT) at the distal end of the small intestine?

The huge numbers of bacteria living in the large intestine must be prevented from entering the lumen of the small intestine and being absorbed with food's nutrients into the blood stream.

The digestive systems first and foremost job is to digest and absorb nutrients so it puts off immunity for last.

The body will actively excrete pathogens out of the body, into the digestive system, to be removed from the body in feces.
