6. Function of myenteric plexus. Role in peristalsis.
7. Define peristalsis, mass movement, segmentation
8. How the activities of the digestive tract are regulated: hormones, ANS, intrinsic nerve plexuses, etc.
9. Salivary glands, their locations and secretions
10. Process of deglutition
11. Cells of the stomach and their secretions.
12. Functions of enzymes associated with digestion, where they are secreted from? See table in text.

53. Responses to metabolic acidosis, metabolic alkalosis, respiratory acidosis, respiratory alkalosis
54. Define electrolytes, buffers, nonelectrolytes
55. How does the body compensate for an increase or decrease in pH?
The essay question will have you trace either the digestive system (GI) tract, or urinary system nephron, or cellular
respiration from start to finish commenting on what happens at each portion along the way with particular attention to
the role of membrane transport in each.
Study Recommendations:
This unit has a lot of material. Start early to avoid stress at the last minute. Turn off the radio and T.V.
Break it into parts to avoid burning out.
Step one: Make sure you have read the chapters. (allow 6 hours )
Step two: Review the Powerpoints from each chapter. (allow 6 hours)
Step three: Draw out the digestive system and label what happens where. Do the same for the nephron.
Label the places where things are absorbed and secreted and what hormones (adh, aldosterone) act where.
Have your peers review your work. Test yourself. See if you can answer those questions that periodically
pop up in the text (blue checkpoints) and check your answers in the appendix of the text.
Step four: Run through the following units on the IP CD: Digestive, Urinary, and Fluid and Electrolytes.
Step five: Run through this review sheet and write down the numbered points.
Which ones do you know, which ones don’t you know? Write and draw them out. Get a spiral
notebook and devote it to the test. Feed-back, until everything is clear.
Step six: The night before the test, get a good 8 hours of sleep and eat a good breakfast the day of the test
