Anatomy and Physiology II – Spring 2015 Test 3 1. What is the function of surfactant? Why is its lack so problematic for premature infants? (2 pts) Decreases surface tension in alveoli; premature infants often lack it and risk alveoli collapsing after exhaling 2. What are THREE functions of the respiratory system? (3 pts) Intake of air and transit to lungs; gas exchange; voice production; warm and humidify incoming air 3. Give the formula for aerobic respiration and state specifically how the digestive and respiratory systems work in quick-release energy storage in the form of ATP (3 pts) Glucose (C6H12O6) + O2 → H2O + CO2 + energy to make ATP Digestive system brings in the glucose; respiratory system brings in the O2 and eliminates the CO2 4. If Sam has LOW levels of CO2 in his blood how will that affect his blood pH? Explain briefly WHY this is so. (2 pts) His blood will be more basic since CO2 in water forms carbonic acid, lowering the blood pH. Low levels of CO2 will therefore raise the pH 5. Name THREE sphincters in the digestive system AND their locations and functions. (3 pts) Esophageal (cardiac) sphincter – stops acid reflux from stomach back into esophagus Pyloric sphincter retains material in stomach until time to move into the duodenum Anal sphincters (2 of them) prevent release of feces until the proper time 6. Match the respiratory volume with its characteristic (4 pts) __A__ Amount that may be breathed out after a normal breath __C__ Amount that can’t be exhaled from lungs A. B. C. D. Expiratory reserve volume Tidal volume Residual volume Vital capacity __B__ Amount of air exchanged in a normal breath __D__ All the air that can be taken into the lungs during a forced inspiration followed by a forced expiration 7. Describe briefly THREE ways in which the endocrine and exocrine functions of the pancreas differ. (3 pts) Endocrine – ductless glands; release insulin and other hormones that travel great distance through blood Exocrine – several secretions (including trypsin and chymotrypsin) are released via ducts into the duodenum Name TWO exocrine and ONE endocrine secretion from the pancreas AND give their function. Be SPECIFIC!!! (3 pts) Chymotrypin – protein digestion Trypsin – activates other digestive enzymes Bicarbonate – acts as buffer Insulin and glucagon are endocrine secretions; former decreases blood sugar levels while latter increases it 1 8. Where is the glottis located? Be SPECIFIC! (1 pt) Under the epiglottis, top of larynx 9. Name the five types of taste buds. (3 pts) Sweet, salty, bitter, sour, umami Do they function if the food material is dry? No – taste buds register materials in fluid 10. What TWO muscles are involved in expiration? (2 pts) Relaxation of diaphragm and contraction of internal intercostals 11. What are the MAJOR function(s) of each of the following: (15 pts) a. Trachea? (1 function) To transport air to and from lungs b. Stomach? (2 functions) Chemical digestion of foods via HCl and pepsin and mechanical digestion via churning action of muscles c. Epiglottis? (1 function) Prevents food and fluids from entering trachea d. Colon? (2 functions) Absorption of water, ions, vitamins; house beneficial bacteria f. Appendix? (1 function) Houses wbc that help to protect the gut from infection g. Vocal folds? (1 function) Voice production h. Tracheal cartilage? (1 function) Ensure that trachea doesn’t collapse between breathes i. Alveoli? (1 function) Gas (CO2 and O2) exchange j. Trypsin? (1 function) Activates other digestive enzymes in the duodenum f. Rugae of the stomach? (1 function) Increase surface area, help in mechanical digestion g. Rectum? (1function) Store and release feces h. Villi in the duodenum? (1 function) Increase surface area for absorption of nutrients i. Chief cells in the stomach (1 function) Secrete pepsin 12. DESCRIBE FOUR functions of the liver (4 pts) Detoxifies material coming into body Degrades bilirubin Produces bile Stores and releases glucose in the form of glycogen Important for blood sugar homeostasis 13. What could happen if the epiglottis malfunctioned? (1 pt) Aspirate food/fluid into lungs 2 14. Give a reason why the elderly generally have a lower vital capacity than younger people. (1 pt) Compression of vertebrae makes them stoop over, decreasing chest volume Lower level of physical activity 15. Name the four types of permanent teeth in humans. (4 pts) Incisors, canines, premolars, molars 16. Name the THREE salivary glands AND their locations. (3 pts) Parotid – near ear Submandibular – under mandible Sublingual – under tongue What are TWO functions of saliva? (2 pts) Moisten and lubricate food; allow taste buds to identify food wetted food; contains amylase and IgA 17. What is the esophageal hiatus? (1 pt) Break in the diaphragm that allows passage of esophagus from thoracic into abdominal cavity Describe a hiatal hernia (1 pt) Part of stomach protrudes back up through the esophageal hiatus into the thoracic cavity 18. What SPECIFIC tissue type lines the alveoli? (1 pt) Simple squamous epithelium 19. What SPECIFIC tissue type lines the primary bronchi? (1 pt) Psuedostratified columnar epithelium 20. What SPECIFIC tissue type lines the esophagus? (1 pt) Stratified squamous epithelium 21. What is the function of mucus in the digestive system? (1 pt) Protect tissue from damage due to acid exposure Name one digestive system organ that produces it (1 pt) Stomach 22. What is the function of mucus in the respiratory system? (1 pt) Trap particles and microbes; prevent them from passing on to inner portions of lungs Name one SPECIFIC structure in the respiratory system that produces it (1 pt) Trachea Name the specific cell type in the respiratory structure above that produces mucus. (1 pt) Goblet cells 23. What is the function of the uvula? Where is it located? BE SPECIFIC!! (2 pts) Prevent exit of material form pharynx out into the nasal cavity; at top of pharynx, in rear 24. Name the FOUR major regions of the stomach. (2 pts) Cardiac, fundic, body, pyloric 3 25. Name the SIX regions of the large intestine IN ORDER (3 pts) Cecum; ascending, transverse, descending, and sigmoid colon; rectum 26. What digestive system organ functions as both an endocrine and exocrine gland? List one of its endocrine and one of its exocrine secretions AND give the SPECIFIC function of each. (3 pts) Pancreas See question #7 27. What disease results from inadequate amounts of intrinsic factor? What SPECIFIC cells in that organ normally make it? Name 1other secretion that that cell type secretes in that organ. (3 pts) Pernicious anemia; parietal cells; HCl 28. Name FOUR factors that affect the taste of food. (4 pts) Perception of taste buds; smell; texture; person’s nutritional and hormonal state; hunger; temperature; appearance; pain (hot peppers) 29. Describe why those living with cystic fibrosis might become malnourished. Be specific! (1 pt) Thick pancreatic secretions may impede flow of digestive enzymes needed to digest food from reaching the duodenum How might this lead to pancreatitis? (1 pt) If enzymes are trapped in pancreas, they may become activated there by trypsin, digesting and damaging the pancreas 30. List 3 digestive enzymes that degrade carbohydrates and the organ producing each (3 pts) Pancreatic amylase – pancreas; maltase, sucrose, lactase - duodenum 31. List 3 digestive enzymes that degrade proteins and the organ that produces each of them (3 pts) Chymotrysin and elastase – pancreas; pepsin – stomach 32.
