This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Digestive System CHAP23 rybergcalandraambroseosypiukwestover, Stomach secretes enzymes in response to Gastrin, Amylase breaks down Carbs, Small Intestine in reponse to presence of fatty chyme secretes Duodenal Hormones, Protease when active, digests Proteins, Stomach G cells secrete Gastrin, Protease activated in the Small Intestine, Parasympatethic Nervous System increases gastric secretion in the Stomach, Stomach environment is made very acidic by secretion of HCl, Gastrin stimulates parietal cell secretion of HCl, Liver produces Bile, Gallbladder stores and releases Bile, HCl in stomach neutralized by bicarb-rich juice of Pancreas, Liver collects absorbed nutrients from venous Blood, Hormones regulate secretion of juice of Pancreas, Duodenal Hormones can cause contraction of Gallbladder, Bile emulsifies Lipids, Lipids in the form of chylomicrons exocytose into lacteals of Lymph, Small Intestine has a large surface area, and thus is the main site of Absorption, Pancreas has acinar cells, which produce enzymes to break down Proteins, Hormones produced by pancreas play role in metabolism of Carbs
