Across
  1. 3. contractions that propel GI contents forward
  2. 4. produced in the liver and secreted from the gall bladder. Supports digestion of lipids
  3. 5. this hormone is released from endocrine cells in the duodenum and stimulates HCO3- secretion from the exocrine pancreas
  4. 7. this enzyme digests maltose into 2 glucose molecules
  5. 8. digestion begins here
  6. 12. this sphincter separates the contents in the stomach from those in the small intestine
  7. 13. this enzyme digests lactose into glucose and galactose
  8. 17. this enzyme digests sucrose into glucose and fructose
  9. 19. one of the pancreatic enzymes that digests polypeptides into small peptides
  10. 21. these structures form the brush border within the small intestine
  11. 22. a package made of bile salts and digested lipids, ready for absorption
Down
  1. 1. the inactive form of the enzyme that digests protein in the stomach
  2. 2. the name of the type of enzyme that digests fat
  3. 5. the gland secretes most of the saliva
  4. 6. chemical digestion of this nutrient begins in the mouth
  5. 7. this is the innermost lining of the GI tract that faces the lumen
  6. 9. the name of the cells that make up the exocrine pancreas
  7. 10. the packaged-up lipids that are absorbed into the lymphatic vessels
  8. 11. a hormone secreted from diffuse neuroendocrine system (DNES) cells, that stimulates HCl secretion from parietal cells
  9. 14. this part of the nervous system resides within the GI tract
  10. 15. this phase of GI regulation is initiated before food is ingested
  11. 16. the name of the type of enzyme that digests carbohydrate
  12. 18. the acidic fluid produced in the stomach, consisting of gastric juices and partly digested food
  13. 20. these cells secrete pepsinogen and gastric lipase into the gastric pits
