Across
  1. 5. cells which release sodium bicarbonate to reduce acidity
  2. 6. converted to active form carboxypeptidase by trypsin
  3. 7. cells which secrete gastrin to stimulate chief, ECL, and parietal cells
  4. 12. cells which secrete HCl and intrinsic factor to absorb vitamin B12
  5. 15. converted to trypsin by enteropeptidase
  6. 17. secretions outside of the body like into the gut lumen
  7. 19. 5% of the small intestine where most absorption happens
  8. 21. major smooth muscle coat of the digestive tract
  9. 22. cells which produce pepsinogen
  10. 24. breakdown of structurally complex foods into absorbable units
  11. 25. small emulsified lipid droplets which can diffuse into enterocytes
  12. 27. releases bile salts
Down
  1. 1. thick layer of connective tissue in the digestive tube
  2. 2. the only enzyme which can digest fat in adult humans
  3. 3. repackaged fatty acids and proteins which can be exocytosis to lymph vessels
  4. 4. cells which secrete a thin watery mucus to the lumen
  5. 8. converted to active form chymotrypsin by trypsin
  6. 9. movement mostly in the small intestine for mixing
  7. 10. cells which secrete somatostatin to inhibit chief, ECL, and parietal cells
  8. 11. a highly folded surface which lines the lumen to aid in absorption
  9. 13. where fat digestion begins
  10. 14. the outermost layer of the digestive tract to support and allow mixing of digestive organs
  11. 16. a form of movement to push food throughout the digestive tract
  12. 18. where carbohydrate digestion begins
  13. 20. cells which produce histamine
  14. 23. the upper part of the stomach
  15. 26. where protein digestion begins
  16. 28. secretions inside the body which travel via the bloodstream
