Q

does the ME of the GB have a normal pattern?

A

no- thin smooth muscle layer with disorganized muscle arrangement

14

is the covering of the GB serosa or adventitia?

A

mostly serosa but some adventitia where it attaches to liver

15
Q

what is the pancreas surrounded by?

A

thin CT capsule

16

exocrine- enzyme producing

19
Q

which pancreatic cells help to buffer chyme?

A

centroacinar and cuboid cells in pancreatic intercalated ducts

20
Q

A

endocrine pancreas- pancreatic islets

21
Q

is the serous acini producing digestive enzymes endocrine or exocrine pancreas?

A

exocrine pancreas

22
Q

what is the largest portion of the pancreas?

A

exocrine portion

23
Q

the serous(pancreatic) acini secretion is controlled by?

A

next to acinar cells

26
Q

what wraps around pancreatic ducts?

A

collagen rich CT

27
Q

what is the fx of the collagen rich CT wrapped around the pancreatic ducts?

A

provide extra protection from possible leakage of digestive enzymes

28
Q

what is the largest gland in the body with endocrine and exocrine functions?

A

liver

29
Q

what are the 5 general functions of the liver?

A
  1. metabolism of lipids, carbs and proteins
  2. production of blood proteins, factors and non-essential vitamins
  3. detoxify blood
  4. produce hepatic bile
  5. store certain vitamins

33
Q

how does the bile flow through the liver lobule?

A

from hepatocytes toward bile duct bronchi in the portal triad

34
Q

what do the bile canaliculi do?

A

collect bile

35
Q

what is the arrangement of hepatocytes?
