Question 1 Answer saved Marked out of 20.00 Follow the glucose molecule and identify the structures it passes on its journey by filling in the blanks with one of the word options listed below: A glucose molecule enters the mouth and immediately runs into this type of epithelium: STRATIFIED SQUAMOUS |__As you swallow, it moves down the ESOPHAGUS and into the stomach. In the stomach, it will be mixed with a variety of substances by way of mechanical digestion, which is supported by the actions of all THREE (hint:is a number) muscular layers of this organ, including the OBLIQUE _layer, which is not found in other parts of the digestive system. Our glucose molecule will eventually pass through the PYLORIC SPHINCTER Land into the small intestine where it will be absorbed by the MICROVILLI lining its walls. These special structures substantially increase the small intestine's surface area and are highly vascular, making it extremely good at absorption of nutrients. Once across this specialized wall glucose enters the SUPERIOR MESENTERIC VEIN which collects blood from local capillaries of the small intestine. From here, the glucose molecule travels through a blood vessel called the HEPATIC PORTAL VEIN Land into the LIVER where it can be stored until needed. If the body becomes active at some point, this glucose will be released into a blood vessel called the HEPATIC VEIN Lin order to enter into general circulation. To get to a working muscle in order to provide needed energy, glucose will need to first go through the heart and lungs. This pathway will include: The INFERIOR vena cava which will deliver blood, and our glucose molecule, to the right atria then through the right AV valve with its THREE (a number) cusps and into the right ventricle. From here it gets pumped through the PULMONARY valve, into the PULMONARY TRUNK and on to one of the ARTERIES going to the lungs. Once the blood is oxygenated at the lungs it will return to the heart, along with our glucose, eventually finding its way through the left AV valve with its TWO (a number) cusps and into the left ventricle. In here it might even run into some funny "strings" called CHORDAE TENDINEAE 1. With a forceful contraction, the heart will pump the glucose and blood out through the AORTIC valve and into the largest of our arteries, the AORTA | The rest of the vascular path that our little glucose molecule will take will all include epithelium called ENDOTHELIUM Choose one of the following words to fill in each blank to make the statement correct. Click on the word you want to use, then drag it up to the appropriate blank spot and drop it in. Note that words in this list might be used more than once AND that not all of the word options in this list will be used.
