The digestive system is made up of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract—also called the digestive tract—and the liver, pancreas,
and gallbladder. The GI tract is a series
of hollow organs joined in a long, twisting tube from the mouth to the anus. The hollow organs that make up the GI tract
are the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine—which includes the rectum—and anus. Food enters the mouth and passes to the anus through the hollow organs of the GI tract. The liver, pancreas, and gallbladder are the solid organs of the digestive system. The digestive system helps the body digest food.
Bacteria in the GI tract, also called gut flora or microbiome, help with digestion. Parts of the nervous and circulatory systems also play roles in the digestive process. Together, a combination of nerves, hormones, bacteria, blood, and the organs of the digestive system completes the complex task of digesting
the foods and liquids a person consumes each day.
1.) C - peptic ulcer. Peptic ulcers are sores that develop in the lining of the stomach, lower esophagus, or small intestine. GERD is a digestive disorder; Gingivitis is an inflammation of the gums; Gastritis is an inflammation of the lining of the stomach.
2.) D - bladder cancer. Smokers are 4 to 7 times more likely to develop bladder cancer than nonsmokers. Alcohol and smoking do not directly cause kidney stones so I guess kidney stones is out of the choices.
3.) C - pharmacological treatment Pharmacotherapy is a general term for using medication to treat disease and reduce or cure illness.
4.) A - A hormone is like an e-mail with instructions from someone’s boss. Hormones are chemicals that coordinate several functions in the body. Hormones are chemical substances that act like messenger molecules in the body.
5.) B - protein. A diet rich in proteins such as eggs, cheese, and whole-wheat products produces urine with an alkaline pH that may result in increased urea production.
6.) B - Fluid levels could not be maintained.
7.) A - oranges. Oranges and broccoli both have high fiber and helps ease constipation. So I'm not really sure which is which.
8.) C - The thyroid is a gland and secretes the hormone. The thyroid gland is part of the endocrine system and lies in front of one's neck and below the Adam's apple.
9.) D- Nephrons restore the substances and water the body needs. Nephrons main functions include regulating the concentration of sodium salts and water by filtering the kidney’s blood, excreting any excess in the urine and reabsorbing the necessary amounts. Nephron return essential substances such as glucose, amino acids, water, and salt to thecapillaries that surround the nephron.
10.) B - kidney stones
