Components
(generated)
Component items:
- Stomach sensory data (stomach-sensory-data)
- Stomach - stomach nutrition sensor (stomach-nutrition-sensor -> LPC.PN.SG.LDRG): sense independently to tongue and oral taste receptors glucose, carbohydrates proteins, and fats
- Stomach gastrointestinal tract (stomach-gastrointestinal-tract)
- Stomach - outer longitudinal and inner circular smooth muscles (LAC.PN.PSYM.PPG -> stomach-wall): acetylcholine activates muscarinic receptors on smooth muscles - increasing motility of the stomach
- Stomach - mucosal gastric glands (LAC.PN.PSYM.GUT -> stomach-mucosal-gastric-glands): acetylcholine activates muscarinic receptors cause an increase in gastric juice secretion
- Stomach - enzyme glands (stomach -> LPC.PN.SG.NOD): secretes protein-digesting enzymes called proteases and strong acids to aid in food digestion; digestion; nutrition sensor; some absorption
- Stomach - small intestine (small-intestine -> LPC.PN.SG.NOD): where most chemical digestion takes place; food from stomach is allowed into duodenum through pylorus by pyloric sphincter; absorb nutrients from ingested food
- Stomach - duodentum (duodentum -> LPC.PN.SG.NOD): food intake regulation, via glucoreception in taste receptors
- Stomach - colon (colon -> LPC.PN.SG.NOD): extracts water and salt from solid wastes; storing waste
- Stomach extractors (stomach-extractors)
- Stomach - spleen (spleen -> LPC.PN.SG.NOD): red pulp - blood filter, removes old red blood cells, holds a reserve of blood, recycles iron; white pulp - synthesizes antibodies in its white pulp and removes antibody-coated bacteria and antibody-coated blood cells by way of blood and lymph node circulation
- Stomach - kidney (kidney -> LPC.PN.SG.NOD): regulating acid-base balance, electrolyte concentrations, extracellular fluid volume, blood pressure, filter to urine
