    1. 26 Jan. 2010 Digestion_Reg.ppt 1 Regulation of Digestion

    2. 26 Jan. 2010 Digestion_Reg.ppt 2 Chemical Digestion Depends on enzymes (hydrolytic) Enzyme activity depends on Presence of substrate Concentration of substrate Concentration of enzyme Temperature pH Pepsin @ pH = 2.0 Trypsin @ pH = 7.2

    3. 26 Jan. 2010 Digestion_Reg.ppt 3 Chemical Digestion Enzymes secreted only when appropriate substrates are present in stomach/duodenum. Digestion takes time Necessary to regulate movement of chyme Controls concentrations of substrates and enzymes Controls pH Pyloric sphincter is key control point.

    4. 26 Jan. 2010 Digestion_Reg.ppt 4 Long & Short Reflexes Stimuli Sight, smell, taste, thought of food Stretch of mucosa Chemical changes in lumen Long reflexes through CNS Short reflexes by enteric nerve plexus
