1: After a hard day at work, Frank sits down at the table to eat dinner. As he smells the food he can feel his stomach start to growl.

Question 1: Explain the structure of the gastric pits in the stomach and what each different cell secretes, and the action of those secretions.

Question 2: Explain the three phases of gastric secretion control, be sure to explain the how the different hormones affect secretion.

Question 3: Explain how gastric emptying is controlled, be sure to explain how is both promoted and inhibited depending the components of chyme, actions of the stomach and small intestine, and which specific hormones are secreted. After finishing his large meal, Frank sits on the couch and relaxes. As he is sitting there he can hear his digestive tract gurgling.

Question 4: Identify all the different types of motility in the digestive tract and their functions. Be sure to classify those actions that are moving and mixing.

Tyler is 22 years old and wants to be a bodybuilder. He works hard during the week at his job so he goes out to party every Friday and Saturday night in which he drinks a lot of alcohol. Recently, Tyler has checked his weight and saw that his fat mass has increased. He doesn’t understand why this is the case when he tracks his carbs, protein, and fat every day. He tracks his calories every day except when he is partying because he drinks low calorie beers. He has now come to you seeking advice on what could be going on and what are some alternatives he can do to start losing fat mass while still partying and drinking alcohol.
