Chapter 25, Problem 2CT
Summary Introduction
To review:
The six sphincters from the oral cavity to the anus that control the movement of materials via the digestive tract. Also, the sphincter, over which an individual has conscious and voluntary control.
Introduction:
The sphincters are the valves formed by the thickening of the portions of the circular muscular layers. There are various sphincters that are present in the digestive tract. They constrict to ensure that only one-way passage of materials occurs along the lumen.

in studying digestion (specifically the duodenum and pancreas) What is the difference between the sphincter of odii, ampula of vater, duodenal papilla and hepatopancreatic sphincter?
How does limited stomach volume affect weight loss?
The gall bladder secretes bile, which emulsifies fats, and the pancreas secretes digestive enzymes, both into the duodenum. Moreover, the duodenum is the primary site of dietary iron uptake. How might the reconnection of the duodenum aid in digestion? Why iron anemia can become a problem after gastric bypass?
