  3. Transit of foodstuffs through the GI system http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7xKYNz9AS0

  4. The wall of the GI tract has several layers

  5. Sphincters control the transit from one section of the GI tract to the next www.mydr.com.au

  6. Bile and pancreatic secretions are emptied at the same point in the duodenum www.memorialhermann.org

  7. The enteric nervous system regulates GI activity mikedaisey.com

  8. GI hormones also regulate GI activity 04340.com

  9. Gastroesophageal reflux is due to an insufficient closure of the lower esophageal sphincter www.webmd.com

  15. Several mediators induce acid secretion

  16. Peptic ulcers come from an imbalance between acid vs. mucus + HCO3 www.yourgicenter.com
