- When William H. was helping victims after a devastating earthquake in a region not prepared to swiftly set up adequate temporary shelter, he developed severe diarrhea. He was diagnosed as having cholera, a disease transmitted through unsanitary water supplies contaminated by fecal material from infected indiv iduals. The toxin produced by cholera bacteria causes Cl- channels in the lurninal membranes of the intestinal cells to stay open, thereby increasing the secretion of Cl- from the cells into the intestinal tract lumen. By what mechanisms would Na+ and water be secreted into the lumen in conjunction with Cl- secretion? How does this secretory response account for the severe diarrhea that is characteristic of cholera?arrow_forwardSelect the best answer or answers from the choices given: A pancreas cell makes proteins (enzymes) that it releases to the small intestine. Which of the following best describes the path of these proteins from synthesis to exocytosis at the pancreatic cell’s plasma membrane (PM)? (a) Golgi S rough ER S PM, (b) smooth ER S Golgi S lysosome S PM, (c) rough ER S Golgi S PM, (d) nucleus S Golgi S PM.arrow_forwardTight junctions are protein junctions that provide a water-tight seal between cells. They ensure that materials must enter the cells (through diffusion or active transport) to pass through the tissue. Tight junctions are characteristic of cells lining the digestive tract, where materials are required to pass through cells (not between them) before they can travel into the blood. Can someone explain more clearly why lining the digestive tract?arrow_forward
