Sholpan [36]2 years ago

The small intestine produces cholecystokinin, which stops the stomach from secreting gastric juices. The statement that follows is true.

Discussion about Cholecystokinin-

  • A peptide transmitter called cholecystokinin(CCK) is released into the blood after a meal and is largely made by enteroendocrine cells in the proximal small intestine. Circulating CCK stimulates pancreatic secretion and gallbladder contraction, controls stomach emptying and bowel movement, and promotes satiety via binding to particular cholecystokinin-1(CCK-1) receptors mostly on pancreas, stomach smooth muscle, and peripheral nerves.
  • The coordination of nutritional intake, digestion, and absorption is achieved via these effects. The main dietary components that increase cholecystokinin(CCK )release are ingested fat and protein.
  • CCK was first discovered to be a 33-amino-acid polypeptide. Yet, bigger and smaller versions of CCK were found in the brain, gut, and blood from its very discovery. A preprohormone undergoes posttranslational synthesis to yield all variants of CCK from a particular gene.

How do schema, assimilation, and accommodation work together to help kids understand their world?
gulaghasi [49]

Schema, assimilation and accommodation

Explanation

Schema, assimilation and accommodation are three important concepts in Piaget’s cognitive development which the kids adapt to learn and understand their world.

Schema is the mental or cognitive idea, concept or framework which organizes and interprets information. Schema is built continuously during cognitive development of children through the interweaving of the adaptation processes of assimilation and accommodation.  

Assimilation helps a kid to take new information and add it to the existing schema or old information about the same concept. For ex., identifying a four-legged animal as a cow by a kid is assimilation of a new information.

Accommodation helps a kid to analyze and modify the new or old schema or information based on what is learnt or experienced. For ex., Identifying that all four-legged animals are not cow and they can be a horse or bullock also depending upon the difference in their structure is the accommodation made by the kid on top of existing schema of four-legged animals.
