'''Component items''':
* '''Stomach sensory data''' ('''stomach-sensory-data''')
** Stomach - stomach nutrition sensor (stomach-nutrition-sensor -> [[BrainRegionLPC_PN_SG_LDRG|LPC.PN.SG.LDRG]]): sense independently to tongue and oral taste receptors glucose, carbohydrates proteins, and fats
* '''Stomach gastrointestinal tract''' ('''stomach-gastrointestinal-tract''')
** [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscularis_mucosae Stomach - outer longitudinal and inner circular smooth muscles] ([[BrainRegionLAC_PN_PSYM_PPG|LAC.PN.PSYM.PPG]] -> [[HumanMusclesTorso|stomach-wall]]): acetylcholine activates muscarinic receptors on smooth muscles - increasing motility of the stomach
** [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intestinal_gland Stomach - mucosal gastric glands] ([[BrainRegionLAC_PN_PSYM_GUT|LAC.PN.PSYM.GUT]] -> [[HumanMusclesTorso|stomach-mucosal-gastric-glands]]): acetylcholine activates muscarinic receptors cause an increase in gastric juice secretion
** Stomach - enzyme glands (stomach -> [[BrainRegionLPC_PN_SG_NOD|LPC.PN.SG.NOD]]): secretes protein-digesting enzymes called proteases and strong acids to aid in food digestion; digestion; nutrition sensor; some absorption
** Stomach - small intestine (small-intestine -> [[BrainRegionLPC_PN_SG_NOD|LPC.PN.SG.NOD]]): where most chemical digestion takes place; food from stomach is allowed into duodenum through pylorus by pyloric sphincter; absorb nutrients from ingested food
** Stomach - duodentum (duodentum -> [[BrainRegionLPC_PN_SG_NOD|LPC.PN.SG.NOD]]): food intake regulation, via glucoreception in taste receptors
** Stomach - colon (colon -> [[BrainRegionLPC_PN_SG_NOD|LPC.PN.SG.NOD]]): extracts water and salt from solid wastes; storing waste
* '''Stomach extractors''' ('''stomach-extractors''')
** Stomach - spleen (spleen -> [[BrainRegionLPC_PN_SG_NOD|LPC.PN.SG.NOD]]): red pulp - blood filter, removes old red blood cells, holds a reserve of blood, recycles iron; white pulp - synthesizes antibodies in its white pulp and removes antibody-coated bacteria and antibody-coated blood cells by way of blood and lymph node circulation
** Stomach - kidney (kidney -> [[BrainRegionLPC_PN_SG_NOD|LPC.PN.SG.NOD]]): regulating acid-base balance, electrolyte concentrations, extracellular fluid volume, blood pressure, filter to urine
