colon
|

1) internal sphincter is smooth muscle (invoulntary) the external sphincter is made of skeletal (voulantary)
|

what is the PH of the HCL within the stomach
|
2.0
|
|
within the duodenum what does the bruners gland do
|
releases alkaline substances to raise the ph up to 7
|
|

|
emulsifies fats
|
|
lipase acts on lipids to form what
|
fatty acids and glycerol
|
|
pepsin acts on proteins to create what
|
amino acids
|
|
what is attatched to the cecum
|
apendix
|
|
what are the 4 parts of the colon( large intestine)
|
acending colon, transverse, decending, sigmoid colon
|
|
what bacteria is used in the colon and what does it do
|
E. Coli- breaks down lactose
|
|
what is the respiartory membane
|
simple squamous epithealium, thin so gases can pass thru by difusion (no energy)
|
|
why is air entering thru the nasal cavities mor efficient that thru the mouth
|
warms the air and filters it
|
|
what is the route of air entering the body:
|
Nose(nares) / mouth, phayrnx, larynx, trachea, primary bronchus, secondary bronchus, tertiary bronchus, to terminal bronchiole, and then the alveoli.
|
|
how does o2 get to the blood and what does it do when there
|
difuses thru respiratory membrane, into the blood and binds to the hemoglobin.
|
|
where does blood go once it leaves the lungs
|
to the heart then thru the arteries then to the capilary beds where gas exchange occures again this time o2 difuses from blood to tissues
|
|
when CO2 difuses out of the tissue it combines with what and creates what
|
co2 combines wiht h2o and forms carbonic acid , then assisted by carbonic anhydrase and breaks down into bicarbonate ions and hydrogen ions.
|
|
once bicarbonate and hydrogen levels get high enough in RBC what occurrs
|
thru chlolirde shift , the bicarbonate (hco3-) is exchanged inthe RBC for CL- (chloride), this is brought to the lungs and the roles reversed!
|
|
what happens when the diaphram is relaxed
|
exhalation, less volume in the lung, higher PSI
|
|
what happens when the diaphram is contracted
|
inhaliation, more volume in the lung decrease in PSI
|
|
alkilatory respirosis casues what.
|
rapid breathing, decrease in CO2, increase in PH
|
|
respiratory acidosis causes what
|
asphxiation, decrease in PH and increase in CO2
|
|
What is ERV
|
expiratory reserve volume : amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled after normal tidal volume exhaliation (1200 Ml)
|
|
what is TV
|
Tidal Volume: amount of air inhaled or exhaled with each breath under resting conditions (500 ml)
|
|
what is VC
|
Vital capacity: Max amount of air that can be ehxaled after Max inspiration (4800 ml)
VC=TV+IRV+ERV |
|
what happens if change in radius of the air way
|
VC(vital capacity ) decreases, along with FEV (forced expiratory volume)
|
|

|
Bronchitis, Asthma
|
|
what is decreased in copd/ and smokers
|

|
|

|
|
what happens in rebreathing (breathing in a bag)
|
decrease in O2, co2 increases, Decrease in PH (acidosis)
