what happens with the Na/K pump?
3Na pumped out and 2 K pumped in
what happens to the charge?
more positive charge out side of cells
E1 state the binding sites for Na and K face the
intracellular fluid and has a high affinity for Na
The E2 state the binding sites for Na and K face the
extracellular fluid and has a high affinity for K
If transport occurs down an electrochemical gradient it is
passive and does not consume energy
If transprt occurs against an electrochemical gradient it is
active
primary active transport uses
ATP
Secondary active transport uses
energy from the Na gradient
depolarization
the process of making the membrane potential less negative
hyperpolarization
the process of making the membrane potential more negative
inward current
the flow of positive charge into the cell...inward currents depolarize the membrane potential.
outward current is
the flow of positive charge out of the cell...outward currents hyperpolarize the membrane potential
threshold potential is
the membrane potential at which occurrence of the action potential is inevitable.
overshoot
the portion of the action potential wihere the membrane potential is positive
undershoot
the portion of the action potential, following repolarization, where the membrane potential is actually more negative than it is at rest
refractory period
period during which another ormal action potential cannot be elicited in an excitable cell.
when an axon is myelinated, there is:
increased membrance resistance, dec membrane capacitance which result in increased conduction velocity
Reynolds number
used to predict whether or not blood flow will be laminar or turbulent.
If Reynlds number is <2000
it will be laminar
If Reynolds number is > 2000
likely to be turbulent > 3000 will definitely be turbulent
factors to inc reynolds number
dec in viscosity, narrowing of blood vessl
capacitance
compliance of blood vessels which describes the volume of the bloood the vessel can hold at a given pressure
What are most compliant and contain unstressed volume
veins
the effects of the autonomic nervous system on conduction velocity are called
dromotropic effects
stimulation of sympathetic nervous sys
inc conduction velocity (positive dromotropic effect)
what is the effect of myelination on conduction velocity and why
insulates, salutator conduction, nodes of raniver & makes signal faster
what ion is essetnail in the depolarization of skeletal muscle
Ca
what is the slowest conduction velocity of cardiac cycle
av node
Fastest conduction of cardiac cycle
purkinje fibers
what is renal response to hemorrhae?
inc renal perfusion pressure
tips of cochlear hair cells are embedded in the
apical membrane
hair cells are receptor cells for
hearing and equilibrium
changes in what ion are responsible for the depolarization/hyperpolarization of the auditory hair cells in auditory transduction
K
in CHF Sv is
dec
When discusisng cardicac action potentials one understands that
the size of the inward current during the upstroke of the action potential that determines the conduction velocity
what is the normal physiological response to hemorrhage?
dec in arterial pressure
what are the cardiovascular response to hemorrhae
inc hr, inc contractility inc TPR and constriction of veins
decompensated heart failure, pitting edema in bilat lower extremities=
starlings physiological forces, inc capillary hydrostatic pressure
Lisinopril stops the conversion of
angiotension I to angiotension II
carrier mediated transport
saturation, competition, stereospecifity
smooth and skeletal muscles are characterized by a
actin and myosin
what is a descriptive term that id's the type of neurotransmitter released by sympathetic postganglonic fibers
adrenergic
Which of the following is not supplied by the ANS
skeletal muscle...the ones that are supplied by ANS are cardicac, smooth and glands
all communication must pass through
thalamus
angiotension II is the
most potent of aldosterone & potent vasodilator
photoreceptors are located
in the retina: rods and cones
rods have low thresholds
are sensitive to low intenisty lige and function well in the darkness
cones have a higher threshold
operate best in daylight, higher visual acuity and color vision
Law of laplace
pressure tending to collapse an alveolus is directly proportional to the surface tension and inversely o alveolar radius
small alveoli
collapse more easily
mucosal layer faces
the lumen
serosal layer faces the
blood
circular and longitudinal muscles work
synergistically to perform motility for the GI tract
The GI tract has its own enteric nervous systen
(instrinsic) which works with the SNS / PNS (extrinsic)
The vagus and pelvic nerves innervate the
parasympathetic innervation of the tract
the vagus nerve innvervates th
upper GI tract
The pelic nerve innervatest he
lower GI stract
INtrinsic or enteric nervous system can
direct all function of the GI tract
The enteric nervous systme is located in
ganglia in the myenteric and sub mucosal plexus and controls the contractile, secretory and endocrine function of the GI tract
SNS and PNS also receive sensory info from
mechanoreceptors and chemo receptors
hormones are
peptides released from endocrine cells of the GI tract
Hormones are secreted into the
portal circulatin, pass through the liver and enter the systemic circulatio
for gi peptides are classified as hormones
gastrin, cholecystokinin *CCK) secretin and glucose dependent insulinotropic peptide or GIP
paracrines are like hormones because
they are secreted by endocrine cells of GI tract, but paracrines act locally within the same tissues that secrete them
What is the site of secretion for gastrin?
G cells of the stomach
What is the site of secretion fro CCK
I cells of the duodenum and jejunum
What is the site of secretion for secretin
S cells of the duodenum
What is the site of secretion for GIP
duodenm and jeunum
What are the actions of Gastrin?
Inc gastric H secretion. Stimulates growth of gastric mucosa
Actions of CCK
inc pancreatic enzyme secretion. Inc pancreatic HCO3 secretion. Stimulates contraction of the gallbladder and relaxation of the sphincter of Oddi. Inhibits gastric emptying
Actions of Secretin
Inc pancreatc HCO3 secretion. Inc biliary HCO3 secretion. Dec Gastric H secretion. Inhibits trophic effect of gastrin on gastric mucosa.
GIP actions
Inc insulin secretion from pancreatic Beta cells. Dec gastric H secretion
The smooth muscle of the GI tract is
unitary smooth muschle in which the cells are electrically coupled via low resistance pathways callled gap junction
Phasic contractions are
periodic contractions followed by relation
Frequency of slow waves
3 to 12 slow waves per min
where do slow waves originate?
interstitial cells of Cajal, abundant in the myenteric plexus
What are the three functions of chewing
1. mixes food with saliva, lubricating it to faciltate swallowing
2. reduces the size of food particles which facilitates swallowing
