  • Front
  • Back

Proximal/distal

along a limb (towards or away)

Rostral/caudal

toward head or butt

Example of loose connective tissue

adipose

Types of connective tissue

loose and dense

Types of proper dense connective tissue

white fibrous (tendons) and yellow (lungs)

Types of supportive dense connective tissue

cartilage (yellow and fibrous) and bone

Example of yellow and fibrous cartilage

fibrous: between knee or vertebrae


yellow: nose, ear, epiglottis

Synovial (diarthrodial) joint

high mobility (knee or jaw)

Cartilaginous (amphiarthrodial) joint

limited mobility (between vertebrae)

Fibrous (synarthrodial) joint

almost no mobility (joining pieces of the skull)

Agonist, antagonist, synergist

1. moves structure


2. resists movement


3. stabilizes or optimizes movement

1. ectoderm


2. endoderm


3. mesoderm

1. nervous system, mucous membrane, and skin


2. digestive track and lungs


3.bones, muscles,connective tissues, and blood vessels

Teratogen

chemical or environmental factors that cause birth defects

IV:


V: opens and closes vocal folds

What forms during weeks 8-9 and 9-10 in pregnancy?

Hard palate then soft palate (when do they form?)

When does myelination of the spinal cord occur?

2nd trimester (what forms in this period?)

Where is the AP triggered?

axon hillock

3 types of neurons

unipolar, bipolar, multipolar

3 types of glial cells

astrocytes, myelin, microglia

What do astrocytes do?

physical/nutritional support, produce glialtransmitters

What do myelin do?

sheathing and insulation (oligodendrocytes and schwann cells)

What do microglia do?

ingests and destroys foreign material (garbage men of brain)

Afferent vs. Efferent

towards brain vs. away from brain

Excitatory vs. inhibitory

Increase probability of AP/voltage in cell vs. decrease probability of AP/voltage in cell

What does a Na+ pump do?

Maintain negative polarity in cell

Intercellular potential


Critical threshold


Highest voltage

-70mV, (-55)-(-50)mV, +30mV

3 stages of AP

depolarization, repolarization, hyperpolarization

Absolute and relative refractory period

impossible to trigger another AP, very difficult to trigger another AP

Saltatory conduction

increases speed of propagation of AP down axon

3 stages of neurochemical communication

presynapse, synapse, postsynapse

How are AP kept at rest?

they are voltage gated

Smallest functional unit of a muscle

sarcomere

Gray vs. white matter

brain vs. axons wrapped in sheathing

grouping of cells inside and outside the cortex

nuclei and ganglium

4 brain lobes and what separates them

frontal


parietal ^ separated by central sulcus


occipital


temporal (lateral sulcus)

Association fibers

within hemisphere communication


Ex: arcuate fasciculus - connects broca's area to werenicke's area

Commissural fibers

between hemisphere communication


Ex: corpus callosum

Projection fibers

between distinct area communication


Ex: corona radiata and internal capsule

3 types of corticospinal tracts

ipsilateral (same side)


contralateral (opposite side)


bilateral (both sides)

Dorsal horn vs. ventral horn

receives information vs. sends information

Roles of 4 lobes

F: motor control, judgement, problem solving


P: primary sensory area


O: helps process visual information
