Ventricular systole
|
|
Regulation in blood pressure
|
A decrease in bl. vol. leads the nephron JG cells to release renin, which converts to angiotensiogen- to angiotensin1, then changed to angiotensin2 in lung which stim the adrenal cotrex to release aldosterone

Synthesis reaction
|
A+B=AB, Occurs when 2 or more atoms or molecules combine to form a larger mor e complex molecule (Growth)
|
|
Decomposition Reactions
|
AB= A+B, opposite of synthesis react. Molecules are broken down into a simplier form

|
ATP Function
|
Provides a form of chem. energy, used by all body cells, modified nucleotide, energy released as glucose catabolized, captured & store
|
|
ATP Cycle
|
ATP-->ADP+p+E Bonds rupture by hydrolysis, energy and phosphate is released.
