fick's law of diffusion
F = A*(deltaC/x)*D
F is flux
A is surface area
deltaC is difference in concentration
x is distance needed to be diffused
D is diffusion factor
Sodium / Potassium. Where are they concentrated?
Sodium is concentrated on the outside of a cell, potassium is concentrated on the inside of the cell.
how is charge separation created in animal cells?
atpase pumps on outside of cells
pull in 2 K+ ions and pushes out 3 Na+ ions, making net charge at cost of 1 atp
how to get sugar into a cell?
take Na+ from outside of cell and cotranport with sugar cell
where does Na+ come from for stomach to use with sugar?
It leaks out of the tight junction
stimulus -> get info directly from the signaling energy
ionotropic transduction
how does hearing work?
sound waves bend cilia, allows K+ to come in, action potential created which lets in Ca++, lets out neurotransmitter and sends info to neuron
stimulus -> cascading and increasing info from signaling energy
ex: moth pheromones
metabotropic processes
vision is also an example of this
metabotropic processes examples
moth pheromone sensing
vision
Labeled Line
specific sensory cells routed to specific receptors; able to keep pain and taste, for example, separate.
what starts an action potential in muscles?
acetocholine being transferred from a neuron to the muscle, releases Ca++ from sarcoplastic reticulum through t-tubes
how does t-tubules effect Sarcoplastic reticulum?
ryanodine receptor is signaled by the DHP protein to release Ca++
