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++
