4 classes of muscle fibers
fast fibers, slowfibers, oxidative fibers, glycolytic fibers

Sliding Filament Model
•Troponin binds to tropomyosin
•Tropomyosin shrinks and exposes actin sites for binding myosin
•Myosin head binds to actin
•Crossbridge forms; powerstroke; contraction
•ADP released from myosin
•ATP fits into its place; ATP ADP. stores energy in the myosin molecule
•Actin and myosin fall apart/dissasociate
•relaxation
What causes muscle contraction outside the cell?
•Brain commands motor neuron
•Motor neuron releases acetylcholine at NMJ
•Acetylcholine opens channels and depolarizes the muscle cell
•Threshold – Action potential in muscle cell
•Calcium released from the Sarcoplasmic Reticulum
•Calcium binds Troponin
•Troponin binds Tropomyosin
•Tropomyosin shrinks and exposes actin sites for binding myosin
Muscle Organization
sarcomeres–> myofibrils–> myofibers–> fascicles –> muscle
Glycogen

–storage form of glucose


‒ located in the Liver & muscle

Maintain Blood Glucose
1)Glycogenolysis 2)Gluconeogenesis 3)Glucose Sparing
Glycogenolysis
break down glycogen into glucose molecules(occurs in liver) (12–18 hrs)
Gluconeogenesis
makes new glucose molecules (liver)
Glucose Sparing

•Liver makes “ketones”


– cells go on a glucose diet


-saves glucose for brain

Insulin

Regulates when blood glucose gets too high


•Facilitates glucose uptake


•Inhibits glycogenolysis


•Inhibits gluconeogenesis

Glucagon

Regulates when blood glucose gets too low


•Causes glycogenolysis


•Increases blood glucose levels

Components of Blood

1. Plasma(makes up 38–65% of blood volume)
2. Cells

Leukocytes
white blood cells, fight infecton
Erythrocytes
red blood cells
–carry oxygen
–anucleate: does not have a nucleus(allows bend)
–contains hemoglobin( made of 4 smaller iron core proteins)
Platelets or thrombocytes
–repair blood vessels
•Cell Fragments
•Agglutinate to form clots
•Release fibrin
3 types of closed circulatory system
1.Single circulation
2.Double circulation
3.Combination
Double circulation
–Crocodiles, birds, man
–2 circuits(Pulmonary & Systemic)
–2 pumps
•1 Heart(2 Atria,2 Ventricle)
•Segregation of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood
•Right and left synchronize beat
Heart
–has 2 or 4 chambers
–Atrim
–Ventricle
Blood vessels
arteries– take blood away from heart
veins–carry blood back to heart
capillaries– site of exchange with tissues
cardiac cycle
contraction and relaxation events for one heartbeat(diastolic & systolic)
A–V valves
separate atrium from ventricle (doors in heart)
semilunar valves
regulate blood flow from ventricle out of the heart
sinoatrial node/ atrioventricular node
specialized myocytes that regulate heartbeat/heart rate
right side
deoxygenated blood flows to lungs
(1.Right atrium 2.AV valve 3.Right ventricle 4.Pulmonary semilunar valve 5.lungs)
left side
oxygenated blood flows to tissue
(1.Lungs 2.Left atrium 3.AV valve 4.Left Ventricle 5.Aortic semi–lunar valve 6.aorta 7.tissue)
cardiac conduction system
–initiates cardiac contraction
–synchronizes contraction(atrium contracts first, ventricle second)
diastolic
–filling phase(blood enters atrium)
–AV valve open(fills ventricle)
–SL valve closed
–low pressure in ventricle
–atrium contracts to squeeze out rest of blood
systolic
–when ventricles pump
–AV valve closed(prevents back flow)
–SL valve open
–high pressure in ventricle
Blood Pressure
–decreases the farther away from the heart
–essentially zero in veins
Resistance
–determines blood pressure(done in arterioles) 1.Vessel radius(small radius has a high pressure–dilation decreases pressure–constriction increases presseur)
2.Vessel length(–distance from the heart–greater distance, greater resistance, greater pressure) 3.Blood viscosity(increase concentration of red blood cells, increase pressure)
Stroke Volume
volume of blood pumped out of the heart each time the ventricle contracts
Cardiac Output

–blood volume pumped out of the heart every minute(L/min)


–Cardiac output = stroke volume x heart rate

Total Peripheral Resistance (TPR)
Sum of resistance in all the capillaries and arterioles
Blood pressure regulation

Blood pressure = Cardiac output x TPR


–Cardiac output increases (due to increased heart rate) but the TPR decreases( due to vasodilation) to maintain a stable blood pressure

3 ways to regulate Blood Pressure

1.Change resistance (dilate/constrict)


2.Change heart rate


3. Change stroke voume

Regulating the cardiovascular system

•Baroreceptor (pressure receptor) •Brain(integrator)


•Arterioles,Heart rate,Stroke volume(effectors) •110 mm Hg(set point)

Altitude's effect on oxygen concentration

oxygen concentration doesn't change based on elevation pressure changes with altitude.


-more oxygen available closer to sea level

Temperature's effect on oxygen concentration
oxygen content of hot water is less than the oxygen content of cold water
Other solutes effect on oxygen concentration
saltier water has less oxygen
hemoglobin Saturation

amount of hemoglobin a blood vessel carries( ex. 2/4 oxygen is 50% saturation)

Hemoglobin affinity
oxygen binding, ability of hemoglobin to hold onto oxygen
What affects Hemoglobin saturation
pH, temperature, partial pressure of oxygen
PO2
higher at lungs, higher hemoglobin saturation
Temp/ pH increase

Increase temperature, pH more acidic


= Lower Affinity for O2

Temp/ pH decrease

pH more basic, Decrease temperature =Higher Affinity for O2

gill arch
main rod
filament
branch off from gill arch. made of lamellae
lamellae
small thin plates of tissue, rich in capillary beds that make up filament
How do gills extract oxygen?

oxygen rich water flows over lamellae. oxygen diffuses from water into blood in filaments -blood and water flow in opposite directions of each other ( counter current exchange)

Buccal pumping
fish swallows water and uses jaw muscles to push water over gills
Ram venilation
while swimming the fish rams through water which pushes water over gills
positive pressure filling
as organism inhales the air flowing in is under positive pressure, air is forced in
Negative Pressure filling
a vacuum is created in lungs which causes air to flow in during inhale (diaphragm drops and pulls lungs down creating negative pressure which sucks air in)
tidal ventilation

air goes in and air goes out


1 cycle of tidal ventilation= 1 inspiration and 1 expiration

tidal volume
the amount of air moved in 1 cycle of tidal ventilation
Neural control of respiration

-rate and depth of respiration occurs in brain stem


-intercostal nerve controls intercostal muscle


-phrenic nerve controls diaphragm

Inflation reflex
receptors in lungs detect how full lungs and turn off inhalation when there is enough air in lungs
Chemical control of respiration

Chemoreceptors in body detect levels of CO2, O2, and pH


-respiration is more sensitive to CO2 than O2

Components of Inflation Reflex

•stretch receptors in lungs(sensor)


•respiratory centers in brain(integrator)


•diaphragm, intercostals(effectors)


•Amount of stretch at lungs(set point)

Negative feedback of Chemical control

•O2, CO2 H+ receptors in aorta, carotid, brain (sensor)


•Other respiratory centers(integrator)


•diaphragm, intercostals (effectors)


•Amount of O2, CO2 H+ in blood(set point

Bicarbonate

-used to transport ~65% of CO2 through the body


CO2 + H2O H2CO3 H+ + HCO3-


-Catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase in red blood cell


-reaction reverses in lungs to exhale CO2
