|
What is the function of ADH hormone in the body
|
Release of ADH hormone stimulates the collecting duct in the nephron to become more permeable to WATER promoting reabsorption by capillaries into the bloodstream.
|
|
When you lack a large amount of ADH what happens?
|
Lots of dilute Urine may be Diabeties Insipidus
|
|
Describe the characteristics and explain how Urine is transported in the body.
|
Travels down the muscular tubes of the ureters lined of epithelial and connective tissue coat(Thick)
Urine is moved by gravitiy and perstalsis. |
|
When the bladder is empty it is ___ and when full it is ____
|
below the pubic joint and full may extend to abdominal cavity
|
|
The special lining of the Bladder is__ which consists of ____
|
transitional epithelium, rugae folds
|
|
the urethra in males is ___ and in females is ___
|
20,4
|
|
Micuration is
|
the process of expelling (voiding) urine from the bladder
|
|
Sodium (na+)
|
the main extra cellular ion
|
|
Potassium
|
main intracellular ion
|
|
cytosis
|
inflammation of the bladder
|
|
what is external exchange
|
when air is breathed through the lungs exchanged with the alveoli sacs where fresh o2 is exchanged at the blood and c02 diffuses out of blood to be eliminated
|
|
internal gas exchange
|
o2 is exchanged at the tissue level 02 diffuses from the blood to the cells and c02 passes from the cells into the blood.
|
|
Nasal cavities Functions 2
|
filters foreign bodies (hair and mucous)
air is warmed and moistened by blood vascularize mucous membranes lining the nasal cavity |
|
what is the pharynx and the three parts
|
a pharynx is the throat which carries air to respiratory tract and food to digestive system, nasophayrynx, oropharynx, laryngeal pharynx
|
|
The larynx
|
the voice box which is located between the pharynx and trachea
made of cartilage, vocal folds used for speach |
|
Glottis
|
space between the vocal cords, open during breathing, closed during eating
|
|
eppiglottis
|
as the larynx moves up during swallowing the epiglottis moves downward covering the opening into the larynx
|
|
the trachea (wind pipe)
|
conducts air between layrnx and lungs
frame work of seperate cartilages keeps the trachea open |
|
the bronchi
|
the trachea divides into two primary bronchi that enter the lungs
|
|
what type of cell lines most of the upper respiratory tract
|
pseudostratified ciliated columbar
|
|
mediastinum
|
the space between the lungs
contains the heart vessels, esophagus, trachea, and lymph nodes |
|
Lobes in the lungs
|
3 on the right, 2 on the left
|
|
bronchioles 2 facts type of muscle and control
|
smooth muscle only no cartilage, under autonomic control
|
|
alveoli
|
at the end of the termina bronchioles, clusters of tiny air sacs, single layer of squamous epithelium make up walls of each alveolus,
|
|
septal cells
|
scatter amost the squamous epitheliul cells of alveoli, produce surfactnt keeps them open prevents collapsing
|
|
trace the steps of the diaphram movement during inhallation and exhalation
|
inhallation diaphragm contracts down on abdomen, exhalation relaxes and goes up
|
|
parietal pluera
|
attatched to the chest walls
|
|
visceral pleura
|
attatched to the surface of the lung inside
|
|
plueral space
|
contains a thin film of lubricating fluid.
|
|
pulmonary ventilation
|
movement of air into and out of the lungs 2 phases inhallation- air is drawn into the lungs (active process) Exhallation - expulsion of air from the lungs (passive process)
|
|
exchange of gases
|
external exchange between alveoli and the blood, internal exchange movement of gasses btween the bloode and the tissues.
