Main Functional brain areas
|
Cerebrum
|
|
Cerebrum
|
Cerebral hemispheres seperated by fissure, outer surface gyrus with groves and sulci
|
|
cerbral cortex, outler layer of cerebrum-surface
|
gray matter, nerve cell ,
|
|
below surface
|
white matter, myelinated nerve fibers-white due to myleinationf ound on all nerve fibers. this myleination allows electrical signals to be carried by nerve fibers- no myelin, not able to carry a nerve impulse
|
|
nerve fibers and hemispheres
|
projection fibers connect the brain to the spinal cord, association fibers connect the gray areas
|
|
cerbral hemispheres, each hemisphere controls function for contralateral side
|
frontal lobe
parietal lobe temporal lobe occipital lobe |
|
frontal lobe
|
intellect, personality, motor cortex
|
|
temporal lobe
|
memory, hearing
|
|
parietal lobe
|
sensory cortex
|
|
occipital lobe
|
vision
|
|
How do kidneys regulate acid base balance
|
by differential secretion or reabsorption of H+ or HCO3-this takes days to kick in
|
|
two mechanisms by which kidney controls acid base
|
reabsorption of already filtered HCO3, acid prevention mechanisms
|
|
dealing with Ph
|
remember ph is based on H+,not necessarily HCO3- HCO3 combines with na to BUFFER acids, not to actually reduce ph because ph is a measurement of H+
|
|
A-cells
|
secrete to excrete a proton H+ and reabsorb HCO3- this actually happens more than B-cells, think about alkalinity of blood- more alkaline think about ph of blood 7.4
|
|
B-cells
|
secrete to excrete HCO3 and reabsorb H+
|
|
3 things that figures show
|
produce a new bicarb, trap a proton, prevent formation of an acid
|
|
neurons or nerve cells
|
excitable cells- can generate an action potential- have 2 obligatory requirements- glucose and oxygen
|
|
supporting cells
|
cannot generate action potential
|
|
supporting cells
|
astrocytes, microglia, ependymal, oligodnedrocytes, satellite cells, schwann cells
|
|
astorocytes
|
most abundant, anchors neurons and capillaries- makes sense because neurons must have capillaries to deliver oxygen and glucose,antigen presenting cells for immunity, controls chemical environment
