3 steps of producing ATP from glucose
-glycolysis
-citric acid/krebs cycle
-oxidative phosphorylation
glycolysis
1 glucose
--> 2 pyruvate
--> 2 ATP
--> 2 NADH
Citric Acid Cycle
1 Pyruvate --> 1 Acetyl CoA
1 Acetyl Coa
--> 1 NADH
--> 1 CO2
(in cycle:)
--> 2 CO2
--> 1 ATP
--> 3 NADH
--> 1 FADH2
Electron Transport Chain
2.5 ATP/NADH
1.5 ATP/FADH2
Ends with Oxygen forming H2O
Total ATP from metabolism
Glycolysis: 2 ATP, 2 NADH
Citric Acid: 8 NADH, 2 FADH2, 2 ATP
Electron: 10 NADH x 2.5 = 25,
2 FADH2 x 1.5 = 3
2 ATP + 2 ATP + 25 +3 = *32 ATP*
Beta Oxidation
-Fats are converted to Acetyl Coa and enter Krebs Cycle
-occurs in mitochondria
Simple diffusion
travels through membrane or through pores
Facilitated diffusion
carrier-mediated
hypertonic
leads to crenation (water sucked out)
hypotonic
causes lysis
Primary active transport
requires direct use of ATP
Secondary active transport
driven by an ion concentration gradient by a primary active transport system.
Nernst Equation
64 log ([K]b / [K]a)
Calculation of Total Membrane Potential (Vm)
Vm = [(Ek)(gk) + (Ena)(Gna)]/ [gk + gna)
E = equilibrium constant
g = conductance
Resting Membrane Potential in cell
outside: 142 mM Na, 4 mM K
Inside: 12 mM Na, 140 mM K
saltatory conduction
movement of an action potential down a myelinated neuron
lidocaine
prevents sodium gate from opening (no action potential)
Multiple Sclerosis
autoimmune attack of myelin
EPSP's
hypopolarization of post-synaptic membrane

autonomic nervous system
everything but motor neurons
(sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems)
blood-brain system
consists of tight junctions
cerebral cortex
site of initiation of all voluntary motor output and final perceptual processing of all sensory input as well as integration of most higher neural activity."
hypothalamus
regulates body temp, regulates osmolarity of body fluids, regulates food intake, emotions of rage and aggression, regulates anterior pituitary function (endocrine system), regulates uterine contractility and milk ejection, sleep/wake cycle
basal nuclei
inhibition of muscle tone, coordination of slow and sustained movements (posture), selecting purposeful patterns of movement and suppressing useless patterns of movement
thalamus
relay station for sensory information, relay station for motor pathways from cerebral cortex, interpretation center for sensory information, modality (pain, heat cold, touch pressure) of sensation is perceived here but not location or intensity.
pons
controls rate and depth of respiration
medulla
controls vomiting, swallowing, coughing, sneezing, blood pressure, heart rate and strength of contraction
posterier parietal cortex
perception of where the body is in relationship to the environment
premotor cortex
generate plans for movement; coordinate complex movements; "plan" transferred to primary motor cortex for execution
cerebellum
Maintenance of balance, control of eye movements, Regulation of muscle tone, coordination of skilled voluntary movement; Planning and initiation of voluntary activity
sympathetic preganglionic
acetylcholine
sympathetic postganglionic
norepinephrine
Parasympathetic preganglionic
acetylcholine
Parasympathetic postganglionic
acetylcholine
