A&P II: Finale Flashcards
What do Goblet Cells do?
- Secrete gel-forming Mucin
- Mucin makes up Mucous and offers lubricative properties
- Na+, K+, Cl- ions present in lubricative properties
(Simple Columnar)
What do Chief Cells do?
- They make pepsinogen which turns into pepsin when it makes contact with acid
- Secrete Gastric Lipase
What are the Parietal Cells’ main function?
To make HCl (Intrinsic B12 Vitamin Reabsorber) to activate pepsinogen into pepsin.
What do stem cells do?
Divide by mitosis and push up and down, replacing other cells.
What do G-cells do?
Produce Gastrin which target chief and parietal cells within the stomach.
Chemoreceptor Facts.
- Present in aortic and carotid arch
- Target medulla oblongata
Facts about the DRG.
- Receives information from chemoreceptors in aortic arches
- Central chemoreceptor (main receptor/more sensitive to pH or acid particles) is inside the blood brain barrier
- Peripheral Chemoreceptors is inside aortic arch and within the Carotid branches
- Allows either conscious or subconscious control of eupnea
What neurons are within the VRG and where do they go?
- I and E Neurons
- Diaphragm and Intercostals
What do “I” neurons deal with?
Inhalation (2 seconds).
What do “E” neurons deal with?
Exhalation (3 seconds).
What are the 3 phases of Digestion?
- Cephalic Stage; think about food and triggers stomach to begin producing gastric juice
- Gastric Stage; food in stomach, triggers gastric glands
- Intestinal Stage; when stomach is inhibited by sympathetic nerve (which produces epinephrin)
What are the 3 effects of CCK?
- Causes contraction of gallbladder
- Stimulate the acini of the pancreas
- Relaxes Oddi
What does Secretin do?
Targets duct cells to produce bicarbonate to combine with hydrogen ions and form water to raise pH for pancreas.
What happens when you swallow?
- Soft pallet closes to block the nose
- Tongue blocks food from leaving the mouth
- Adam’s apple(Larynx) and esophagus connect to keep food from going into trachea (Epiglottis)
What type of cells make up the nose and the larynx?
Pseudo-Stratified Cells.
What is the Proximal Tubule histology?
Cuboidal Cells.
What is the Alveolar histology?
Simple Squamous Cells.
Blood Vessel Tunic Facts (From inner to outer).
- Serosa (Connective Tissue [Tunica Externa]); Own nerves and lymphatics; own blood vessels(attaches to other tissues)
- Tunica Media (Smooth Muscle)
- Tunica Interna (Simple Squamous); Thin layer of connective tissue
What are the capillary types and their locations?
- Continuous (Brain/Skeletal)
- Fenestrated (Kidneys/Endocrine Glands)
- Sinusoidal (Liver/Spleen/Bone Marrow)
What is EPO’s process?
Targets Bone Marrow to make Erythrocytes which constitutes Hematocrit.
What are the Liver’s functions?
- Creates Calcidiol from skin
- Secretes Angiotensinogen
- Secretes Hepcidin
- Secretes IGF1
What is the conversion pathway for Calcitriol?
- Skin turns cholesterol into Vitamin D3
- Vitamin D3 goes into Liver and converts into Calcidiol
- Calcidiol heads into Kidney and is converted into Calcitriol (Kidney works in synergy with PTH)
Vital Capacity Facts.
- The air that you normally take in and out at rest.
- Tidal + Inspiratory + Expiratory = VC
What is the first step of Coagulation and what are some facts about it?
- Vascular Spasm
- Pain nerve endings
- Cause vasoconstriction
- Platelets->Seratonin->Vasoconstriction
What is the second step of Coagulation and what are some facts about it?
- Platelet Plug
- Platelets stick to collagen and block bleeding
- Pull connective tissue and fibers to help seal off injured area
What is the third step of Coagulation and what are so facts about it?
- Coagulation
- Extrinsic Mechanism -> Uses Thromboplastin
- Intrinsic Mechanism -> Uses Slow moving blood
T-Cell Facts.
T-cell - Attacks Foreign cells and Infected cells (not in plasma)/Cell-Mediated Defense system
- Produce perforins and granzymes
- Kiss APCs
- Apoptosis
- Turned on by t-helper cells
B-Cell Facts.
B-cells - Humoral Defense System
- Turned on my t-helper interleukens
- Complement (proteins in the plasma)
When does the Atrium contract and depolarize on an EKG?
In the P-Q gap.
When does the Ventricle contract and depolarize on an EKG?
In the QRS gap.
What occurs in the T-Wave?
- Re-polarization of the ventricles
- Ca2+ pumped (ATP) back into sarcoplasmic reticulum and outside of cell
What are the order of events in the Conducting System?
- SA Node (Pacemaker initiates heartbeat)
- AV Node (Electrical Gateway to Ventricles)
- Bundle of His
- Purkinje Fibers (Distribute electrical excitation of cardiocytes in ventricles)
What occurs in Diastole?
- Ventricles are not contracting
- Filling with blood
- In between ventricular contractions
What occurs in Systole?
- Ventricles contract
- S-T gap.
