Anatomy/Physiology Flashcards
(24 cards)
Three parts of a Neuron
1: Cell body
2: Axon
3: Dendrites
Three joint motions
1: Roll
2: Slide
3: Spin
5 Skeletal system functions
1: Shape
2: Protection
3: movement
4: blood production
5: store minerals
3 Layers of muscle
Epimysium
Perimysium
Endomysium (deepest)
Slow twitch fibers
1: Increased oxygen
2: Smaller
3: less force
4: Slow fatigue
Fast twitch fibers
1: Less oxygen
2: larger
3: more force
4: fast fatigue
Muscle spindle (Stretch)
1: change In length
2: Stretch reflex
3: Cause contraction
Golgi Tendon (tension)
1: attach to tendons
2: Change in muscle Tension
3: Cause relaxation
Blood flow in heart
1: Right A (no O) pumps into tricuspid
2: Right V (no-O) into Pulmonary valve
3: Left A (O) into Mitral Valve
4: left V (O to body) out Aortic Valve to rest of body
Blood vessels
1: Arteries (Away from heart)
2: Arterioles (Small branches of artery)
3: Capillaries (Small B Vessels O2 exchange Blood/Tissue
4: Venules (Small veins/connect capillaries to larger Veins)
5: Veins (Bring blood to heart from Cap/no O2
Blood functions:
1: Transport O2
2: Transport waste
3: Transport hormones
4: Carries heat
5: Regulates temp
6: clotting protects leaving
7: fights disease in sickness
Heart rate during Exercise
Count the number of beats in 6 seconds and add 0
or x 10
Measure Resting Heart Rate
5 min of complete rest
Cardiac Output
Blood pumped by heart per min
HR x Stroke Vol.
Stroke volume
The amount of blood pumped out of the heart with each contraction
SA Node
Pacemaker of the heart
Bradycardia
less than 60 BPM
Tachycardia
greater than 100 BPM
Adult heart holds
between 4-6 L
Normal breathing rates
12-16 breaths per minute
Tachypnea
greater than 24 breaths per minute
Bradypnea
less than 8 breaths per minute
Respiratory quotient
Estimated HR:
220 – age
