90
Gradients
Things flow down their concentration gradient, Na+ and Cl- are higher outside the cell, K+ is higher inside the cell
91
Channels
Allow small molecules that can?t pass through the phospholipid bilayer (like ions) to cross the membrane
92
Passive diffusion
Flowing down the concentration gradient, but too large to fit through channels, so need a carrier protein (ex. Amino acids and glucose)

97
Can water flow if the intra/extra osmolarities are equal?
Yes if the concentration of a specific ion is greater outside so it enters the cell and causes water to follow
98
Active transport
pumping something against its gradient
99
primary
direct use of ATP to pump something
100
secondary
using another molecules movement down its concentration gradient to pump a different molecule against its concentration gradient

121
Structure of a long bone
Epiphysis: at ends of the bone, usually spongy bone; Metaphysis: separates the diaphysis and epiphysis; Diaphysis:compact bone, contains the medullary cavity
122
Compact bone vs spongy bone
Compared to compact bone, spongy bone:Has no central canal for blood supply, Has each strut covered by endosteum, Is less dense
123
Osteocytes
maintain bone,
124
Osteoblasts
secrete bone matrix
125
Osteoprogenitor cells
becomes osteocyte or osteoblast
126
Osteoclasts
digests bone matrix
127
Endochondral ossification
Chondrocytes in middle grow big and die in calcifying matrix, Blood vessels grow around edges of cartilage, Blood vessels penetrate central region and fibroblasts differentiate into osteoblasts and produce spongy bone at primary ossification center, Medullary cavity is formed and cartilage near epiphysis is replaced by bone, Vessels and osteoblasts migrate to epiphysis and create the secondary ossification center, Spongy bone is formed in the epiphysis and the epiphyseal plate is formed, Cartilage is continually replaced by bone until growth stops
128
Intramembranous ossification
Mesenchymal cells cluster together and secrete matrix producing osteoid which becomes crystallized. Osteoblasts get trapped in matrix and become osteocytes, Spicule formation traps vessels forming the central canal, Spongy bone it formed initially, but with remodeling compact bone can be formed

165
Sarcomere changes during contraction
H band and A band get smaller , Zones of overlap get larger, Z lines mover closer together, Width of A band remains constant
166
Excitation-contraction coupling
Ach from the motor neuron binds on the muscle fiber, opening Na+ channels, depolarizing the sarcolemma. The action potential rushes down the T-tubule causing the release of Ca2+ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Ca2+ binds troponin- tropomyosin moves off binding site. Myosin undergoes power stroke and releases ADP. ATP binds myosin head and causes detachment from actin. Free myosin head splits ATP and reenters energized state
167
effects of repeated stimulations
less time to pump calcium back into SR means more calcium is present in the sarcoplasm to bind and allow contraction- greater force production. If continuous stimulation occurs max tension is reached because all available calcium is in the sarcoplasm (tetanus)
168
isometric contraction
overall length of muscle is not changing
169
isotonic contraction
same weight is used throughout the lift
