Exam 3 Flashcards
Rule of 2’s
Midclavicular line
Midaxillary line
Midscapular line
Rib: 6,8,10
Muscles of Respiration
Internal- expiration
External- inspiration
Control of respiration
Nervous system: Pons and medulla
Peripheral chemoreceptors: carotid and aortic bodies determine blood pH
Control mechanisms of endocrine glands
Negative feedback and neural (hypothalamus)
Endocrine glands
- ductless
- highly vascularized
- secrete hormones into blood
Anterior pituitary hormones (adenohypophysis)
“All people like to get freaky”
1) ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone)
2) Prolactin
3) Luteinizing hormone
4) Thyroid stimulating hormone
5) Growth hormone (increase mitosis and protein synthesis)
6) Follicle stimulating hormone
Posterior pituitary hormones (neurohypophysis)
1) Oxytocin
2) ADH (antidiuretic hormone)
Thyroid
cuboidal cells make hormones
follicles store the hormone
Calcitonin
decreases osteoclast activity
Parathyroid hormone (PTH)
stimulates osteoclast activity
Adrenal medulla
Activated by stress
Secretes epinephrine-sympathetic ANS (fight or flight)
Adrenal cortex
Responds to ACTH
- secretes aldosterone-regulates Na and K levels
- secretes cortisol
- secretes androgens
Pancreas
Beta cell
-insulin=glucose uptake
Alpha cell
-glucagon=glucose release
Bicarbonate
Pineal gland
suspended from roof of third ventricle
- secretes melatonin
- controls sleep wake cycle=responds to visual pathway
- controls puberty by inhibiting GnRH
Hard palate
maxilla and palatine bones
Pulp of tooth
has nerves and blood vessels
Salivary glands
Innervation
- Parotid (CN 9)
- Sublingual (CN 7)
- Submandibular (CN 7)
Saliva
- water
- lysozyme
- amylase
- mucous
- salts (maintain pH)
Mucosa of digestive tract
Stratified squamous-mouth, esophagus, anus
Simple columnar-stomach, SI, LI
Meissner’s nerve plexus
- submucosal (remember in submucosal bc both Meissner’s and submucosal have an “s”)
- controls glands and mucous cells
Myenteric nerve plexus
- muscularis
- controls smooth muscle contraction
Muscular layers of esophagus
- superior 1/3=skeletal
- middle 1/3=mixed
- inferior 1/3=smooth
Retroperitoneal organs
kidney
pancreas
portion of duodenum
ascending and descending colons
