tissues most depends on vitamin D for proper function
bone building osteoblasts
during inhalation pressure
decreases creating a vaccum thus drawing air into the lungs
during exhalation
pressure increases drawing air out of lungs
rate of diffusion is optimized by each of the following
increasing surface area
increasing efficiency of diffusion
decreasing distance for diffusion
lower partial pressure atmospheric O2 means
slower diffusion for O2 into lungs and so less for blood
fertilized secondary oocyte becomes
a haploid ovum
duodenum
bile + pancreatic enzymes enter
chemical digestion + breakdown of proteins and fats
jejunum
abosrbs nutrients fluids
produces vitamin k
cecum appendix
illeum
abosrbs remaing nutrient, bile salts, and fluids
villi
folds in muscoal lining
microvillie
cover vili, brush boreder enzymes
cecum
ferments cellulose in herbivores
appendix
vestigial structure in humans
minimal role in cellulose digestion
CCK
dec apperitte
delviers bile
ghrelin
inc appetite
leptin
loose appetite
stimulus: @ fat storage cells
gastrin
ppsinogen
GIP
stimulate insulin, inhibits empyting of chyme
pulmonary
heart to lungs
systemic
body to heart
venous pump
blood flows in 1 way
valve opens and closes due to contraction of muscles
muscles squeeze vien-> helps blood move
blood pressure + muscle contraction
pathway of air
through the nose
pharynx
larynx
trachea
bronchi
brincioles
aveoli
gas exchange
alveoli
O2 diffuses unto capilries
Co2 diffuses out into the alveoli for exhale
more Co2 more H lower pH faster breathing
