Q

What are the 5 components of a reflex arc

A
  1. receptor
  2. Afferent neuron transmits impulse to CNS
  3. Interneuron integration
  4. Motor neuron conducts efferent impulses from integration to efferent organ
  5. Effector -fiber or gland responds

Q

Potential returning to resting potential

A

repolarization

25
Potential becoming more negative
hydrapolarization
26
Basic function of sympathetic division
fight or flight
27
basic function of parasympathetic division
rest and digest
28
What are antagonistic hormones
hormones that effects counter one another
29
2 pairs ot anatagonistic hormones and their function
insulin and glucagon - insulin stores fat - glucagon represses fat storage Calcitonin and PTH -calcitonin lowers blood calcium and PTH raises it
30
Pathway of sound
``` Pinna Auditory canal Tympanic membrane Ossicles Oval window Chochlea Hair cells Auditory nerve ```
31
What is farsightedness =
- hyperopia ( eye too short) | - closer objects appear blurred
32
What is nearsightedness
- myopia (eye too long) | - image formed in front of retina not on it
33
What are the stages of sleep
``` NREM 1. between awake and sleep 2. muscle activity continues to decrease (MOST) 3. deep sleep REM ```
34
What is the blood-brain barrier?
Keeps brain from circulatory system which keeps toxins out
35
What 2 types of cells are essential in forming this barrier?
Astrocyte | Endothelial
36
What are the 2 types of equillibrium
Static and Dynamic
37
What structures are responsible for maintaining static eq?
Saccual and Utricle
38
What structure are responsible for maintaining dynamic?
Semicircular canals
39
Feels horizontal movement
utricle
40
feels vertical movement
saccule
41
What is the synaptic cleft?
space between one neuron and another neuron or tissue
42
How do impulses travel from presynaptic neuron to postsynaptic cell?
Ca+ channels open Ca2+ induced exocytosis of synaptic Neurotransmitter transmits signal across cleft
43
Gigantism
hyper secretion of GH during childhood
44
Dwarfism
hypo secretion in childhood
45
Acromeglie
hyper secretion during adulthood
46
Where are Brocas and Wernickes area?
left hemisphere
47
Function of Broca's area
coordinate fine motor functions involved in speech
48
Function of Wernickes area
Comprehends language
49
Broca's Aphasia
speech becomes poorly articulated
50
Wernicke's Aphasia
speak easily but cannot understand language
51
What are the protective layers of tissue surround the CNS from DEEP to SUPERFICIAL?
``` Pia mater subarachnoid space arachnoid subdural (CSF) dura mater epidural ```
52
How are receptor fields measured?
2 pt discrimination test
53
What is a tropic hormone
Tropic hormones control the secretion of the hormones
54
GnRH
tropic hormone | -stimulates follicle stimulating hormone
55
Effects complement each other
anatagonistic
56
Systems produce similar effects
complementary
57
Systems work together for final goal
Cooperative
58
Where does an image travel when it goes through the eye?
- light enters through cornea - bends light through pupil - adjusted light passes through lens - light goes son to retina and light is converted into electrical impulses - travels to optic nerve
