Q

Myofilaments

A

Threadlike structures of myofibrils in the muscle .
A bands–Are dark bands;thin actin filaments and thick myosin.
I- bands–are light bands or striations.contain Z lines

Q

Sliding theory of muscle contraction

A

Thick and thin myolfilaments interdigitate and slide between and with one another during muscle contraction.Calcium and adenosine triphosphate(ATP) are vital in producing muscle contraction

17
Q

Electrical activity of the heart

A

P wave-occurs with Atria ;depolarization or contraction
QRS wave complex-depolarization of the ventricle
T Wave-represents electrical activity(repolarization)
or relaxation of the ventricles.

18
Q

liver

A

Largest Visceral organ of the body.receives blood from the portal vein.important exocrine organ and secrets the bile ,a fatty emulsifer.

19
Q

Pancreas

A

Is both endocrine and exocrine in function producing pancreatic enzymes as well as the hormone INSULIN (islet pancreatic cell).

20
Q

CNS neurotransmitter

A

Acetylcholine,y aminobutyric acid(GABA),Serotonin

21
Q

frontal lobe(brain)

A

Higher cortical activity or mental integration.

22
Q

Temporal Lobe(brain)

A

Functions in Language,memory.auditory information processing.

23
Q

occipital lobe

A

Posteriorly situated,funtion as primary and secondary visual center.

24
Q

limbic lobe

A

Medial part of the brain.Emotional expression such as fear,aversion and attraction.

25
Spleen
Largest lymph organ.Function :store and destroy old red blood corpuscles
26
pituitary gland
Master gland,releases and store hormones. *Follicle stimulating hormone *thyrotropic stimulating hormone *growth hormone *prolactin
27
Parathyroid gland
Regulates the amount of calcium in the bloodstream
28
suprarenal gland
Location:Cranial aspect of the kidney *Adrenal cortex:secrets glucocorticoids,secrets epinehprine(adrenaline)and norepinehrine
29
nitric oxide
Potent vasodilator released by endothelial cells in response to changes in blood pressure. *Overstimulation of the endothelin causes oxidative stresss
30
QT Prolongation
Heart muscle takes longer to contract and relax;resulting in cardiac arrest. Represents the full process of ventricular repolarization
31
thymus gland
Location: Anterior thorax Produces T-Lymphosites
32
GASEOUs O2 and Co2 are exchanged in which level of respiratory system?
Pulmonary Alveoli
33
Ovarian follicle produces and secrets what hormones
Estrogen
34
Responsible for the manifestation of secondary sex hormone in male.
Testosterone
35
Ovarian cortex contains germ cells located in cellular enclosures
Follicles
36
Large blood vessel that delivers deoxygenated blood to the liver
portal vein
37
Long bones that are covered on the surface by a highly vsscular connective tisssue
Periosternum
38
Neuro transmitter released from the axon terminal of the neuromuscular junction
Acetylcholine
39
invertebral disc of the body location
Bony spine
40
Component of the skeleton located in the chest and rib structure
Sternum
41
Cell that is lacking a nuclear membrane.
Prokaryotic cells
42
Filters the blood and small intestine.Produces WBC.
Spleen
