What are the four chambers of the heart?

Left atrium, left ventricle, right atrium, right ventricle

100

A bundle of muscle fibers can be found in a 

Fascicle

100

What did aldosterone do specifically?


Increased sodium reabsorption by increasing Na/K pumps!

100

What do the prefixes normo- hypo- and hyper- mean?

Normo- normal range

Hypo- below normal

Hyper- above normal


100

What characteristic of tendons lead to force production at a super microscopic level leading to joint movement of the body?

They tendon connects to all the different connective tissue levels of the muscle so force is generated from the sarcomere all the way to the outside muscle

200
State the two circuits of the heart. Describe them also

Pulmonary circuit- supplied by right side of heart, blood vessel from heart to lung and back

Systemic- supplied by left side of the hear, vessels to tissues and back

200

Name 4 specific parts of a muscle fiber


SR, myofibrils, mitochondria, t tubules, sarcolemma, sarcoplasm, actin, myosin

200

What happens during sodium reabsorption? Like, what happens to BP? and why?

Sodium is reabsorbed from the kidney back to the blood and water follows so BP goes up?
200

Why do we say muscles pull they never push?

Because during muscle contraction the muscle shortens regardless of the movement being performed

200

What's my fathers name?

Vern H Reed III

300

What are the 3 main parts of the EKG that I told you to know? And what is happening at each spot

P wave- atrial contraction

QRS complex- ventricular contraction

T wave- ventricular repolarization

300

Name the functions of these 3:

M-line-

Z-line-

Titin-

M-line- holds myosin to middle of sarcomere

Z-line- holds actin to ends of sarcomere

Titin- gives muscle elasticity, connects myosin to z line

300
What happens to the PNS and SNS too allow urination to occur?

The PNS is more activated and the SNS is less activated leading to reaction of the urethral sphincters to relax. 

300

Which way does the Na/K pump pump Na and potassium?

Pumps Na out and K in!

300

What's my mother's name?

Cindee Reed

400

What does the term autorhymicity mean to you? Follow up question but do not want to give it away. Another follow up too

The heart can generate its own beat. 

100bpm. 

Parasympathetic nervous system. 

400

What happens when calcium binds to troponin?

Binding of calcium to troponin causes troponin to move tropomyosin which exposes the myosin binding sites on actin. 

400

What are the for main basic renal exchange processes? Where are molecules moving at each point? 

Filtration- blood to kidney, cleaning

Reabsorption- kidney back to blood, retrieving

Secretion- blood to kidney, molecules too big for absorption

Excretion- kidney to bladder. get rid of! 

400

What did Angiotensin II do lol?

Caused vasoconstriction and the release of aldosterone from the adrenal cortex

400

How many pounds of bacteria do we find in our gut?

2-5 pounds!

500

What is the equation for ejection fraction? What EF would indicate possible heart failure?

SV/EDV

<40%

500

haha board question. Go ahead and draw out/describe the crossbridge cycle

good to know for exam probs

500
ooooooo why is creatinine typically used as a measure of GFR instead of other molecule?

Creatinine is not reabsorbed after filtration. So, its clearance is a strong indirect indicator of how well the kidney is filtering. Other molecules like sodium can be reabsorbed so their levels in the blood would not reflect their filtration rate. 

500

What did Atrial Natriuretic Peptide do and why?

ANP is released when blood volume is too high. This is sensed by the stretch of the atrial wall and ANP goes to the kidney to decrease NA reabsorption so that more water gets excreted

500

What is the name of the transported that moves sodium and glucose and is used by gatorade and some other sport beverage companies?

SGLT 2!

Sodium glucose linked transporter 2
