200
The valve separating the right atrium and right ventricle
What is the tricuspid AV valve?
200
Most abundant white blood cell in circulation
What are neutrophils
200
The "thick" and "thin" filaments in a muscle fiber respectively
What are myosin and actin?
200
The location in the lungs where gas exchange occurs
What are the alveoli?
200
Location of filtration in nephron.
What are the glomerulus and glomerular capsule?
400
The difference between pulse and mean arterial pressures
What is pulse pressure is pressure in the major arteries and mean arterial is pressure felt by the organs?
Formulas: PP = SP - DP and MAP = 2/3 * DP + 1/3 * SP
400
The key features of a stem cell
What is can self-replicate and can turn into multiple different types of cells?
400
Parts of a muscle fiber that change length during contraction.
What are H zone, I band, and distance between Z discs?
400
The volume of "normal" breathing as seen on the spirometry output.
What is the tidal volume?
400
The descending loop of the nephron is permeable to this
What is water?
600
The letters corresponding to the first and second heart sounds respectively on this PV loop
What is C and F?
600
The three steps of hemostasis
What are platelet plug formation, coagulation cascade, and clot removal?
600
Parts of muscle fiber that don't change length during contraction.
What are M line and A band?
600
The purpose of surfactant in the lungs
What is keeping the alveoli in tact and increasing overall lung compliance?
600
The function of vasopressin
What is reabsorb water?
800
The key difference between a Newtonian and Casson's Fluid
What is Casson's fluid will not flow until a certain shear rate is reached (and will flow non-linearly at low shear rates) while Newtonian fluids flow at rates linear to the shear rate?
800
The region on an antibody that the antigens bind at.
What is the Fab region?
800
The type of contraction in which the load is too heavy and the muscle doesn't lengthen/shorten as it generates force
What is isometric?
800
Two factors that can affect alveolar gas exchange
What are surface area and diffusion distance?
800
The molecule and calculation that can be used to estimate GFR.
What is the clearance rate of inulin?
1000
The four factors that influence a person's mean arterial pressure
What are blood volume, cardiac output, arterial resistance, and relative distribution of the blood?
1000
The 4 blood types and their respective antigens and antibodies
What is:
O - No antigens (RBC), A and B antibodies (plasma)
A - A antigens, B antibodies
B - B antigens, A antibodies
AB - A and B antigens, No antibodies
1000
The general process of a skeletal muscle contraction
What is:
ATP binds to myosin to release actin, Myosin hydrolyzes ATP into ADP and Pi, myosin weakly binds to actin, troponin-tropomyosin complex moves out of way and power broke is completed, myosin releases ADP
1000
An event that would cause a rightward shift in the hemoglobin/oxygen affinity curve.
What is an increase in PCO2, increase in temp, decrease in pH, increase in 2,3-BPG?
