Indicate the tonicity 

Liver cells contain a high conc of glycogen while very little to none is found in the ECF

ICF is 0.9% solute conc. while the ECF is 9.0% solute conc.

The cytoplasm has a measured conc of 300 mOsm/L of solution. The ECF has an equivilent measured conc. 

hypotonic

hypertonic

isotonic

200

what feedback mechanism is reversing or negating a change

negative feedback

200

Shake or no shake? 

Tamiflu oral suspension is prescribed for a 5yr old child that cant swallow pills yet

Liquid Tylenol purchased OTC

Liquid amoxicillin prescribed for an ear infection must be mixed prior to filling prescription; it separated easily upon standing

Pedialyte: an electrolyte drink to rehydrate individual suffering from vomiting and diarrhea

Milk of magnesia for constipation is a mixture of magnesium hydroxide “milk” in water

An osteopathic doctor recommend gelatin to his patient who had a stress fracture; good source of protein

Shake: suspension

No shake - solution

No shake - colloid

300

Give the 3 tenants of cell theory

cells are smallest unit of life, genetic material, all living things are made up of cells

300

what is the fluid between the nucleus and surface membrane?

cytoplasm

300

what is the value of positive feedback mechanism? what are 3 examples?

happens quickly, amplifying (blood clotting, childbirth, fever) 

300

what is the supportive framework of protein filaments and tubules?

cytoskeleton

300

what is the clear fluid that the cytoskeleton, organlles, and inclusions are embedded in? 

cytosol or ICF

400

Name the 3 types of gated channels.

ligand(molecule binds to protein), mechanical/pressure, voltage(Na+, K+)

400

what surrounds the cell and is made up of proteins and lipids?

plasma membrane

400

what are the diverse structures that perform various metabolic tasks for the cell?

organelles

400

how is heat generated in the body? how is it increased? 

Heat is a byproduct of the breakdown of ATP. Skeletal muscle generates the most. Cellular activity and the use of ATP

increasing cellular activity, muscle activity, increase of thyroid hormone

400

how does the sodium potassium pump contribute to core body temperature? 

uses ATP, breaking phosphate groups releases heat

500

Explain why positive feedback is more likely than negative feedback to disrupt homeostasis

Going further from the set point

500

what is a solution that can resist pH change upon the addition of an acidic or basic component?

chemical buffer

500

what is the foreign matter or stored cell products?

inclusions

500

what are all of the body fluids not contained in cells?

ECF

500

what are the 5 factors that affect diffusion rate?

temperature

surface area

molecular weight 

permeability 

steepness of gradient
