Acid-Base balance
A molecule that accepts hydrogen ions
What is a base?
Ovaries are to _ as they both produce gametes
What is Testes?
You take a pregnancy test and this hormone is present the result is positive
What is HCG?
wave of contraction in the intestinal tract. Adjacent segments of the GI tract contract and relax
what is peristalsis?
has 60% of total body weight in water
what is a male?
Decreases neuron excitability, the CNS is depressed, also has coma and death
what is Acidosis?
Process where sperm cells mature, and spematocytes become spermatids?
What is spermiogensis?
_ causes the production of milk glands and _ causes the production of the milk ducts
What is Estrogen and what is Progesterone?
Unique movements in the large intestine that is similar to peristalsis
what is mass movement?
Movement occurs across capillary walls with hydrostatic pressure pushing fluid out and osmotic pressure pulling fluid in
What is Plasma and interstitial fluid?
works in the plasma and operates in a narrow range of 7.35-7.45. Decreases blood pH and shifts the equation towards Co2 which is exhaled and increases pH. Has the formula: HCO3- + H+ <=> CO2 +H2O
What is a Bicarbonate Buffer?
Produces testosterone, promotes spermatogenesis, provides a negative feedback to hypothalamus and anterior pituitary. Inhibits the release of GnRH and causes less FSH and LH
What is interstitial cells?
A baby cries which causes a decrease in dopamine this triggers the anterior pituitary to release this hormone that allows the breasts to produce milk
What is prolactin?
stimulated by low pH in the duodenum and produced in the duodenum this hormone targets cells in the stomach and pancreas. It reduces gastric acid secreation and stimulates bicarbonate release from the pancrease
What is Secretin?
This makes up 10% of ones water balance intake
What is metabolism?
someone has a pH of 7.3, CO2 of 36, HCO3 of 19
what is metabolic acidosis without compensation?
Days 1-14 of the ovarian cycle, causes an increase in estrogen and ends with ovulation
What is the Follicular phase?
This event causes ovulation to occur
what is the LH surge?
during this phase there is a stimulus coming from the brain based off of what we see, smell, think about, and taste food. It is activated by the PNS system and causes the release of acetylcholine, gastrin, and histamine. Overall increase HCL
what is the cephalic phase?
These sense plasma osmolarity in the extracellular fluid and are located in the hypothalamus
what is Osmoreceptors?
someone has a pH of 7.44, CO2 of 48, HCO3 of 29
what is Metabolic alkalosis with full compensation?
Secretes progesterone and estrogen. Helps prepare uterus for possible implantation. If fertilized/implantation does not occur it degrades
What is the corpus luteum?
Joining of the egg and sperm cell nuclei, Combines genetic material
What is Fusion of pronuclei?
This activates pepsin which breaks down proteins it also reduces pH which denatures proteins
What is Hydrochloric acid?
36% of your water balance output comes from
What is Skin/lungs?
