Systole- contraction
Diastole- relaxation
What is the difference between systole and diastole
|
1. Transport 2. Hemostasis 3. Defence
What are the 3 functions of blood?
|
Smallest basic unit capable of carrying out all the functions needed for life
What is a cell
|
1. Forebrain 2. Midbrain 3. Hindbrain
What are the 3 main regions of the brain
|
Sarcomere
What is the smallest functional unit of muscle
|
1. capillary hydrostatic (inside of capillary wall, flow out)
2. interstitial hydrostatic (outside of capillary wall, flow in) 3. blood colloid osmotic (pull in) 4. interstitial fluid osmotic (pull out)
What pressures allow bulk flow to occur (4 things)
|
1. RBC- oxygen-carrying 2. WBC- immunity 3. platelets- clotting 4. plasma- fluid portion
What are 4 components of blood and what are their functions
|
1. obtain nutrients from environment 2. convert nutrients to energy 3. reproduce 4. communicate and interact with the environment 5. synthesize proteins
What are 5 essential functions of living organisms
|
1. Frontal- higher order thinking, personality, decision making, planning behaviour
2. Parietal- process sensory information for things like touch, pain, temperature 3. Temporal- auditory 4. Occipital- vision
What are the main functions of the 4 cortical lobes
|
skeletal- striated, somatic cardiac- striated, autonomic smooth-unstriated, autonomic
What are the differences between cardiac, skeletal and smooth muscle (ANS or somatic, striated or not)
|
Fast AP- left and right atrium, left and right ventricles, bundle of His, bundle branches, Purkinje fibers Slow AP- SA node and AV node
What is the difference between fast and slow action potentials (location)
|
First- longer to mount a response, longer to make specific T and B cells Second- have memory cells, faster and stronger response
What is the difference between the immune response after first and second exposure and why?
|
1. Temperature 2. Saturation of fatty acid tails of phospholipids 3. If cholesterol or not 4. Fatty acid tail length
What are 4 factors that affect membrane fluidity
|
Vm the neuron needs to reach to have an action potential occur
What is the threshold membrane potential
|
actin filaments slide past myosin filaments causing sarcomere contraction and therefore muscle contraction
What is the sliding filament theory
|
Sympathetic NS: -increase permeability of F type Na channels and T type Ca channels (positive charge enters quicker) Parasympathetic NS: -decrease permeability of F type Na channel and increase permeability of K channels (flow out, hyperpolarized)
How do parasympathetic and sympathetic NS effect SA node action potentials
|
How are T cells activated
APC process antigen and express MHC1/2 holding antigen on their surface they also express coreceptors that help binding of MHC1/2 to CD8 or CD4 on T cells
How are T cells activated?
|
1. simple diffusion 2. osmosis- diffusion of water 3. facilitated diffusion- polar substances move from high to low concentration through transport proteins
What are 3 types of passive transport
|
-for a specific ion, its equilibrium potential is the membrane potential when the NET flow of that ion is 0, so there is no current of that ion -ions try to move towards equilibrium potential
What is the equilibrium potential
|
-Na binding, membrane depolarization causes DHP/ L-type Ca2+ channels on T-tubule membrane to open -mechanically connected to the ryanodine/Ca release channels of SR→ opening of DHP causes Ca2+ to leave ryanodine receptors into sarcoplasm
What are DHP receptors and their function
|
1. atrial systole 2. isovolumetric ventricular contraction (ventricle systole) 3. ventricular ejection (ventricle systole) 4. isovolumetric relaxation (ventricle and atrial diastole) 5. ventricular filling (ventricle and atrial diastole)
What are the phases of the cardiac cycle (start from atrial systole)
|
MHC1- all cells in our body express MHC1, monitoring MHC1 expression used to identify infected and tumor cells (NK cell monitor and attack), INTRACELLULAR antigens MHC2- only APC, EXTRACELLULAR antigens
What is the difference between MHC class 1 and MHC class 2
|
1. 1st messenger binds to G-Protein linked receptor extracellularly- causes conformation change 2. alpha subunit affinity for GDP decrease and GTP increases- binds GTP 3. G-Protein detatches from receptor and GTP bound alpha subunit detatches from beta and gamma subunits 4. GTP bound alpha subunit goes to an enzyme- activates or inhibits based on if Gs or Gi protein 5. Enzyme activated/inhibited affects production of secondary messenger in the cell 6. Increase/decrease in the amount of secondary messenger to bind to protein kinase 7. Increase/decrease in protein kinase activity to alter proteins in cell
Explain how a GPCR works. Ex: how does a GPCR pathway causes increased or decreased phosphorylation of proteins
|
EPSPs (excitatory postsynaptic potential)- inc stimulus, inc EPSP
AP- inc stimulus, same strength AP
What is the relationship between stimulus strength and EPSPs and action potentials
|
Action potential travels from sarcolemma to sarcoplasmic reticulum via T-tubules→ causes Ca2+ release into sarcoplasm, Ca2+ binds to TnC of troponin to move tropomyosin out of the way so myosin can bind actin (by ATP hydrolysis)
How does action potential arriving at NMJ cause sarcomere of myofibrils in the skeletal muscle cell to contract
