25
Osmorceptors in the hypothalamus do what
Stimulated thirst and release ADH (antidiuretic hormones) from the pituitary gland.
26
Hypoperfusion of the kidneys is ?
Decreased in renal blood flow due to low blood pressers
27
What occurs when hypoperfusion of the kidneys takes place
The kidneys release Renin
28

Urine 24-48ml /kg/ day Faeces 10-20 Respiration 20
29
Osmosis
Movement of water through a semipermeable membrane from an area of low concentration to one of high
30
Diffusion
Particles from a region of higher concentration to lower
31
Isotonic p
Same pressure of that of plasma
32
Hypertonic solution
Higher pressure then that of plasma
33
Hypotonic
Lower pressure then that of plasma
34
Insensible or inevitable loss
Fluid loss from the body such as respiration and sweating that cannot be regulated
35
Cations
Positively charged ions ( electrolytes) such as sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium
36
Anion
Negatively charges ions such as chloride.
37
Plasma
Fluid in the body
38

42
Osmotic pressure
The pressure that is drawn through a semi permeable membrane
43
Anterior pituitary gland
``` Adrenocorticotrophic hormone (acth) Follicle- stimulating hormones (fsh) Growth hormone (gh) Luteinizing hormone (Lh) Prolactin Thyroid- stimulating hormones (tsh) ```
44
Posterior pituitary
Antidiuretic hormones (adh) also known as vasopressin released to increase plasma osmotic pressure Oxytocin- milk let down
45
Adrenocorticotrophic hormones (acth)
Targets the adrenal gland cortex and stimulated the release of corticosteroids and mineralocorticoids.
46
Follicle stimulating hormones (Fsh)
Targets the Sertoli cells in males causing spermatogenesis. In females it targets the ovaries stimulating growth of the follicles which contain the ova (eggs)
47
Growth hormones
Also known as somatotropin it acts on all tissue of the body stimulating growth by increasing the uptake of amino acids and protein
48
Luteinizing- hormones
Stimulates the release of testosterone. In females it targets the ovaries causing ovulation and development. Corpus luteum
49
Prolactin
Which targets the mammary glands to stimulate development during pregnancy
50
Thyroid stimulating hormone (tsh)
Targets the thyroid gland and stimulated the release of tyroxine.
51
Epidermal layer
Stratum corneum keratin Stratum lucidim nose and foot pad Stratum granulosum the nuclei of the cell is shrunken Stratum spinosum nuclei Stratum basal mitosis
52
Dense connective tissue
Strength in tendons Muscle to bone
53
Loss connective tissue
Surrounds organs and provide support. Connects skin to underlying tissue
54
Cartilage cells
Hyaline - c shaped wings found in the trechea Elestic- found in the pinna and epiglottis Fibro- strong cartilage supportive found in shoulder and hips Holds bones on articulate sockets
55
Cells in bones
Osteoblast- immature cells which can synthesise osteoid. Osteocytes - mature cells that maintain bone structure Osteoclasts- cells that can breakdown and remodel bone
