Q

The alveoli

A

type 1 - Thin structures which allow for gas exchange from the blood into the lung and vice versa
type 2 - synthesize surfactants to reduce surface tension

Q

How the right and left side of the heart brings blood

A

SVC brings deoxygenated blood from the systemic circulation superior to the heart. IVC inferior to the heart. Pulmonary trunk exits right ventricle with deoxygenated blood.

Pulmonary veins carries oxygenated blood to pulmonary circulation. Aorta leaves heart and has high pressure taking blood to systemic circulation.

Q

The heart cycle

A

Ventricular contraction - atrial ventricular valves close (ventricular systole) - semi lunar valves remain closed - inc pressure in ventricles - semi lunar valves open - ventricles relax - pressure drops - back flow of blood closes semi lunar valves (ventricular diastole) - atrial ventricular valves remain closed- pressure in ventricles becomes lower than atria - atrial ventricular valves open - blood flows into relaxed ventricles - atria contracts to complete ventricular filling

Q

Lub dub sound

A

Lub - closing of atrioventricular valves

Dub - closing of the semi lunar valves

17
Q

4 processes of a nephron

A

Filtration - movement of fluid from blood into the lumen of the nephron
Excretion - anything filtered from the renal corpuscle is destined for excretion unless its reabsorbed
Reabsorption - movement of the filtrate from the lumen of the tubule back into the blood through peritubular capillaries
Secretion - removes selected molecules from the blood and adds them to the filtrate in the tubule lumen

18
Q

Urine equation

A

Urine = amount filtered - amount reabsorbed + amount secreted

19
Q

Clearance equation

A

Urine conc x urine flow rate / plasma conc
