42
Q

Pathway of Food

A

Mouth → Oral Cavity → Oropharynx → Esophagus → Cardiac Sphincter → Body of stomach → Pyloric Sphincter → Pyloris → Duodenum → Jejunum → Ileum → Ileocecal Junction → Cecum → Ascending Colon → Transverse Colon → Descending Colon → Sigmoid Colon → Rectum → Internal Anal Sphincter → Anal Canal → External Anal Sphincter → Anus → Out

43
Q

Duct System to the Duodenum

A

DRAW IT BITCH

44
Q

Function of the Urinary System

A

Filtration -Occurs in Bowman’s Capsule
Secretion - Occurs Primarily in DCT
Reabsorbtion - Occurs Primarily in PCT

Urine Produciton is simply a byproduct of these three functions

45
Q

Gross Anatomy of the Urinary System

A

2 Kidneys
2 Ureters
1 Bladder
1 Urethra

46
Q

What is the

Functional Unit of the Kidney

A

The Nephron

Roughly 1.24 Million per Kidney

47
Q

Glomerulus

A

Capilary Bed within the capsule

48
Q

Bowmans Capsule

A

Site of Filtration
All but blood and protein are forced into capsule
Need 55-60 mmHg to be funcitonal

49
Q

Proximal Convoluted Tubule

A

Primary Site of Reabsorbtion
Mostly Passive Transport
65% of original filtrate is reabsorbed here

50
Q

Loop of Henle

A

Dips Into Renal Medulla
15% of original filtrate is reabsorbed here
passive transport - Ca2+, Mg2+
Active Transport - Na+, Cl-, K+

51
Q

Distal Convoluted Tubule

A

Primary Site of Secretion
19% of original filtrate is reabsorbed here
Reabsorbtion of Na+, Ca2+, Cl- (Active transport)
ADH and Aldosterone act here

52
Q

Collecting Ducts

A

multiple Nephrons empty into collecting ducts
1% of original filtrate arrives here
1st called urine at this point
Empties into Calyces

53
Q

Pathway of Urea

A

Afferent Arteriole → Glomerulus → Bowmans Capsule → PCT → Loop of Henle → DCT → collecting duct → Renal Calyx → Renal Pelvis → Ureter → Bladder → internal urinary sphincter → urethra → external urinary sphincter → urethra → out

54
Q

Micturation

A

The urge to void (Urinate)
First occurs at about 300ml
Bladder can hold an average of about 900ml

55
Q

Micturation Reflex

A

Parasympathetic reflex
Stretch receptor in bladder wall
Sends signal to brain
Involuntarily opens the internal urinary sphincter
Voluntary control of the external urinary sphincter

56
Q

Different Sets of teeth

A

Deciduous Teeth - 20
Permanent Teeth - 32

57
Q

Functions of Saliva

A

Help Lubricate the mouth and contents inside of it
contain dissolving chemicals that can stimulate the taste buds to provide sensory information
Initiate the digestion of complex carbohydrates

58
Q

Ureters

A

Pair of Muscular tubes conducting urine the the urinary bladder

59
Q

Urinary Bladder

A

Hollow muscular organ used for the temporary storage of urine

60
Q

Urethra

A

Tube that extends to the exterior of the body to void urine

61
Q

How are pH levels in the blood controlled by the kidneys

A

If pH declines carrier proteins pumps hydrogen into the fluid, and reabsorb bicarbonate ions
If pH increases the system secretes bicarbonate and reabsorbs hydrogen ions
