extra Flashcards
grey matter and white matter in brain composition
grey matter arranged in layers called laminae on the superficial surface of the brain
white matter bundles (the axon fibres) form tracts that connects to the grey matter
grey matter and white matter in spinal cord composition
grey matter arranged in columns within the spinal cord
white matter bundles (the axon fibres) form tracts that connects to the grey matter
anatomy of sympathetic system
origiinates in the thoracolumbar (thoracic and lumbar) sections of the spinal cord
anatomy of parasympathetic system
from the brainstem and the sacral sections of the spinal cord
corpus callsom
connects the right and left hemisphere
regulator of of cardiac, smooth and skeletal
troponin, calmodullin, troponin
relationship of of cardiac, smooth and skeletal
in unison, in unison, independent from other muscle fibres
linkage of of cardiac, smooth and skeletal
linked, linked, not linked
relationsh
Ca source of of cardiac, smooth and skeletal
intracellular, both intracellular and extracelluar, intracellular
origin of osteoblasts and osteoclasts
mesenchymal and haematopoeitic
they function through [phosphatase]
osteoblasts and osteoclasts
alkaline and acid
cortical bone and cancellous bone activity comparison
low and high
cortical bone and cancellous bone activity composition
80% and 20%
bone remodelling mechanism
microfracture forms during physcial stress
haemapoeitic stem cells –> pre osteoclasts –> osteoclasts
osteoclasts reabsorb the bone, leaving a reabsorption pit
mesenchymal stem cells –> pre osteoblasts arrive to the reabsorption pit
pre osteoblasts differentiate into osteoblasts to deposit collagen and mineralise it by depositing hydroxyapatite
osteoblasts mature into osteocytes which remain in the bone and maintain the bone integrity (can control the activity of osteoclasts and osteoblasts)
