Extra Flashcards
What marking do body cells recognize not to attack?
MHC Class l
ANP is opposite to
Angiotensin ll
Tubular Reabsorption
Movement of water and solutes from nephron tubules to bloodstream
Tubular secretion
Movement of water and solutes from circulation into tubules
Vasa recta
Formed from the afferent arteriole, basically capilleries that follow the path of renal tubules allowing for secretion and absorption
Glomerulus part of
afferent arteriole NOT nephron
Are ureters retroperitoneal
yes
Benefit of transitional epitheliu
Able to stretch
Is secretion selective
Yes only waste is actively secreted
Is reabsorption selective
Yes
Main
MSH, HGH
Released by pit gland
ADH released by
Pit gland mde by hypothalamus
Describe Olfactory receptor
1-month lifespan
- Bipolar axon with a dendrite
- The hair /cilia is the site of transduction
Taste buds not common in adults
Foliate
What are gustatory receptor cells
Microglia sticking up to the surface
Types of papillae
Vallate (large)
Fungiform (all over)
Filiform (for tactile only)
Tarsal plate
Connective tissue beneath eyelid
Types of conjuctiva
Bulbar (Whites of eyes)
Paplebral (Under eyelids)
Flow of tears
lacrimal glands (Produce tears)
↓
* lacrimal (excretory) ducts - distribute over surface of eye (moisten + antibiotiscs protect
↓
* superior/inferior lacrimal canal – drain tears into …
↓
* lacrimal sac – drains tears into
↓
* nasolacrimal duct – drains into
↓
* nasal cavity
Vascular tunic
ciliary body and iris)
- choroid
- Most vascular part (very post.)
- Give good blood supppy and nutrition to retina
Ciliary components
Process: Folds of body, produce aqueous humor
muscle: Control size of lens
Zonules: Attatch body to lens
Two types of cells in bipolar layer
Amacrine: For tubocharging visual acuity through contrast
Horizontal: Shutting off parts of visual field for greater contrast
Macula Lutea
Midline of vision coming in
Area of vision with only cones
Central fovea
Which form of mac degen can be treated?
Wet (Leaky BV)
NOT muscle atrophe
GLycoma
Pressure inside eye-damaging optic nerve
Cavities (chambers) of eye
Anterior cavity
- Anterior chamber: Bw cornea and iris
- Posterior chamber: Bw iris and lens
Vitreous chamber
What do Utricle and vestibule help with?
Balance and equilibrium
What is the vestibule
A division of the bony labrinth
3 divisions of bony labrynth
Semicircular canals
vestibule
cochlea
Utricle and saccule
Sacs contained within the vestibule
- contain maculae for regulating static equilibrium
(contribute to dynamic)
Regulators of equilibrium in semicircular canals?
Cristae regulates dynamic equilibrium
What is white pulp
Part of the parenchyma of the spleen
Surrounds major afferent BVs
Contains many kinds of lymphocytes (WBCs)
Contains:
Macrophages
central arteries
Complement (protein) system
group of about 30+ proteins present in blood plasma and on cell membranes
when activated, these proteins “complement” or enhance certain immune, allergic, and inflammatory reactions
