4 junction types
Gap

The 4 membranes
Serous
Mucous
Synovial
Cutaneous
If a membrane has a resting transmembrane potential of -70mV, it is said to be
Polarized
At rest, what ions will a cell have more in the cytoplasm than outside the cell?
Potassium
During membrane repolarization, there is a decrease in membrane permeability to which ion?
Sodium
A membrane maintains its resting potential due to:
Sodium-potassium pumps
Where do graded potentials occur and how to they reach threshold?
Graded potentials occur on the somas/dendrites and they reach threshold via summation
What cells build tissues and what cell maintains tissues?
Blasts, cytes
What cell detects deep pressure in the integumentary system
Pacinian corpuscle
What epidermal cell is used for protection of the skin and releases lipids?
Keratinocytes
What are the 3 functional classifications of neurons?
Motor
Sensory
Integration
What type of cell will release norepinephrine? I hat will be the receptor at the effector?
Adrenergic; alpha, beta
What are the 2 contractile proteins?
Myosin, actin
Steps in the contraction cycle:
ATP hydrolysis
Cross bridge formation
Power stroke
Detachment
What process aids in skeletal muscles relaxing?
Acetylcholinesterase breaks down acetylcholine
Inactivation of acetylcholine by an enzyme occurs naturally. Certain drugs destroy this enzyme. What will happen to the neurons?
Postsynaptic neuron will remain active
Somatic nervous system synapses with:
Skeletal muscles
This tissue produces mucous and moves the mucous in the airways
Pseudostratified ciliated columnar
Can increase blood calcium levels by increasing calcium absorption from the GI tract
Calcitriol
