final Flashcards
what are the two major categories of the immune system?
innate and adaptive
what are the three functions of nervous system?
sensory input, integration, motor output
The volume of Air exhaled normally after a typical inspiration
What is tidal volume
And increase in CO2 in the blood causes a in this
What is pH
Law that states the volume of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure
What is Boyles law
The cardinal rule about fluid balance is fluid intake must equal this
What is output
These are four portals for water to exit the body
Kidneys,lungs,skin, and intestines
A type of respiratory pattern described as an increase in breathing
What is hyperpnea
This is the presence of abnormally large amounts of fluid in the intercellular space of the body
What is edema
The phase of cardiac cycle in which leaves the heart through the semi lunar valves
What is ejection
This represents a sudden late depolarization of the jubendocardial benches
What is that u wave
The sounds of turbulence generated by blood pressure measurements
Korotkoff sounds
The principle that governs the movement of fluid and solutes back and forth across the membranous wall
What is starlings law of the capillaries
Atrial depolarization happens here
What is the P wave
erythrocytes are what?
red blood cells,RBC
leukocytes?
white blood cells WBC
What are the main components of the lymphatic system?
Lymph, lymph vessels, lymph nodes, tonsils, thymus, spleen
Cisterna chyle
Receives lymph from the right and left lumbar trunks and from the intestinal trunk
Three primary functions of lymphatic system
Drain excess interstitial fluid
Transport dietary lipids
Carries out immune responses
Layers of the heart wall
Epicardium
Myocardium
Endocardium
Function of cerebellum
Fine Movement Coordination
Balance and Equilibrium
Muscle Tone
functions of the brain stem
functions such as breathing, heartbeat, and blood pressure
Function of the testosterone
responsible for production of sperm, growth of facial hair and the development of a deeper voice tone in men.
What is wheezes
High pitch continuous whistling sound produced by air passing through a narrow airway such as the bronchi are bronchial
Costal breathing
Drawing of minimal breath into lungs usually by drawing air into the chest area using intercostal muscles rather than throughout the lungs be at the diaphragm
Blood hydrostatic pressure
Is the main force that pushes water and solutes through the filtration membrane promotes filtration
Blood osmotic pressure
Is the pressure of plasma pulling on water opposes filtration
White matter
Consist primarily of myelinated axons in three types of tracks
Association tracks
Contain axons that conduct nerve impulses between Gyri in the same hemisphere
Commissural tracks
Conduct nerve impulses between corresponding Gyri from one hemisphere to another
Projection track
Convey impulses to lower parts of the CNS thalamus brainstem or spinal cord or vice versa
Refraction
The process of bending light rays both the cornea and the lens refract light rays and both must be functioning in order to properly focus light into the right spot
Adaptation
Becoming used to the stimuli
Accommodation
Adjusting vision from far to nearsighted
Stroke volume
Is the volume of blood ejected from the left or right ventricle
