Q

What are the sequence of events in the contraction of a muscle?

A
    1. Sacroplasmic Reticulum releases Ca++ into sarcoplasm (Ca shows up to the party
    1. Ca++ bonds to the Troponin (bribes the security guard)
    1. Troponin moves tropomyosin away from the myosin-binding site on actin (security card walks away from the door)
    1. Contraction cycle can begin (Woo party!)
      * ATP Hydrolysis (But first we need energy!)
      * Attachment of Myosin to Actin (Get together)
      * Power Stroke (Dance!)
      * Detachment of myocin from actin

Q

How does a NERVE action potential become a MUSCLE action potential?

A
  • 1. Release of ACh caused by voltage gated Ca+ channels, Ach flows from the Button into the synaptic cleft where it diffuses between the motor neuron and the motor end plate
  • 2. Activation of ACh receptors on the motor end plate (junctional folds), which open ion channels and Na+ flows across the membrane
  • 3. Production of Muscle Action Potential - Release of Na+ results in positive charge and triggers the release ov Ca++ into the Sarcoplasmic reticulum
  • 4. Close the ACh channels

    • Outer Fibrous Layer – dense irregular connective tissue
    • Inner Osteogenic layer – consisting of cells (allow bone to grow in thickness, not length)
  • Medullary Cavity (“marrow cavity” only in long bones)
  • Endosteum – thin membrane lining interior of medullary cavity
30

Q

A

Compact Bone - (Yang, Exterior)

A

Periosteum

33
Q

How do bones grow in thickness vs. in length?

A

Thickness - Via APPOSITIONAL growth. Appositional growth is the increase in the diameter of bones by the addition of bony tissue at the surface of bones

Length - Via the addition of bone material on the diaphyseal side of the epiphyseal plate by INTERSTITIAL GROWTH

34
Q

What is the sequence for bone fracture healing, and approximately how long and when does each occur? x2

A
  • 1) Reactive Phase - 6-8 hours after inury, fracture hematoma, swelling & inflammation (HOURS)
  • 2) Reparative Phase
    • a. Fibrocartilaginous Callous Formation - takes about 3 weeks (WEEKS)
    • b. Bony Callus formation, - 3-4 months (MONTHS)
  • 3) Bone Remodeling Phase (WHO KNOW?!)
35
Q

What is the difference between the following bone disorders? osteopenia, osteoporeosis, rickets, osteomalacia?

A

Osteopenia / Osteoporeosis -

both have low bone mass due to bone resorption/breakdown occuring at a greater rate than bone deposition/formation. Osteopenia is the precursor to Osteoporosis.

Rickets / Osteomalacia:

Decreased calcification due to vitamin D deficiency. Bones are rubbery/soft and easily deformed. Rickets occurs in children, Osteomalacia during adulthood/remodeling

36
Q

What are the impacts of aging on bone tissue?

A

Loss of bone mass - Demineralization - loss of calcium / other minerals
Brittleness - decreased rate of protein synthesis, collagen

37
Q

Two main hormones that control blood calcium levels and bone deposition of calcium – which one does which.

A

Parathryoid Hormone (PTH) - increases blood Ca2 levels (osteoclasts, bone resorption, absorb more from food, etc)

Calcitonin (CT) decreases blood Ca2 levels (inhibits osteoclasts, increase bone uptake)

38
Q

What are the 5 common fractures that we studied and their differences?

A
  1. Closed / Simple - Doesn’t break skin
  2. Open / Compound - Breaks the skin
  3. Communiated - Splintered
