Smooth Muscle- Walls of all organs eg. stomach, intestines, etc., Involuntary control, fibers are Elongated, spindle-shaped, pointed ends, Striations absent, slowest speed of contraction, greatest ability to remain contracted

Q

Name the 3 blood vessels of the cardiovascular system and explain the difference between them

A

Arteries
Elastic blood vessels that carry blood AWAY from the heart
Artery expands with surge of blood during contraction of ventricles, then snaps back during relaxation of ventricles
Under a great amount of pressure
Have thicker walls to withstand pressure; will spurt when cut
Can vary in size

Veins
Elastic blood vessels that carry blood TOWARD the heart
Can’t contract to help move blood back to heart
Have one-way valves to prevent blood from flowing backward
Blood is at a lower pressure
Thinner wall than arteries
Can vary in size

Capillaries
Extremely small blood vessels located within the tissues of the body
Fine network
Transports blood from arteries to veins
Exchange O2 with CO2 and nutrients with waste
Thin walled
Allow substances to diffuse between the blood and other body fluids and tissues

Q

Mrs. T went to see a pathologist, regarding the dermatoma she found on her arm. She was then sent to an oncologist for more testing. She was told that she doesn’t have enough antioxidants in her diet. She has to get chemotherapy for her cancer. By defining the underlined words, explain what is happening in this case study.

A

She went to see a pathologist, who examines bodies and body tissues by testing and using the lab.

She went to see a pathologist because of the dermatoma on her arm, which is the area of skin that is mainly supplied by afferent nerve fibers.

She was to sent to see an oncologist, who is a doctor who specialize in diagnosing and treating types of cancer

She doesn’t have enough antioxidants in her diet, which are natural molecules that help neutralize harmful free radicals in our bodies

She has to get chemotherapy, which is drug therapy against cancer, which is abnormal growth of cancer cells

Describe any of the 2 types of dental anesthesia used, any 2 types of dental X-rays, and 2 types of fillings.

A

Aesthesia
1.General anesthesia- substance is inhaled as a gas; patient unconscious, long recovery time
2.Topical anesthesia- substance applied directly to gums or mouth for pain relief on immediate surface; mild infections
3.Local anesthesia- applied by injection to gums or mouth; patient alert
4.Neuroleptic anesthesia- substance applied intravenously, slight consciousness to unconscious; recovery time less

X-rays
1. Periapical X-ray- complete side views from root to crown of teeth;24 films
2. Bitewing X-ray- crowns and part of roots are seen for 2-3 adjacent teeth; patient bites down on surface
3. Panoramic X-ray- machine makes complete half circle from ear to ear; 2 dimensional pic of all teeth
4. Occlusal X-ray- large x-ray to show whole bite of upper and lower jaw

Fillings
1. Composite fillings- made from a resin and particles mixed; naturally white, very simple and common on front teeth usually; not as strong as metal ones
2. Porcelain fillings- same material as china; made by hardening mold and baking at high temp; easy match color of teeth but brittle and hard to administer
3. Gold fillings- long lasting but more complicated and expensive, many visits
4. Silver (amalgam)- mix of silver and mercury and is soft to fit tooth then hardens; cheaper and easier and lasts

Q

Describe the part, structure, liquid, organs, and cells that make up the second line of defense of the immune system.

A

Second Line of Defense: Non-specific cells will work to fight the virus after detecting an invader.

  1. THE LYMPH SYSTEM
    This system contains lymph, which is a clearish liquid that bathes the cells with water and nutrients, and flows through the body in the capillaries. The lymph system detects and filters out bacteria.
    Different parts of your body have lymph nodes, which contain filtering tissue and lymph cells. When fighting bacterial infections, the lymph nodes swell with bacterial cells to indicate an infection.
  2. THE THYMUS
    This organ is in your chest, between your breast bone and heart.
    It produces T-cells, which bump into abnormal cells and kill them.
  3. THE SPLEEN
    Spleen filters the blood looking for foreign cells, and replaces old red blood cells. (It can be removed but you would get sick more often)
  4. BONE MARROW
    Marrow produces red blood cells, and also stem cells, which are cells that can branch off and become any type of cell. (like WBC’s)
  5. WHITE BLOOD CELLS
    Also called leukocytes, WBC are independent and move on their own to capture germs. They do not divide or reproduce on their own. There are many 3 classes of leukocytes, with different functions.
    Granulocytes (most), lymphocytes (B-cells/T-cells), monocytes (least and develop into macrophages)
