Homeostasis/Heme Flashcards
Normal body temp = ________.
You gain heat from ________ and __________.
You lose heat from ________(4).
Normal body temp = 98.6F or 37C.
You gain heat from metabolic processes and the environment.
You lose heat from radiation, convection, conduction, evaporation.
__________ can boost how much heat you lose.
___________: 60%, majority of heat loss.
Sympathetics can boost how much heat you lose.
Radiation: 60%, majority of heat loss. (radiating like the sun)
__________: air currents.
_________: Touching an object or air
Convection: like an oven, air CURRENTS.
Conduction: Touching an object or air, like electricity.
____________: sweat, also the main mechanism if it is too hot outside.
The overall regulator of temperature: _______
Evaporation: sweat, also the main mechanism if it is too hot outside.
The overall regulator of temperature: Hypothalamus
When you sweat ___________ (like after a jog), you can ________ the sodium you normally ________.
When you sweat _________ (like in 120deg weather), you lose a lot of sodium. This is when things like ___________ help with people who are sweating A LOT
You can eventually _______ to sweating a lot without _____________.
When you sweat slowly (like after a jog), you can reabsorb the sodium you normally lose.
When you sweat profusely (like in 120deg weather), you lose a lot of sodium. This is when things like pedialyte/gatorade help with people who are sweating A LOT
You can eventually acclimate to sweating a lot without losing a lot of sodium.
Hypothalamic Temperature Regulation:
Too cold:
Too cold:
Shivering
Piloerection (goosebumps/hair)
Increased metabolic processes
Hypothalamic Temperature Regulation:
Too hot:
Too hot:
Vasodilation
Sweat
Slowing metabolic processes
Overall, you are more sensitive to ______ than ______. _______x more receptors.
Fever: Increased set point within the
_________ due to endogenous ________, like_________ and ________.
Hypothalamic Temperature Regulation:
Overall, you are more sensitive to cold than hot. 10x more receptors.
Fever: Increased set point within the hypothalamus due to endogenous pyrogens, like IL-1 and IL-6.
Do platelets have a nucleus?
What is the normal count?
No
Normal count: 150k-450k
Platlets:
Low =
High =
Low = -penia
High = osis
Platelets:
½ life = ________
Majority of plts are removed by the _______
½ life = 8-12 days
Majority of plts are removed by the SPLEEN
Platelet Plugs Triggering factor:
Exposed collagen from a damaged vascular wall
Exposed collagen from a damaged vascular wall makes PLTs _______ and cause them to leak _______, ________, and _________. Attracts more PLTs and __________ vessel to begin sealing it off
Exposed collagen from a damaged vascular wall. Makes PLTs sticky and cause them to leak vWF, ADP, and thromboxane A2. Attracts more PLTs and constricts vessel to begin sealing it off
Note: Platelet plugs are not a blood clot YET
It only takes ________ seconds to make a platelet plug, but a ________ is formed when you start activating ________.
Generally your body is in an __________ state
It only takes 15-20 seconds to make a platelet plug, but a clot is formed when you start activating fibrin.
Generally your body is in an anticoagulant state
Note: Platelet plugs are not a blood clot YET
Clotting Process:
1: A ruptured vessel/damaged blood cells trigger ____________.
Availability of _________ is the ____________
A ruptured vessel/damaged blood cells trigger prothrombin activator.
Availability of activator is the rate-limiting step.
