Lab 1 Flashcards
An XY scatter graph is usually chosen when….
Both sets of data are numerical in nature and on a continuous scale.
What happens in the process aerobic metabolism?
Oxygen is used to generate ATP. When an animal is exercising it uses ATP therefore we need to consume more oxygen to replenish our ATP.
How to write a Figure Legend? (5 parts)
- ) What kind of graph is this?
- ) What is the graph representing or illustrating?
- ) What was the experimental subject and how was data obtained?
- ) What is the trend or relationship of the data?
- ) What is the physiological significance of this data.
What 2 general functions in Labscribe are your “life savers”
Autoscale and Double display time
Vasoconstriction
When blood vessels constrict the flow of blood decreases thus retaining body heat/ increasing vascular resistance. This makes the skin go pale
Vasodilation
When blood vessels dilate the flow of blood is increased due to a decrease in vascular resistance. Therefore dilation of aretial blood vessels decrease blood pressure.
what is the receptor called that communicates with the hypothalmus?
Thermoreceptors!
What device records the pulses of the blood moving into arteries?
Plethysmopgrah
What is located within the dermis of the skin that helps us maintain homeostasis?
Specialized sensory receptors (peripheral thermoreceptors) that are sensitive to changes in temperature.
When is a column graph appropriate?
When the independent variables (X) are non numerical categories such as treatment groups.
What happened when we put the ice on Conley’s arm?
Upon the cold stimulus conley’s thermoreceptors went and told the hypothalamus to “INDUCE VASOCONSTRICTION DUDE” to maintain homeostasis within conleys body.
What does autoscale button do?
It increases the height of the signal displayed to within 5% of the upper and lower limits of the y axis
Depolarization of the myocardial cells in the ventricle causes the ventircles to…
contract and force blood into the major arteries of the circulatory system in a pulsatile manner.
