24
Hydrolysis
Addition of water to breakdown polymers.
25
Carb digestion
Begins with salivary amylase (only 3-5%) | Most occurs in SI with pancreatic amylase
26
Protein digestion
Occurs in stomach and SI Stomach--pepsins most active at low ph Further broken down by pancreatic enzymes in the is including trypsin, chemo trypsin and carboxypeptidases
27
Fat digestion
Most occurs in the SI via pancreatic lipases | Emulsified via bile (synthesized in liver, stored in gall bladder, and released in response to cck secreted by SI)
28
Benedict's test
Starch +salivary amylase--> maltose | -) blue (means no breakdown (+) several colors-- means sugar breakdown
29
Blue Benedict's test
Negative. Means starch is present and sugar did not break down
30
Green yellow or red Benedict test
Is positive. Means maltose is present and sugar did breakdown
31
Lugols test
Starch + salivary amylase --> maltose Tests for starch (-) brown = hydrolyzed starch (+) black = starch is still present
32
Black Lugols test
(+) means starch is present ( so no carb breakdown)
33
Brown Lugols test
Hydrolyzed starch is present. Digestion has occurred
34
Biurets test
Protein + pepsin --> polypeptides Tests for the presence of peptide linkages (+)-violet protein is present (-) no color, pink or blue. Means there has been protein breakdown and less peptide linkages are present.
35
Protein digestion components in this lab
Egg whites and pepsin solution
36
Violet Biurets test
Positive means there are peptide linkages present and the protein did not break down
37
Clear, blue or pink Biurets test
Negative. Means protein has broken down and less peptide linkages are present.
38
Litmus test
Lipid + lipase --> fa + glycerol Tests for presence of acids (+) pink lipid breakdown occurred (-) blue no lipid breakdown.
39
Lipid breakdown components in this lab
Heavy cream and pancreatin
40
Systolic blood pressure
Higher pressure | Corresponds to ventricular contraction
41
Diastolic blood pressure
The smaller number | Corresponds to ventricular relaxation
42
Sphygmomanometer
Used to measure blood pressure | Cuff, manometer to read out pressure, inflating bulb to create pressure, exhaust valve.
43
Ausculatory method
Detect both systolic and diastolic blood pressure by hearing kortkoffs sounds
44
Kortkoffs sounds
Created by blood jetting through the compressed vessel when it opens enough to let blood through
45
Palpating method
Blood pulse through the artery is felt. | Only measures systolic pressure. Will be able to feel pulse at the point where cuff pressure = systolic pressure
46
Pulse qualities
Rate, rhythmicity, and strength of pulse
47
P wave
Atrial depolarization
48
Qrs
Ventricular depolarization
49
T
Ventricular repolarization
50
ECG
Electrocardiogram | Wave of depolarization moves across heart and electrical activity is recorded
51
Myofibrils
Repeating units of thick and thin filaments within each muscle fiber
52
Sarcomere
Functional unit of skeletal muscle contraction | Is one repeat of am yo fibrillation
53
Thin filaments
Actin, troponin and tropomyosin. Tropomyosin coils around actin and troponin is bound to the coil.
54
Thick filament
Myosin. Has long tail and globular heads with binding sites for actin and ATP. Is energized when bound to ATP hydrolyzed but still bound.
55
What happens in muscle when ca is bound?
Conformational change in e troponin tropomyosin complex. Troponin binds ca tropomyosin moves. Energized ATP can bind if actin
56
Motor units
A single motor neuron and all the muscle fibers that are inner gated y it
57
All or none law of a skeletal muscle contractions
All muscle fivers inner aged by a stimulated motor neuron will contract maximally
58
How is skeletal muscle strength increased?
The number of actin and myosin heads that bind will increase or the frequency tht actin and myosin bind and unbind per single action potential should increase. Or increase the frequency of stimuli
59
Minimal stimulus voltage
When a stimulus is strong enough to reach threshold of one motor neuron to fire an action potential. A stronger stimulus will reach threshold of multiple motor neurons recruiting additional motor neurons to produce contraction
60
Maximal stimulus voltage
The strength of the stimulus that activates all of the motor units of a muscle.
61
Muscle fatigue
Decaying of the strength of contraction. Due to the cessation of electrical activity due to accumulation of k+ and lactic acid and the depletion if ATP.
62
Adaptation
When a continuous stimulus of constant strength is applied to a receptor a progressive decrease of responsiveness of the receptor occurs over time. The receptor becomes unresponsive to stimulus of the same type.
63
Sensory units
A single sensory neuron and all of the receptors it inner area
64
What factors impact the precision to localize stimuli?
- size of receptive field - number of receptive fields - density of overlap of sensory units - density of receptors within a receptive field
65
Lens
Directly behind the iris
66
What happens to see far away?
Ciliary relax--zonular fibers taught--lens is flat
67
What happens to see near
Contract ciliary muscles-- fibers loose--lens convex
68
Lens
Can bend to refract rats if light
69
Cornea
Transparent front of eye | Important for focus onto the retina
70
Photoreceptors
Convert light energy into a neural signal
71
Rods
Activated by low levels of light and detect black and white
72
Cones
Activated by bright light and detect color
73
Fovea centralis
Region of the retina with the highest concentration if concession but no rods
74
Optic disk
Blind spot. A region that contains no photoreceptors--empty era
75
Presbyopia
Age related decline in the ability of the lens to become convex to focus on near objects
76
Nearsighted
The eyeball is too long and can focus on near objects but lens focus distant objects IN FRONT OF THE RETINA AKA MYOPIA
77
Visual acuity equation
d/D d= distance from chart D= distance at which the line can be read with normal vision.
78
What does 20/80 mean?
This person can see an object at 20 ft that a normal person can see at 80ft.
