When a person hyperventilates they exhale more CO2 than normal. What happens to the pH of the blood when a person is hyperventilating? and hypoventilates?
Hyper (not enough CO2) - pH raises and becomes more basic
Hypo (too much CO2)- pH lowers and becomes more acidic
Label B (line going up from D), C (ball-shaped next to the line) , D (line from brain)
B is thalamus, C is Cerebellum, D is medulla oblongata
Which hormones are secreted by the adrenal cortex?
Aldosterone, Cortisol, Androgens and estrogens
Name 2 of the 3 secretory products of the cells in this organ (pancreas)
Glucagon, Insulin, Somatostatin
When testing the plantar reflex, describe the Babinski’s sign response
For infants: positive response is Toes up, Extensor plantar response, toes fanning out
For adults: the positive response is the toes should flex downward (plantar flexion) in response to this stimulation.
What are two examples of a disorder when neurulation goes wrong?
Spina Bifida, Ancephaly
Identify the structures pointed to by the red arrows (she wont be really asking this)
oocytes
Consider the pedigree of a recessive trait. Is the trait autosomal or sex-linked?
Sex-linked, females are shaded to be carriers in diagram
What stage of meiosis is this? (2 cells, separating from one another)
Meiosis II, Anaphase II
True or False: Agglutination can occur when type A blood is given to a person with Type O blood
True
When calcium levels are low, what gland is stimulated, and what hormone is secreted? Does Osteoclast activity increase or decrease as a result?
Gland: Parathyroid
Hormone: PTH
Increase osteoclast activity
Match the functions
A. Receptor
B. Efferent neuron
C. Effector
D.Afferent Neuron
- Executes the response of the reflex
- Conducts the signal to the spinal cord
- Detects the appropriate stimulus
- Carries the signal away from the spinal cord
A –> 3
B –> 4
C –> 1
D –> 2
The _______ perform(s) the excretory and homeostatic functions of the urinary system
Kidneys
During what phase does crossing over occur?
Meiosis I Prophase I
The pedigree below tracks the presence of attached earlobes through a family’s generation. Having attached earlobes is an autosomal recessive trait.
If the individual III-6 (all carry the disorder) married a man homozygous for unattached earlobes, what can you say about their offspring?
The kids will 100% have unattached earlobes
What structure is presented by the arrow labeled A and its function? (squiggly lines)
Alveoli, increase surface area for gas exchange
Label the left and right side of this organ (pituitary gland, the left is darker and the right is lighter)
Left - Anterior pituitary (darker)
Right - Posterior pituitary (lighter)
Reproductive system of a human male, label 2, 3, and 4
2 - testis
3 - epididymis
4 - vas deferens
Give 2 examples of antagonistic pairs of muscles
Biceps and Triceps
Back and Chest
Abs and Lower back
Shoulders and chest/back
Hamstrings and quadriceps
Abductor and adductor
When blood leaves the aorta it will distribute oxygenated blood all over the body. Eventually, the blood will load up on CO2. How does this deoxygenated blood return to the heart?
Through the Vena Cava
Name two abnormal urinary constituents
Glucose, albumin, ketone bodies, RBC, hemoglobin, nitrites, bile pigments, WBC, kidney stones
Name the type of bone i am pointing to on the skull (bone goes down the middle of the skull)
Sutures bone
Identify the circled blood cell and indicate under what category it falls under. (the cell has 4 dark circles in it)
Neutrophil, Granulocytes
ALM
GBEN
Identify the gland(s) depicted below. Top and bottom (bottom is dark tiny circles and the top is light with larger circles)
Top - Thyroid (lighter and more bigger circle gaps)
Bottom - Parathyroid (darker and little circle gaps)
What is the name of the tool used to test reflexes?
Reflex Hammer
What makes up the appendicular skeleton? the axial skeleton?
Appendicular: Pectoral girdle, pelvic girdile
Upper and lower limbs
Axial: Skull, chest and vertebral column
Identify the following stages:
A
B
C
D
A. Early gastrula
B. 2 cell cleavage
C. Blastula
D. 4 cell cleavage
True or False: Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) is released by the hypothalamus into the bloodstream
True
Give the pathway of electrical conduction in the heart
SA Node –> AV Node –> Bundle of His –> Purkinje Fibers
