25
Q

Anatomical dead space

A

Where no gas exchange can occur; Va=(Vt-Vd)f

Includes low VQ ratios (shunt)

26
Q

Physiological dead space

A

Vpds= Vads + %volume not doing gas exchange

Includes high VQ ratios

27
Q

PS receptors

A

Preganglionic: ACh to nicotinic receptor on ganglion

Postganglionic: muscurinic

28
Q

Primary vs secondary active transport

A

Primary: uses ATP

secondary: paired with another ion thats going down its concentration gradient

29
Q

Myelin forming neuroglia in CNS vs PNS

A

CNS: oligodendrocytes

PNS: Schwann cells

30
Q

Nernst equation

A

.058log(out/in)

31
Q

Conduction speed equation

A

Lambda= sqrt (rm/ri)

Rm= resistance across diameter of an axon
Ri= resistance down length of an axon
32
Q

Neuromodulation vs neurotransmission

A

NM: NT starts a G protein pathway, metabotropic

NT: NT starts an AP, ionotropic

33
Q

What chemicals cause EPSP?

A

ACh, Glu

34
Q

What chemicals cause IPSP

A

Gly, GABA

35
Q

Small molecule NT vs peptide NT

A

Small: clear core, fast transmission

Peptide: dense core, slow transmission

36
Q

Ways/examples to inactivate NT

A

Reuptake into presynaptic cell or glial cell (serotonin)

Enzymatic breakdown (ACh)

Diffuse out of synaptic cleft (NE)

37
Q

Pre vs postsynaptic modulation

A

Pre: modulate Ca current around cell to change release machinery

Post: elongation of transmission timecourse

38
Q

Relate Erev and IPSP vs EPSP

A

If Erev= Vm, then no change

If Erev>Vm, then EPSP bc increases membrane potential

If Erev

39
Q

Electric vs Chemical synapse:

A

Electrical: fast, common in simple animals, excitatory, bidirectional, signal similar to presynaptic

Chemical: slow, common in complex animals, excitatory or inhibitory, unidirectional (bc Na gates), signal doesn’t have to be similar to presynaptic

40
Q

AP vs PSP

A

PSP: fast, decremental, ligand gated channels

AP: slow, all or none, voltage gated

41
Q

Substance P

A

Involved in nociception, activates ascending pathways to CNS

Inhibited by endogenous opiates

42
Q

NT not packaged in vesicles:

A

NO and CO

43
Q

Name the taste receptors and what they respond to:

A

Salt: na; sour: H+ and K+ Bitter: blocks K leak channels; Umami/Glu: calcium

44
Q

Detection of light:

A

Cells constantly try to send signal; dark= Glu (inhibitor) released, light= no Glu

45
Q

ON vs OFF cells

A

ON: distinguish btwn things that have a bright background

OFF: distinguish btwn things with a dark background

46
Q

Detection of sound:

A

Potassium enters the cell to get depolarization; role reversal of K and Na

47
Q

Role of calcium in muscle contraction

A

Ca binds troponin which releases tropomyosin from the actin, allowing contraction to occur

48
Q

Steps to cause muscle contraction:

A
  1. ACh released at neuromuscular junction (motor end plate) 2. Signal goes to T tubule 3. Release Ca from SR 4. Calcium binds troponin to release tropomyosin from actin 5. Muscle contraction 6. Ca gets pumped back in SR 7. Tropomyosin rebinds actin
49
Q

Gastrin

A

From g cells in stomach, increases stomach enzymes, decreases pH, increases stomach motility

50
Q

Cholecystokinin; increases secretion of bile, pancreatic enzymes, relaxes sphincter of oddi

51
Q

Secretin

A

Increases secretion of bile, pancreatic bicarbonate

A

Gastric inhibitory peptide; increases insulin secretion

53

57
Q

D cells secrete _ which does:

A

A

Cephalic phase: prepares stomach to receive food, directed by vagus nerve, accelerates gastric juices

59
Q

Second phase of stomach fxn:

A

Gastric: homogenize and acidify chyme, stimulated by presence of chyme, histamine regulates it

60
Q

Third phase of gastric emptying

A

Intestinal: controls rate of chyme entering duodenum, stimulated by: low pH, presence of fatty acid, chyme, or irritants in stomach
