Q

what is ANP and BNP

A

atrial natriuretic hormone and brain-type nateuriteic peptide

17
Q

what is the role of ANP and BNP and why are they released?

A

their roles are to reduce pressure by decreasing blood volume and are released during heart failure

18
Q

what is the order in the conduction of the heart?

A

SA node -> AV node-> bundle of his -> pukyne fibres

19
Q

is smooth muscle voluntary of involuntary?

A

involuntary, leading to things like hypertension, dysmennoreah etc

20
Q

LEARN THE SLIDE 58 ON CONTRACTION OF MUSCLE

A

PLEASE DO THAT RN (sliding filament theory too)

21
Q

What is myasthenia gravis?

A

autoimmune disease

22
Q

what causes myasthenia graves?

A

immune system produces antibodies against the Ach receptors on the endplate causing them to block and reduce synaptic transmission

23
Q

what 3 things form the thin filament of actin?

A

actin, troponin and tropomyosin

24
Q

what is required for muscle contraction o take place?

A

calcium
