40
Q

Rods Photoreceptor cell characteristics

A

Plasma membrane folds in on itself to increase surface area and get light in and exciting cells in lower light

41
Q

Cones photoreceptor cells

A

Short and do not have as much folding of outer segment

42
Q

Pedicel

A

In cone photoreceptor cells

Is what is communicating with bipolar cells

43
Q

Color blindness

A

When a single group of color-receptive cones is missing
Individual can’t distinguish some colors
On the X chromosome

44
Q

How does aqueous humor circulate

A

Made in the ciliary body, circulates around iris, picked up by trabecular meshwork, goes through canal of Schlemm and dumped into vein

45
Q

Canal of Schlemm

A

Fluid percolates through thin endothelial lining and loose connective tissue
not directly linked to trabecular meshwork

46
Q

Episcleral veins

A

What the aqueous humor eventually drains into from canal of Schlemm

47
Q

Plug up trabecular meshwork

A

The ciliary body will continue to make aqueous humor and it will build up and squish the retina

48
Q

Glaucoma

A

Obstruction of aqueous humor – blockage of canal of Schlemm or inflammation preventing aqueous humor form reaching trabecular meshwork

49
Q

End result of glaucoma

A

Increase intraoccular pressure

50
Q

Zonular fibers of the lens

A

Attach to lens on one end and ciliary body on the other

51
Q

3 regions of the lens

A

Anterior potion, equator of lens, Equatorial region

52
Q

Anterior portion of lens

A

Epithelial, flattened cells

53
Q

Equator of lens

A

More elongated cells and a of cell divison

54
Q

Equatorial region

A

Helps focus image- Cortical lens fibers that liar cells to ciliary body

55
Q

Cortical lens fibers

A

Squished cells in Equatorial region

56
Q

Cataracts

A

Opacity of lens caused by Change in solubility of lens proteins

57
Q

Conditions that can increase cataracts

A

Aging and diabetes

58
Q

Conjunctiva

A

Lining of inner eyelid and folds over sclera

59
Q

Tarsal glands

A

Inside the eyelid

Secretes fluid to help the eyelid float on the eyeball

60
Q

Moll’s glands

A

Sebaceous glands that make eye boogers

61
Q

Two things that make eye boogers

A

Moll’s glands and tarsal glands

62
Q

Red eye (pink eye)

A

Subconjunctival hemorrhage and conjunctivitis where the conjunctiva swell

63
Q

3 parts of the ear

A

External, middle, internal

64
Q

Outer ear

A

Convey sound to tympanic membrane

65
Q

Middle ear

A

Contains ossicles of ear
Where ear communicated with pharynx

tympanic cavity

66
Q

Inner Ear

A

Where we do the actual hearing and determining the balance of our head

67
Q

Malleus

A

In middle ear

Known as the “hammer”

68
Q

Incus

A

In middle ear

Between the malleus and stapes

69
Q

Stapes

A

In middle ear

Has a foot plate that sits in the oval window and goes in and out of it with the vibrations of the sound stimulus

70
Q

Process of hearing

A

Sound hits the tympanic membrane which causes vibrations to the malleus, incus, and stapes. The stapes moves in and out of the oval window to move the fluid

71
Q

Function of the tensor tympani m and the stapedius m

A

To slow down the vibrations

72
Q

Components of the membranous labyrinth

A

2 small sacs- utricle and saccule

73
Q

Labyrinth membrane

A

Each membrane lines the actual bony space

74
Q

Innervation to the ear

A

Vestibulocochlear n – specifically the vestibular n

75
Q

Peri lymphatic duct

A

Extends from vestibule (saccule and utricle) to the subarachnoid space

76
Q

Endolympathic duct

A

Dumps the endolymph into the endolympathic sac

77
Q

Function of vestibule

A

Spatial awareness

78
Q

How vestibule works

A

Fluid moves past sensory area that causes special cells to move and depolarize

79
Q

Macula

A

Sensory receptor areas located in the wall of the saccule and utricle

80
Q

Hair cells

A

When fluid moves, some hair cells depolarize in one direction while other hair cells depolarize when in another direction

in saccule and utricle

81
Q

Kinocilium

A

Most important thing in producing depolarization or hyperpolarization controlled by ion channels

82
Q

Type I hair cells

A

Further away from the base of the cupula

83
Q

Type II hair cells

A

Located more towards the cupula

84
Q

cupula

A

Glycoprotein-containing structure surrounded by endolymph in the ampulla of the semicircular canal

85
Q

Cochlea

A

After stapes moves oval window which moves fluid – fluid goes to cochlea and hits the round window to dissipate what came through the vibration

86
Q

How many parts of the cochlear duct

A

3 Scala

87
Q

What are the 2 Scala

A

Scala vestibuli, Scala media, Scala tympani

88
Q

2 Scala with peri lymph

A

Scala vestibuli and Scala tympani

89
Q

What lymph is in the Scala media

A

Endolymph

90
Q
