Physiology Flashcards
where is CSF
subarachnoid space and central Canal of spinal chord
CSF transports what ions
na, cl and bicarbonate
basolateral or apical membrane that is nearer the blood
basolateral
3rd ventcile to 4th ventricle via
cerebral aqueduct
how to csf return to venous blood
arachnoid granular into the superior saggotal sinus which is one fo the dural venous sinuses
blood brain barrier formed bu what cells
endothelial
normal CSF is
clear, contains little protein and little immunoglobluins
normal CSF is
clear, contains little protein and little immunoglobluins
accumulation of CSF
hydrocephalus in newborn
aqueous humour has what that buffers
bicarbonate
what is an antioxidant in aqueous humour
ascarbate
what is tranpsorted from interstitial fluid to epithelial cells
cl and na
acetozolamide can lead to
acidosis
nasal or temporal fibres cross over
nasal
amblyopia
no problems with optic and retina but one eye has better vision than the other
order of signal
photoreceptors
bipolar cells
ganglion cells
photoreceptors eg cones and rods do what
transduction - radiation to neural
membrane potenital depolrise or hyper polarise with light
hyperpolarise
rhodopsin are composed of what
vit a derivative and opsin
closure fo what channel results in hyper polarisation
Na
what is visual acuity
able to distinguish two nearby points, determined largely by photorecptor spacing and refractive power
what allows perception of colour
cones have different opsonis for discrete wavelengths
tears contain what cells
neutrophils, macrophages and mast cells
langerhan cell is an
macrophage
the only part of the eye with lymphatic drainage
conjuctiva
is cornea and sclera avascular
yes
what organs has immune privilege
no inflammatory response to antigens - brain, testes, placenta and eyes
ocular cicatrices pemphigoid is type 2 and is what
blistering and scarring of the conjuctiva
central cornea is defiecnt in
langerhan cells
oculomotor also results in paralysis of what innervation
parasympathetic
osmolarity of body fluids
300
inulin measures
ECF
albumin measures
plasma
ain ions in ecu
na, cl and hco3
osmotic conc on ICF and ECF is identical
300
gain or loss of NA only affects
ECF
active form of vit D
calcitriol
golmerulus is where the
fist step of urine production occurs
epithelial cells of bowman capsule are
podocytes
normal GFR
125
NACL leads to constriction of what
afferent arteriole
gfr in burned patients
will increase
para amino hippuric acid
not reabsorbed
fluid reabsorbed in the proximal tubule is
iso-osmotic
where is sodium not absorbed
descending loop of henle
what enable the formation of hypertonc urine
loop of henle
urea does what
adds solute to interstitial fluid
vasa recta does what
slows rate of blood flow and allows for more water reabsorption
proximal
loop
distal
p-iso-osmotic
l-hypertonic
d- hyposmotic
aldosterone is secreted where
distal tubule
what do things can trigger aldosterone release
increase in K or activation of RAAS
renin increases reabsorption of
Na
ANP acts to
lower BP
venous blood is more .. than arterial
acidic
ammonia comes from
glutamien
what is secreted to allow for bicarbonate reabsorption to prevent acidosis
H+
diarrhoea causes
metabolic acidosis - excess loss of bicarbonate
vomiting causes
metabolic hyperakalosis - excess loss of Hal
aldosterone hypersecretion causes
metabolic alkalossi
what muscle has gap junctions
cardiac
what muscle only has ca from SR
skeletal
what attaches skeletal muscle to skeleton
tendons
myosin is
darker
functional units of the muscle
sacromeres
troponin is on
actin
asynchronous motor unit recruitment helps prevent
muscle fatigue
muscle tension stay constant as muscle length changes
isotonic
main source fo ATP when 02 is present
oxidative phosphorylation
main source of ATP when o2 is not present
glycolysis
muscle spindles have what
sensory nerve endings - annulospiral fibres
synovial cells are
fibroblasts which produce synovial fluid
what makes synovial fluid have high viscosity
hyaluronic acid (mucin)
inflammatory synovial fluid is
straw to yellow
septic synovial fluid is
opaque
what mainly comprises cartilage
water
