Review Flashcards
Sagittal Vs frontal Plane
Middle Left to Right
Vs
Middle Front to Back
Positive Ions
Cations:
Sodium, potassium, calcium
Negative Ions
Anions:
Isotonic vs hypertonic vs hypotonic
Solutions
ISO: same osmotic pressure as bodily fluids, retains its normal shape/no net gain/loss of water
Hyper: higher osmotic pressure than bodily fluids, cells lose water & cremate (shrink)
Hypo: lower osmotic pressure than fluids, cell swells quickly (hemolysis)
What are lactated ringers considered
What is normal saline considered
Osmosis
Water molecules diffuse from area of higher water concentration to lower
Diffusion
Process by which substances spontaneously move from regions of higher concentrations to lower (influenced by kinetic energy)
Facilitated diffusion
Some substances cannot pass through the lipid bi-layer of cell membrane requiring proteins to assist (still higher > lower)
3 functions of Golgi Apparatus
- Modifying & packaging secretions (hormones/enzymes) released via exocytosis
- Packaging special enzymes inside vesicles for use in cytosol
- Renewing or modifying cell membrane
Antibodies:
What are they and what do they do
Proteins that detect & destroy foreign substances
Inflammation:
What is it & what initiates it
Merocrine sweat glands
Skeletal system function/s
Most abundant mineral in body
Calcium function & importance
Sodium function & importance
Potassium function & importance
Afferent vs efferent
Depolarization vs Repolarization
