TEST 1 Flashcards
Physiology
Study of morphology
- physical behavior and adaptations
- looks at how animals go about solving the problems of life
Physiology related to other sciences?
Evolution provides brick to biological thought physiology holds to place
Physiology is often refers to as..
The queen of biological sciences
Cuz all sciences fall under physiology umbrella
George bartholomew calls physiology
An old mans game
Domain ecological physiology
Stress test
Adaption
Stress test
HOW individual organisms handle various environmental factors
Define tolerance limits
Adaption
Determines tactics animals use to make up life history stragity
Answers now what or how but to understand the why
Just so story
Stories of proposed reason
Hypotheses which require further resource
Frederick e.j fry
Physiology teacher
The effects of the environment in animal activity
He says animals only have 5 adaptations
Fry paradigm
Fry paradigm
Lethal factors
Controlling factors
Limiting factors
Regulatory factors
Directing factor
Lethal factors
Death
Controlling factors
Set pace/rate of metabolism and development
Limiting factors
Remove metabolites limiting metabolic performance
Regulatory factors
If something is off it has to take from other areas making them weaker
Directing factors
Attraction or avoidance
Knut Schmidt Nielsen
Water balance, salt excretion and heat and nitrogen balance
George bartholomew
Inductive reasoning
Developed animal environment approach
Per scholander
Attic animal
Animal diving phsy
5 important cell membrain functions that make electrical events possible
- act as free barriers of defusion (regulates what comes in and out)
- process where you spend a little energy to move something outside of the cell (exocytosis and excreation)
- receptors concept
- modles sometimes have charge
- anytime you have a potential energy source you can make work
steady ionic state
colegraphy property of state
four important charateristics that establish the inonic steady state
- differental permability membrane
- concentration gradient on either side of the membrain
- electricle charge on membrane
- active molecular pumps
permeability
the rate at which a substance passively penetrates the membrane under a given set of conditions
permeability of cell
viscosity
easier to run in air than in water
- high V means lower permeability
- determined by steral content #1 is colesteral
permeability of cell
thickness of membrain
thickness== harder to get across thinnner= all in example lungs
permeability of cell
the presents of channels
water can move through a lot of membranes only in channels for water.
-osmotic wide open channels
permeability of cell
size of deffison molecule
- small M goes across easier if its uncharged but if it charged then sodium electro which makes hydration cell which makes its the harded
- smallest ions have highest electronegativity which is the hardest to get through
charged
what major insights have emerged from physiology
- body size
- behavior
- adequency not perfection
- animals adapted to enviorment
- organismal reponces to change are complex
animal function
determining energy availability
–energy budgets
antoine lavoisier
– founder of animal bioelec
temp
- abiotic master factor
- cold blooded are quality as well as quantity
body size
-know as LAW OF ALLOMETRY size relationship affect metabolism, growth, movement
behavior
first line of defense against enviormental change
-animal behavior is determined by enviorment
adequacy
not perfection
-are a good as they need to be, not as good as they can be
animals are adapted to environment
natural world is organized and ordenry
–animals dont end up in habitat by chance
law if emergent properties
as complexity increases from level to level in biological hierarchy properties emerge
chemical potential effects permeability
concentration gradient
electrical concentration gradient effects permeability by
if it has a charge on it it does work
proteins
- can be used for enzymes
- made up of amino acids
- -*polypeptides== short chain of amino acids (normally negative)
Donnan equilibrium
allows to set up electrical gradient to maintain unequal cells on each side of the gradient
sodium patassium pump
- 3Na out
- 2 k in
- expendure of energy
- 120mv differental from inside to outside
rio genetic current
electrons. every living cell has this
polarized
+ on the outside and - on the inside
Rate of net solute flow (j net)= CONDUCTANCE of the solute * DRIVING FORCES
A= area D= diffusion c= solute concentraion z= charge of the solute x= distance r= gass constant
ficks law of diffusion
J= -AD (dc/dx)
- A= surface area for diffusion
- D= permeabilityof membrain
- dc/dx is the chemical potential
resting potentials
steady ionic state
excitable state
action potential
-low permability
patassium permabilty is
70mv
nernst equation
Vm=RT/z? ln c1/c2
-20 times more concentrated inside than outside 20:1 2.99
why would we get different mv
other ions have other permabilty numbers
goldman adjustment
long ass equation
-patasiom so permable it equals to 1
calcuim not in equation cuz so imperable
