MUSCLE FORCE FOR SWALLOWING


Give this one a try later!


PHARYNGEAL CONSTRICTORS:
3 skeletal muscles that form Pharynx Wall:
- superior
- middle
- inferior
*Provide force for swallowing - pushes food down
the pharynx




EFFECTS OF INSULIN: ABSORPTIVE STATE


Give this one a try later!

, Digested food is converted into sugar or glucose.
-4 hrs., b/f and after meals


Insulin is a Hormone that ALLOWS GLUCOSE TO ENTER CELLS For energy.
Insulin:
-INCREASES liver and muscle glycogenesis,
-INCREASES adipose tissue
-INCREASES triglycerides uptake
-INCREASES amino acid uptake




EFFECTS OF GLUCAGON: POST-ABSORPTIVE STATE


Give this one a try later!


Body uses nutrient stores for energy.


Glucagon:
-INCREASES liver glycogenolysis
-INCREASES gluconeogenesis
-INCREASES Triglyceride Breakdown
-NO EFFECT on amino acids




88. Describe the process of temperature regulation by the hypothalamus.


Give this one a try later!


HTH & TEMP REGULATION

*constant core body temp of head/neck region
*monitors blood temp/nerve signals from skin

-Shivering: skeletal muscle contraction
-Goosebumps: Arector Pilli muscle contraction
-Sweating: metabolic rate increases --> to rid of
heat, stimulates sweat glands

, -Increase TH secretion: T3 & T4
--->INCREASES cell metabolic rate
--->INCREASES # of Na+/K+ pumps
--->more ATP used --> more heat
generated




ENZYMES IN THE ORAL CAVITY


Give this one a try later!


Oral cavity and salivary glands: saliva moistens food to form bolus, salivary
amylase begins starch breakdown, teeth begin mechanical digestion




18. Name the parts of the renal tubule.


Give this one a try later!


Made of 3 connected segments:
1.)proximal convoluted tubule (PCT)
2.)nephron loop(Loop of Henle)
-descending limb
-ascending limb
3.)distal convoluted tubule (DCT)




32. Describe the regulation of K+ concentration in the urine


Give this one a try later!

, K+:
- both secreted & reabsorbed
- how much lost in urine regulated

PCT:
- 60-80% K+ reabsorbed
- K+amount depends on Na+ resorption
- More Na+ resorbed ,more water follows
increasing concentration of other solutes (K+,
Mg++, Ca++, PO43-)
-These solutes passively move down concentration gradient
-Nephron loop: 10-20% K+ resorbed
-Collecting tubule:
----Type A intercalated cells resorb K+
constantly, principal cells secrete varying
amount
---- Aldosterone causes K+ secretion, high
blood K+ stimulates aldosterone
secretion




1. What is Dalton's law? How do you calculate partial pressures for gases?


Give this one a try later!


Dalton's Law:
Total Pressure = sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases

P_total= P_1+ P_2+⋯
P_(individual gas)=P_total*Mole Fraction of that Gas




30. Which hormones regulate Na+ reabsorption and what are their effects?


Give this one a try later!
