Formation of plugs What is the function of surfactant in the alveoli of the lungs? Prevention of alveoli collapse What describes the event of ovulation? Graafian follicle releases an ovum 00:03 01:17 What is involved in the destruction of ingested pathogens? Stomach acid When blood leaves the left ventricle, what does it enter next? Aorta The release of histamine is associated with what? Mast Cells, which triggers inflammatory response What is the measurement of percentage of red blood cells in whole blood? Hematrocrit What is a structure of the inner ear? Cochlea What's the function of Angiotensin II in the regulation of blood pressure? Vasoconstriction, when BP falls too low, Angiotensin II causes "vasoconstriction" which causes an increase in BP In wound healing, what plays a role in cleaning a wound of cellular debris? Neutrophils, involves phagocytosis What blood vessels carry deoxygenated blood to the right atrium of the heart? Superior & Inferior Vena Cavae In a normal functioning cardiovascular system, where does the heart beat originate? Sinoatrial Node (SA), "pace maker" After passing through glottis, inspired air travels to where next? Larynx What structure at the end of the ear canal vibrates when sound waves strike it? Tympanic Membrane What is located between the descending colon and rectum? Sigmoid Colon What is the iron-containing component of a red blood cell? Hemoglobin Calcium concentration in the blood is controlled by what gland? Parathyroid What type of tissue is under voluntary control? Skeletal What hormone regulates urine output? Anti-duretic from posterior pituitary to increase reabsorption of water & sodium from kidney's What is the function of the gallbladder? Storage until released to aid in digestion What is the function of the ureters? Urine from Kidney to Bladder Which part of the brain regulates hear rate, respiratory rate and BP? Medulla Oblongota What hormone is secreted by posterior pituitary gland? Antidiuretic Hormone What is associated with wound healing by PRIMARY intention? Minimal Scar Tissue In wound healing, what plays a role in cleaning a wound of cellular debris? Neutrophils, involves phagocytosis What is the result of sympathetic nervous system? Increased cardiac output What occurs as a result of the release of anti-diuretic hormone? Fluid volume in the body increases What pituitary hormone stimulates the process of gametogenesis?
