What is Glycogen?
extra glucose
Main Storages locations of glycogen (x2)
1. skeletal muscles
2. liver
Where are fatty acids and lactic acids processed?
Liver
what does processed lactic acid turn into?
glucose
What are fatty acids to supply the brain with?
energy
ANP
atrial naturetic peptide
ANP causes... vasodilation or vasoconstriction?
vasodilation
How does ANP influence the kidneys?
1|Page
,causes it to not reabsorb water
- decreasing blood volume
- decreasing blood pressure
How does ANP reduce BP?
1. directly w/vasodilation
2. kidney function--> Decreasing Plasma levels
ANG II
Angiotensin
Is angiotensin a good... vasodilator or vasoconstrictor?
vasoconstrictor
______ blood pressure, _____ resistance, _____ MAP
increase, increase, increase
ANG II impact on Kidney
causes water reabsorption
What happens to BP with ANG II?
It stays where its at
Why does ANG II cause BP to stay?
- water in blood to begin with
- kidney filters it out
- kidney is told to put H2O back in
{no H2O is lost or gained}
T/F
Kidneys can make their own water when needed
false
What do the kidneys help you do with water?
maintain blood volume (with existing amount of water)
Can the kidneys increase blood volume?
Nope!
