BIOL 3442: Test 1

6 lvls of physiology; lysosomes
sub-cellular, cellular, tissue, organ, organ system; cell's digestive system w/ hydrolytic enzymes for breaking down organic molecules
Flip
peroxisomes (3)
oxidizes toxins, removes intracellular O2, & breaks fatty acids down into acetyl CoA
Flip
homeostatic regulation; positive feedback
adjustment of physiological systems to maintain stability; has a destabilizing effect, so doesn't result in homeostasis
Flip
3 components of homeostatic regulation
receptor, integration/control center to receive & process info, & effector to respond to control center's commands
Flip
reset system (2)
negative feedback system in which set pt is adjusted; can be temporary (eg. fever), permanent (eg. sexual maturity), or cyclical (eg. hibernation)
Flip
hierarchial control of homeostasis (3)
cellular < intrinsic (self-serving tissues or organs) < extrinsic (factors external to organs, serve organism as a whole)
Flip
conformers; what physiological mechanisms often depend on; Krogh principle
don't adjust to changing environmental conditions; body size; for any problems, there is some animal(s) of choice that is optimal for studying it
Flip
cytosol vs cytoplasm; 2 cytoskeleton components; 4 components of extracellular matrix
goop inside cell vs everything inside cell; filaments & microtubules; glycoprotein complexes, collagen, connecting glycoproteins, integrins
Flip
3 cell junctions
desmosomes (bound w/ rivets), tight junctions (wall-to-wall in verts only), & gap junctions (hydrophilic channels in b/n)
Flip
where mitochondria DNA is fr; skeleton fence model
Mom's DNA, not nucleus' DNA; came after fluid mosaic model & says membrane proteins are constrained by being tethered to or limited by membrane skeleton
Flip
glycolysis' 2 phases; Krebs cycle products
investment of 2 ATP & payoff w/ net total of 2 ATP & pyruvate for Krebs cycle; makes more potential nrg than glycolysis & ATP, NADH, & FADH2
Flip
osmolarity (2)
measure of osmoles of solute per vol (eg. NaCl is 2 Osm fr Na+ & Cl¯, considers concs of both membrane-penetrating & non-penetrating solutes
Flip
tonicity; when osmosis stops
only considers conc of non-penetrating solutes; when hydrostatic pressure = osmotic pressure
Flip
cytokines (2); what happens to pyruvate in Krebs cycle
regulatory peptides generally involved in development or immunity that can be short or long-ranged, can be made by any cell; oxidized into acetyl CoA
Flip
Na-K pump
3 Na+ fr inside bind to pump; ATP binds & leaves behind a P to change pump's shape to out Na+, making it receptive to 2 K+ binding; shape changes to let K+ in
Flip
Cl¯ conc in reln to cell; ligands
higher outside of membrane; intracellular chemical messengers that req receptors
Flip
paracrines (2) neurotranmitters (2)
short ranged, reach target cells via diffusion; short ranged, released by neurons to target a neuron, muscle, or gland in response to an electrical signal
Flip
hormones; neurohormones
secreted by endocrine glands into circulatory system for long range; secreted by neurosecretory neurons into circulatory system for long range
Flip
# of Golgis in ea cell; pheromones
varies but is usually 1, mults are often in secretory cells; released into enviro by glands to target those of same species
Flip
parathyroid glands (2); pineal gland
2 pairs embedded in thyroid, regulate blood Ca & bone metabolism; releases melatonin fr middle of brain
Flip
adrenal glands (5)
outer cortex releases corticosteroids to regulate metabolism, salt/water balance, immunity, & sexual function; inner medulla releases catecholamines
Flip
pancreas (3)
releases digestive enzymes as exocrine gland, releases insulin & glucagon as endocrine gland
Flip
ICF; ECF (2)
intracellular fluid dom by K+ & organic molecules; extracellular fluid made up of vascular & tissue (interstitial) components
Flip
insensible loss (2)
sweat that evaporates w/o notice, can lose up to 0.5 L of water this way;
Flip
sweat (4)
liq fr plasma exits sweat glands, blood's increased osmolarity is replenished by interstitial fluid, which is replenished by ICF, which is replenished by external water
Flip
low sweat vs high sweat
more K+ than Na+ & Cl¯, time for water to be reabsorbed osmotically vs ion lvls sim to primary secretion & lots of water
Flip
sources of fluid loss; metabolism produces...
0.5 L breathing, up to 3 L sweating, ~1.5 L urinating, 0.1 L in feces; 110 g of water fr 100 g of fat, w/ extra wt fr O2
Flip
hemorrhage
arteriole end's hydrostatic pressure is normally > osmotic pressure so that fluid flows out; blood loss ⇒ fluid flows into arterioles
Flip
ADH (3)
aka vasopressin, released by posterior pituitary when stim by hypothalamus, ↑ water reabsorption in kidneys
Flip
aldosterone; amt of water needed to excrete urea; polydipsia
released by adrenal glands to ↑ kidney's Na+ reabsorption; ≥400 mL; too much water
Flip
water poisoning (2)
can lead to acute congestive cardiac failure where backed up L ventricle → pulmonary edema → suffocation, diluted electrolytes ⇒ neuronal failure
Flip
osmoconformers (3)
animals restricted to where they can live b/c they don't osmoregulate; internal osmotic pressure = enviro's; marine inverts & chondrichthyes
Flip
5 osmolytes
carbs, free AAs, methylamine solutes (eg. TMAO, protein stabilizer for countering urea), urea, methylsulfonium solutes (eg. DMSP in corals)
Flip
2 kinds of osmoregulators
hypo-osmotic (marine bony fish & some crustaceans) & hyperosmotic (freshwater animals)
Flip
hypo-osmotic regulators (3)
maintains internal osmolarity of 300-400 mOsm, counters water loss fr skin & excess ion entry fr drinking by active ion depuration via gills & conc urine secretion
Flip
hyperosmotic regulators (4)
maintains internal osmolarity of 250-300 mOsm; counters excess water entry fr skin & ion loss by not drinking, actively taking up ions through gills, & secreting dilute urine
Flip
pH formula & where it's higher in the body; acid-base balance formula (3)
= -log[H+], arterial blood where H2CO3 happens fr CO2 fr cells; CO2 + H2O ↔ H2CO3 ↔ H+ + HCO3¯, where H2CO3¯ = carbonic acid & HCO3¯ = bicarbonate
Flip
3 ways pH is regulated
buffers (CO2-HCO3¯ in ECF; peptide & protein, phosphate, & hemoglobin in ICF), respiration, & excretion
Flip
henderson-hasselbalch eqn; regulation via breathing
pH = pKa + log([base]/[acid]), where acid ∝ [CO2] & base ∝ [HCO3¯]; breathing ↑ when blood becomes acidic to drop [CO2] & v.v.
Flip
respiratory acidosis; metabolic acidosis
hypoventilation ⇒ ↑ in [CO2]; diabetes, diarrhea, or strenuous exercise ⇒ ↓ in [HCO3¯]
Flip
respiratory alkalosis; metabolic alkalosis;
hyperventilation ⇒ ↓ in [CO2]; vomiting ⇒ ↑ in [HCO3¯]
