    Study Notes

    Cell Physiology

    • Mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell, responsible for producing ATP.

    Cell Division

    • Mitosis is a type of cell division.
    • Interphase occurs before mitosis or meiosis and consists of:
      • Preparation for cell division
      • DNA replication
      • Cell growth and preparation for division

    Cell Division Types

    • Meiosis produces:
      • 1 egg cell and 3 polar bodies in females (F:23)
      • 4 sperm cells in males (M:23)
    • The purpose of meiosis is to reduce the number of chromosomes by half.

    Nerve Physiology

    • Action potential is a key event in nerve function.

    Muscle Physiology

    • Muscle contraction involves:
      • Voluntary muscle contraction
      • Action potential in nerve
      • Muscle contraction events:
        • Excitation-contraction coupling
        • Muscle fiber contraction

    Organic Compounds

    • Examples of organic compounds include:
      • Fructose
      • Galactose
      • Glucose

    Ion Channels

    • Potassium is an important ion involved in nerve function.
