Study Notes
Blood Supply to the Liver
- The liver receives approximately 1.5 quarts of blood per minute from the hepatic artery and hepatic portal vein.
Kidney Collecting Ducts
- Collecting ducts are found in the renal pelvis of the kidney.
Renal Hormone and Blood Pressure
- Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) is secreted by the hypothalamus when blood pressure decreases to promote water reabsorption.
Ovulation Stimulating Hormone
- Luteinizing Hormone (LH) stimulates ovulation.
Pregnancy Hormones
- Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) is elevated during pregnancy.
Heart Valves
- The tricuspid valve is located between the right atrium and the right ventricle.
- During ventricular systole, the atrioventricular valves are closed.
Cardiac Output and Blood Pressure
- When cardiac output increases, blood pressure increases.
Spinal Nerves
- Spinal nerves carry mixed information (both sensory and motor).
Body Temperature Regulation in Water
- Water has a higher heat capacity than air, causing a person to lose body temperature faster in water than in air.
Cell Membrane Properties
- The cell membrane is selectively permeable.
Cellular Respiration Substrate
- Glucose is broken down during cellular respiration.
Membrane Lining Body Cavities
- Serous membranes line body cavities and cover organs within those cavities.
Muscle Tissue Types
- Cardiac muscle has interlocking cells for efficient contraction.
