Features of Pocket Companion
- Compacts essential physiological principles for medical study.
- Serves as a quick reference for students to review major concepts efficiently.
- Highlights significant physiological processes, aiding rapid comprehension.
Homeostasis in Physiology
- Homeostasis maintains a stable internal environment through organ and tissue functions.
- The body constantly regulates the composition of extracellular fluid.
- Key mechanisms involve both the circulatory system and cellular interactions.
Extracellular Fluid Transport
- Blood circulates to transport extracellular fluid in two stages:
- Blood movement through the circulatory system.
- Fluid exchange between blood capillaries and cells.
- The circulatory system ensures continuous mixing of internal fluids.
Ciliary Movement
- Ciliary movement is observed in respiratory airways and uterine tubes.
- In respiratory pathways, cilia clear mucus at approximately 1 cm/min.
- In the uterine tubes, cilia facilitate the transport of the ovum toward the uterus.
- Requires ATP and proper ionic conditions (magnesium and calcium).
Genetic Control of Protein Synthesis
- Genes direct protein synthesis, thereby influencing cell function.
- Proteins act as enzymes and structural components.
- Each gene is a double-stranded DNA molecule that dictates RNA formation.
Mechanism of Protein Synthesis
- Messenger RNA (mRNA) is synthesized, which guides protein assembly at ribosomes.
- Transfer RNA (tRNA) matches specific amino acids to the corresponding codons on mRNA.
- Peptide linkages form amino acid chains, resulting in protein molecules once a stop codon is reached.
Regulation of Gene Expression
- Gene function is regulated from DNA transcription to protein formation.
- The promoter region of a gene plays a critical role in controlling gene expression.
- Regulation determines the types and proportions of proteins and enzymes produced within cells.
