What is physiology? I could ask you how physiology explains cause/ effects emphasized mechanisms, normal function, and is derived from scientific exps. Pathophysiology, comparative physiology, how do these subdisciplines aid in our understanding of normal human physiology? Three types of variables. FDA clinical trials, what happens in each? Erasistratus, Bernard, cannon, behring, pavlov, who are they what are they know for? Homeostasis, what is disease in the context of homeostasis? Foodback loops What are the feedback loop pathway parts? Stim, receptors, integrating center, effector. Be able to identify these in examples. What is negative feedback Antagonistic effectors, dynamic constancy Why is it important to take quantitative measurements? What is the normal range for blood glucose. What is positive feedback? Intrinsic and extrinsic regulation. Primary tissues. What muscle tissue type can you control? Do all skeletal muscles attach to a bone? Skeletal muscles are striated and multinucleated. Cardiac found where? Why are the intercalated disks important? What does smooth muscle surround Nervous tissue. Two types of nervous tissue, neurons and what else? Label a neuron Epithelial, identify the epithelial tissue based on a cartoonish image, what does simple and stratified epithelia usually cover, what location are they found? Characteristics of stratified nonkeratinized and keratinized epithelial Exocrine and endocrine glands. Types of sweat glands Identify bone and blood Characteristics of loose connective, dense regular, and dense irregular connective tissue What are osteocytes? What's an organ, what is a totipotent and pluripotent stem cell Identify the functions of the 11 organ systems of the body, digestive is not called digestive what is it called? Review portion: What is glycoproteins, lipoproteins? RNA functions, what is ATP? What is acidosis, alkalosis? Cholesterol, what is it? It's functions, what can it turn into? What is a phosphatase and kinase? What are isoenzymes What is product inhibition? What is phenylketonuria (PKU) specifically what does it result in an increase in the amount of... What does the brain like to rely on as an energy source, skeletal muscles at rest, liver, heart? What are integrins? Extracellular environment: what is the percent of water in cells, what of the remaining percent is in the plasma and interstitial fluid. Types of passive transport: what are the types I discussed? Know some examples of each, or be able to determine the type of passive transport from an example. What is a solution, what is osmosis, what are aquaporins, Know some of the basics of ficks law of diffusion. Basically what causes diffusion to happen faster or slower? What is osmotic pressure, in laymans terms. What is tonicity? Know the example about homeostasis of plasma concentrations, (this was after the tonicity slide) Know carrier-mediated transport, know facilitated diffusion of glucose. What GLUT are found in the CNS? What is active transport pumps? How many Na+ and K+ are moved either into or out of the cell every time the pump is activated? What is secondary active transport? What are the two types? Can you identify them in examples? Be able to understand chemical signaling between cells Be able to walk me through the G-protein cycle
