physioex 9.0 Review Sheet Exercise 4 Endocrine System Physiology Name: Kelly E. Fischer Lab Time/Date: 7:00 PM/Wednesday Activity 1 Metabolism and Thyroid Hormone Part 1 1 Which rat had the fastest basal metabolic rate (BMR)? The normal rat had the faster basal metabolic rate‚ because it was not missing its pituitary gland or its thyroid gland. 2 Why did the metabolic rates differ between the normal rat and the surgically altered rats? How well did the results compare with your prediction

Activity 1 1. Describe two variables that affect the rate of diffusion. a. There are alot of different variables or factors that can affect the rate of diffusion‚ for example: size of the molecule‚ shape of the molecule‚ concentration gradient‚ charge of the ions‚ temperature‚ environment‚ etc. The rate of the diffusion can increase as diffusion distance increases‚ concentration gradient increases‚ surface area increases‚ temperature increases‚ and many more. 2. Why do you think the urea was not

Review Sheet Results 7-1 1. What additional skeletal muscles are utilized in an ERV activity? In food expiration‚ abdominal wall muscles and the internal intercostal muscles contract. 2. What was the FEV1 (%) at the initial radius of 5.00 mm? 74% 3. What happened to the FEV1 (%) as the radius of the airways decreased? FEV1% decreased as the airway radius was decreased. 4. Explain why the results from the experiment suggest that there is an obstructive‚ rather than a restrictive‚ pulmonary

PhysioEx 9.0 Exercise 3 Neurophysiology of Nerve Impulses A C T I V I T Y 1 The Resting Membrane Potential 1. Explain why increasing extracellular K_ reduces the net diffusion of K_ out of the neuron through the K_ leak channels. Increasing the extracellular potassium reduces the concentration gradient‚ and less potassium diffuses out of the neuron and into the cell. 2. Explain why increasing extracellular K_ causes the membrane potential to change to a less negative value.

REVIEW SHEET EXERCISE 4 Endocrine System Physiology NAME: LAB TIME/DATE: Metabolism The following questions refer to Activity 1: Determining Baseline Metabolic Rates. 1. Which rat had the fastest baseline metabolic rate? The normal rat had the fastest baseline metabolic rate. 2. Compare the baseline metabolic rates for the thyroidectomized rat and the normal rat and explain your results. The normal rat’s baseline metabolic rate was faster than that of the thyroidectomized rat’s

Nancy Yedanapalli physio ex Activity 6 1. Explain why the larger waves seen on the oscilloscope represent ventricular contraction. a. The ventricular contraction is of greater force than the atrial contraction‚ since the ventricular contraction functions to send blood throughout the entire body (systemic circulation)‚ where as the contraction of the atrium send blood only to the lungs and rest of the the heart (pulmonary circulation). 2. Explain why the amplitude
