Did the PCO2 level change during the course of normal breathing? If so‚ how? No‚ it stayed at 40mm Hg Activity 2a: Hyperventilation – Run 1 1. At 20 seconds‚ pH = 7.43 2. At 40 seconds‚ pH = 7.52 3. At 60 seconds‚ pH = 7.67 4. Maximum pH = 7.68 5. Did the pH level of the blood change at all during this run? If so‚ how

Did the PCO2 level change during the course of normal breathing? If so‚ how? No it did not change either. Activity 2a: Hyperventilation – Run 1 1. At 20 seconds‚ pH = 7.48 2. At 40 seconds‚ pH = 7.52 3. At 60 seconds‚ pH = 7.65 4. Maximum pH = 7.65 5. Did the pH level of the blood change at all during this run? If so‚ how?

does this tracing compare to the one that was generated at the threshold voltage? The tracing travel in the same fashion but the tracing were different with an increase threshold voltage 4. What reason can you give for the change? Increase voltage 5. Record this maximal voltage here: 6.0 V Activity 2: Mechanical Stimulation 1. When the glass rod is touching the nerve‚ what do you see on the oscilloscope screen? The nerve’s action potential to stimuli 2. How does this tracing compare with

not alter the membrane potential in the resting neuron because the Na+ channels were mostly closed. 4. Na+ and K+ both have a relative permeability of 0 voltage outside a resting neuron and a relative negative permeability inside a resting neuron. 5. A change in Na+ or K+ conductance would affect the resting membrane potential because if the membrane is permeable to a particular ion‚ that ion will diffuse down its concentration gradient from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower

PhysioEX notes Autorhythmicity- heart’s ability to trigger its own contractions Phase O- a lot like depolarization in neuronal action potentials. Sodium channels open‚ increase of sodium INTO cell. Phase 1- sodium channels close‚ potassium channels close‚ decrease in potassium and sodium. Calcium channels open‚ increase of calcium into cell. Phase 2- Plateau phase‚ membrane still depolarized (contract). Potassium channels closed‚ L-type calcium channels stay open. Lasts 0.2 seconds/200

PHYSIO EX 1 Simulating Dialysis (Simple Diffusion) 1. Describe two variables that affect the rate of diffusion. The temperature of the solutions and the difference in concentration of the ion or molecule between the sides of the membrane 2. Why do you think the urea was not able to diffuse through the 20 MWCO membrane? How well did the results compare with your prediction? Since the chemical formula for urea is (NH2)2CO and its molecular weight is about 60. It will not diffuse through the

Give one possible explanation for this. 2. Living at high elevations will cause a person’s hematocrit to ( *increase / decrease ). Explain your answer. 3. Long-term athletic training will cause a person’s hematocrit to ( *increase / decrease ). 4. What is anemia? Condition where inadequate

unheated rod compare to that generated with the heated rod? The action potential generated with the unheated rod was similar to that generated with the heated rod. The heated rod made a slightly larger action potential than the unheated rod. 5. Describe the types of stimuli that generated an action potential. The different stimuli that generate an action potential are electrical‚ chemical‚ mechanical‚ and thermal. 6. If you were to spend a lot of time studying nerve physiology in the
