Activity 1 1. Increasing extracellular K+ reduces the net diffusion of K+ out of the neuron through the K+ leak channels because the membrane is permeable to K+ ions. Therefore‚ the K+ ions will diffuse down its concentration gradient from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. 2. Increasing extracellular K+ causes the membrane potential to change to a less negative value because the K+ ions diffuse out across the membrane. My results went well compared to my prediction

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

Exercise 7 Review Sheet Definitions/Explanations: Respiration: The entire process of gas exchange in the body; it includes each of the following: 1. Pulmonary Ventilation (AKA breathing): The follow of air into and out of the lungs. The result of muscle contraction of the diaphragm. Ventilation consists of two parts: a. Inspiration: The process that occurs when atmospheric gas is drawn into the lungs by way of contraction of the diaphragm which causes expansion of the thoracic

chemical stimulation. I would want to see what different chemicals would cause an action potential versus chemicals that would not cause an action potential. And‚ whether different amounts of a particular chemical would affect the action potential. 7. Why does the addition of sodium chloride elicit an action potential? Hint: Think about the sodium permeability of the neuron (Figure 3.2e). The addition of sodium chloride will increase the sodium ion concentration outside the cell membrane. The sodium

Glomerular Filtration Activity 1: Effect of Arteriole Diameter on Glomerular Filtration 1. Compare this data with your baseline data. How did increasing the afferent arteriole radius affect glomerular filtration rate? >>Increasing the afferent arteriole radius pushed the glomerular pressure‚ the glomerular filtration rate‚ and the volume of urine to be higher than the baseline data. Increasing the afferent arteriole radius increased the glomerular filtration rate. 2. Under
