Activity 1 Pre-Lab Quiz K+ inside a cell = 150 mM; K+ outside a cell = 5 mM Na+ inside a cell = 5 mM; Na+ outside a cell = 150 mM Stop & Think question What is the polarity of the resting membrane potential (voltage)? Negative What does it mean that the voltage just inside the membrane is negative? B Membrane of most cells contains K+ leak channels…..b What will happen to the resting membrane potential if the extracellular K+ concentration is increase? Less negative What happens

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 20 MWCO membrane because it does not ionize. 3. Describe the results of the attempts to diffuse glucose and albumin through the 200 MWCO membrane. How well did the results compare with your prediction? Glucose will diffuse through the 200 MWCO membrane because its MW is 180. The MW of the protein

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

diffuse out across the membrane. My results went well compared to my prediction because I predicted that the resting membrane potential would become less negative. 3. The extracellular Na+ did 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

Activity 1: Electrical Stimulation 1. Do you see any kind of response on the oscilloscope screen? NO 2. What was the threshold voltage‚ or the voltage at which you first saw an action potential? 3.0 V 3. 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:

increased the glomerular filtration rate. 2. Under these conditions‚ does the fluid flow through the nephron? >>No! No urine was collected which indicates no fluid flows through the nephron. 3. What is the glomerular filtration rate? >>The glomerular filtration rate is 0 which means the glomeruli are not carrying out any filtration task. 4. How does it compare to your baseline data‚ and why? >>The glomerular filtration rate in baseline data is 124.99 which
