The 2000-Meter Row: A Case in Homeostasis Adapted from the National Center for Case Study Teaching in Science* by Nathan Strong At the start 1. Recall that Jim’s heart and respiratory rate are increased‚ he was sweating and that his mouth was dry before the raise began. Explain what is happening to his autonomic nervous system (including which division is the most active) and specify exactly how those ANS responses are creating the symptoms noted. What changes do you think are occurring

Unit 3 Lecture Study Guide 1. List the 4 primary tissue types and give the general characteristics and functions of each one. Epithelium- The epithelium protects us from the outside world. Skin‚ absorbs. Stomach and intestinal lining‚ filters. The kidney‚ secretes. Forming of glands‚ closely attached to each other forming a protective barrier‚ always has one free surface open to outside the body or inside an internal organ‚ has no blood vessels but can soak up nutrients from blood vessels in connective

Laboratory – Muscle Physiology A. MUSCLE TONUS Observations‚ Report and Conclusion: A. Define muscle tonus and give its importance * Muscle tonus refers to a state of slight muscular contraction maintained by synchronous impulses of low frequency‚ discharged by the spinal motor neurons. * Reflex in nature. * Muscle tonus is a small amount of tension in the muscle due to weak‚ involuntary contractions of its motor units. Muscle tonus is important in a sense that it governs the

BTEC Lv. 2 in Health and Social Care Unit 5: Anatomy and Physiology for Health and Social Care Task 1: P1: Outline the functions of the main cell components P2: Outline the structure of the main tissues of the body P3: Outline the gross structure of all the main body systems. Cell (or plasma) membrane The electron microscope shows the cell membrane to be a phosphor-lipid-protein-bi-layer. Small‚ fatty molecules in bi-layers are the lipids. Larger protein molecules are inserted at intervals

Gross Anatomy of the Muscular System Exercise 1: A.) A muscle that is a prime mover/agonist for pivoting the head is the trapezius muscle. B.) One prime mover/agonist for extension of the head is the sternocleidomastoid muscle. C.) One muscle that is a prime mover/agonist for depression of the mandible is the suprahyoid muscle and one muscle that is the antagonist for depression of the mandible is the infrahyoid muscle. D.) One muscle that is a prime mover for smiling is the zygomaticus

How Energy is used in the Body (M1) We get chemical energy from food we eat and oxygen that we breathe –we need this to get energy into a usable form to be used by the cells Glucose + Oxygen ----------------> Carbon Dioxide + Water (C6H12O6) (O2) Metabolism (CO2) (H2O) (1C6H12O6) (6O2) In Cells (6CO2) (6H20) Metabolism is the process of getting chemical energy from larger molecules in food and breaking them down into smaller

results in the Lab Report. You answered: 426 ml O2/hr 1i. Now that you have calculated the oxygen consumption per hour for this rat‚ you can calculate the metabolic rate per kilogram of body weight with the following equation (note that you need to convert the weight data from grams to kilograms to use this equation). Metabolic rate = (ml O2/hr)/(weight in kg) = ml O2/kg/hr Enter the metabolic rate in the field below and then click Submit Data to display your results in the Lab Report. You answered:
