Cardiovascular System | Heart & blood vessels |
Lymphatic System | Overflow system- lymphatic plexus, vessels, lymph nodes & lymphoid organisms |
Distributing Artery | Probably this if it has a name- tunica media is mostly smooth muscle |
Vascular smooth muscle fibres... | Are under autonomic control |
Sympathetic Activity | Causes vasoconstriction/vasodilation |
Vasa vesorum | Blood vessels for artery walls |
Conducting Artery | Tunica media contains more elastic tissue than smooth muscle |
End Artery | Don't end in capilliaries but end in arteries |
Anostamosis | A cross connection between two arteries-regulate blood flow between them |
Arterioles/Meta-Arterioles | Thick muscle & small lumen |
Precapillaric sphincters | Control blood flow to the capillaries |
Veins contain .... to help maintain pressure | Valves, diastole, muscles squeeze veins |
Single Squamous Epithelium | Found in lungs and muscles |
Fenestrated Capillaries | Allow hormone transfer |
Fenestrated Capilliaries are found in... | Found in kidneys/endocrine glands |
Sinusoids | Larger holes to allow passage of larger molecules |
Sinusoids are found in... | Bone marrow and spleen |
Major Actor | Prime mover that initiates joint movement |
Synergist | Assists prime mover |
Fixators | Stabilizes the prime mover |
Antagonist | Reverses the action of prime mover |
Motor Unit | Single motor unit and all the muscle fibers it stimulates |
Damage to nerve | Causes muscle paralysis |
Motor Unit Recruitment | More contraction requires more motor units |
Powerful movements require | More, larger motor units- strength required, not precision |
Precise Movement | Smaller motor units- less power but more muscle control |
Satellite cells | The regenerative cells of the muscle |
Damage to connective tissue leads to... | Storage |
What causes scarring? | Collagen is put down an irregular manner |
Damage to the epidermis causes... | No damage |
Damage to the dermis causes... | Scarring |
Muscle regeneration | Limited due to small amount of satellite cells |
When damaged, muscle cells increase in... | Size, not number |
Hypertrophy | Increase in muscle cell size |
Skin hyperplasm | Increase in skin cell number |
Nerva Pathology caused by... | Stroke/viral damage |
Bells Palsy usually effects | Facial nerve (one of two) |
Symptoms of Bells Palsy | Smooth forehead, drooping eyebrow and side of mouth |
Disease Atrophy | Loss of muscle size due to disuse i.e. through a fracture |
Myastheria Gravis | Autoimmune disorder attacking Ach receptors |
Neuromuscular Junction Pathology | Effects precise rather than gross movement |
Muscular Pathology i.e. | Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy |
Dystrophin gene mutation found on | X allele (recessive) |
Dystrophin effects... | Larger muscles first |
Test for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy | A child will use their hands for support as they stand |
Cardiac Muscle Traits | Intercalated Disks, Shorter fibres, more mitochondria & lower Ca2+ reserves |
Syncytium | A single cell/cytoplasmic mass formed by nuclei splitting or cell fusion |
Cardiac muscle has greater capacity for... | Continuous contraction |
Autorythmic fibres | Muscle fibres capable of contracting without stimulation |
Smooth muscle | Spindle shaped involuntary muscle |
Smooth muscle movements | Are slow but sustained |
Irregular muscle filaments are attached to ... in smooth muscle | Dense bodies |
Smooth muscle is triggered by... | Autonomic signalling, chemicals or mechanical events |
Abdomial Aorta | Found in abdomen, feeds liver, stomach and spleen |
Common Iliac Artery | Provides blood to the leg |
Why is the aorta close to the spine? | Protection |
Brachiocephalic Aorta | First branch of the aortic arch |
Subclaven artery | Provides blood to the arm |
Common carotid artery | Provides blood (one on each side) to the brain up the neck |
Coeliac artery | Provides spleen, liver and stomach branches |
Superior mesentric artery | Provides small intestine |
Name the aorta's three parts | Ascending Aorta, Aortic Arch & Descending Thoracic Aorta |
Where most blood is found | Vein |
Internal/External Lamia | Allows artery to stretch and avoid rupture due to pressure |
Lacking in veins and capillaries, found only in arteries | Elastic Lamina |
Brachiocephalic artery branches into... | Subclaven and common carotid arteries |
