1Nervous Systems
mechanism: neural
action: fast
effect: brief
example: reflexes
2endocrine
mechanism: hormonal
action: slow
effect: long-lasting
example: puberty
3endocrinology
scientific styidy of hormones and endocrine organs
4hormones control
reproduction
growth and development
body defenses
homeostasis
metabolism
5hormones are
produced by specialized cells
screted into extracellular fluids (blood/lymph)
transported by blood / lympth to target cells
change activity of target cells
6hormones are made of
1. aa - proteins (insulin), peptides, amines
2. steroids ie estrogen .. originate from cholestrol
3. prostaglandins = very active lipids acting locally @ site of release
7hormone action
-affects only target tissues or organs
-hormones bind to specific receptor proteins in PM of target cells
- hormone binding changes target cell activity
- hormone and target cells = like enzyme and substrate
8hormones change target cell activity
make cells do 1 more of these
- undergo mitosis
- change PM permeabilibity or electrical state
- syntehsize proteins ie enzymes
- activate or deactivate enzymes
- secrete substances ie other hormones
9steroid hormones activate genes directly
1. steroid hormone passes thru plasma
2. enters nucleus
3. binds to specific receptor proteins (in nucleus)
4. hormone receptor complex binds to specific site on DNA
5. switches "on" certain genes causing
6. protein synthesis
10non-steroid hormones use 2nd messenger
1. non-steroid hormone (1st messenger) binds to PM receptor
2. activated receptor triggers series of rxns that activates an enzyme
3. enzymes causes rxn to produce 2nd messenger molecule, ie cyclic AMP
4. cAMP triggers more changes
11control of hormone release
negative feeback loops maintain hormone levels in blood
stimulus = low hormone level in blood triggers release of more hormone from endocrine gland
hormone releases stop when level returns to human
12which of these describes the endocrine system
a. involves neurons
b. fast acting
c. reflxes are an effect
d. long-lasting effects
e. none of these is correct
d. long-lasting effects
13endocrine glands release
1. hormonal
2. humoral
3. neuron
14hormonal stimulus of endocrine glands
most common type:
tropic hormones: from other organs elsewehere in body stimulate endocrine glands
ie 2 gonado tropins
FSH = follucle stimulating hormone
LH = luteinizing hormone
15FSH & LH from pituitary gland in brain stimualte:
ovaries and produce estrogens
testes to produce androgens
16humoral stimulus of endocrine glands
changing levels of specific ions and nutrients in body fluids stimulate endocrine glands
17humoral
involves body fluids
ie blood and lymph
ie parathyroid hormone and calcitonin and insulin and glucagon
18parathyroid hormone & calcitonin
produced in response to changing blood Ca2+ levels
19insulin and glucagon
produced in reponse to chaning blood glucose lvels
20which of these is not controlled by hormones
a. metabolism
b. reflexes
c. homeostasis
d. growth and dvmpt
e. reproduction
reflexes
21neutral stimulus of endocrine glands
mostly controlled by sympathetic division of autonomic nervous system ... fight or flight
22epinephrine and norepinephrine
released by adrenal medulla
23endocrine organs
pituitary gland
thyroid gland
pineal gland
adrenal glands
parathyroid glands
24more endocrine organs
hypothalamus
thymus
pancreas
gonads = ovaries and testes
25true endocrine glands (no ducts)

- anterior pituitary
thyroid
adrenals
parathyroid
26mixed endocrine and exocrine ducts glands
pancrease
gonads
27the 2nd step of steroid hormone action:
a. hormone enters target cells
b. H binds to specific receptor protein in nuclues
c. h enters nucleus
d. protein syntehsis occurs
e. hormone receptor complex binds to specific site on DNA
C. H enters nucleus
28these hormones are regulated by blood glucose level
e. insulin and glucagon
29blood transporters
nutrients
waste products
hormones
respiratory gases o2 and co2
303 types of formed elements in blood
rbc, wbc, platlets
31rbc
function= transport o2 and co2
each cells has ~ 250 million Hg protein molecules that transport o2
5 million rbc / uL of blood
32hematocrit
% of blood volume that is rbc
33anemia
reduced o2 carrying ability of blood due to 1 or both of these
low # of rbc low hct
low # of functional hgb in rbc
34sickle cell anemia
abnormal-shaped hgb and rbc
lowers o2 carrying ability
hereditary disorder due to just one dna mutation
35polycythemia
abnormally high # of RBC
thickens blood and slows blood flow
blood doping
36wbc
function = defense and immunity
high wbc = infection
37leukemia
BM becomes cancerous
produces excess immature wbc
lowers o2 carryinng ability = anemia
38granulocytes
granules in cytoplasm, lobed nuclei
neutrophils
eos
baso
39agranulocytes
no granules , nonlobed nuclei
lymphocytes
mono
40platlets
cells fragments
function = blood clotting
41the sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system regulates these hormones
epinephrine and noreprinephrine
42antigens
substances body may recognize as foreign and may be attached by immune system
43antibodies
recognize antigens and mark them for destruction
44blood typing
1 drop of blood mixed with anti-A 2nd drop with anti B, with anti Rh type by observing agglutination + or no rxn -
45Rb blood group
most ppl in USA are Rh+
problem if transfusing Rh+ blood into Rh- persion
problem NOT w/ 1st tranfusion bc takes time for Rh- persion to make anti-Rh antibodies
by 2nd transfusion Rh- recipeitns anti-Rh antibodies will attack any Rh+ blood received in future
46Rh issue during pregnancy
Rh- mother carrying Rh+ baby may be problem for unborn child
1st pregnancy = no problem
Rh- moms immune system can start makinig anti-Rh antibodies after 1st birth
solution shot of RhoGAM during 1st pregnancy
47a pt w/ blood type B blood can receive blood from the type(s_
B & O
48Rh factor
Rh- ---> Rh+
Rh- ------> Rh-
assuming Rh- donor has not been exposed to Rh antigen so best to donate only same Rh type
49which of these has the function of blood clotting
platlets
50cardiovascular system
function - transport

58diastole
2 ventricles relax
59cardiac cycle part 1: mid-to-late diastole
low pressure in heart
blood fills atria and ventricles
semilunar valves closed
tricuspid / mitral valves open
atria contract to force blood into ventricles
60cardiac cycle 2: systole
ventricles contract = high pressure in heart
tricuspid / mitral valves shit = 1st sound lub
ejected blood pushes semilunar valves open
blood ejected from ventricles thru pulomnary trunk and aorta
atria starts to refill
61cardiac cycle 3: early diastole

72Instrinsic stimulation of heart contraction
1. Sinoatrial SA node
2. ---> AV node (atria contract)
3. ---> AV bundle / bundle of HiS
4. --> R & L bundle branches
5. Purkinje fibers (ventricles contract)
- Cardiac muscle depolarizes in 1 direction = from atria to ventricles
Ventricles contract to eject blood up and out of the heart
73cardiac ouput
- Cardiac output (CO) = volume of blood heart pumps out /min
- Stroke volume (SV) = volume of blood pumped by 1 contraction (heartbeat)
- Heart rate (HR) = heartbeats / min
- CO = SV * HR
70 mL / beat x 70 beats / min = 4900 mL/min
74cardiac output CO
volume of blood heart pumps out / min
75stroke volume SV
volume of blood pumped by 1 contraction
76heart rate HR
heartbeats / min
77CO = SV * HR
70 mL / beat x 70 beats /min = 4900 mL/min
78Starling's law of the heart
○ The more cardiac muscle is stretched, the greater its force of contraction
Critical factor controlling SV
79Venous return
SV rises or falls w/ the volume of venous return
volume of blood returned to heart thru veins
○ Exercise : greater venous return --> greater SV
80Extrinsic Regulation of Heart Rate by…
1. Neural (ANS= Automatic Nervous System)
- Sympathetic nervous system
- Parasympathetic nervous system
2. Hormones
Physical factors (ie heavy exercise )
81Blood vessels = the vascular system
- Transport blood to the tissues and back to heart
- Arteries carry blood away from heart
§ Rule = arteries away!
- Capillaries for exchange b/w tissues and blood
§ O2 and CO2
§ Nutrients and waste products
Veins returns blood to heart
82Arteries:
- Narrower lumen = inside fluid space
- So: high pressure
§ Thicker walls to withstand pressure changes
§ Thinker smooth muscle layer to adjust pressure by changing lumen diameter
83Veins:
Wider lumen --> so : low pressure
Thinner walls
Thinner smooth muscle layer
Valves to prevent blood backflow
84BP Gradient
Blood pressure in vessels decreases as blood travels farther from heart, through systemic circuit
- High BP in arteries closer to heart in circuit
- Lower in capillaries
Lowest in veins farther from heart in circuit
85Pulse
- Middle finger on soft spot at:
- R or L Radial artery
- R or L Carotid artery
- Arteries have pulse b/c they have high pressure … veins don't
86 The 1st heart sounds occurs when:
A. Ventricles contract
B. Semilunar valves close
C. Atria contract
D. Tricuspid / mitral valves close
None of these is correct
D
87Veins: values and muscular pumps
- Low pressure in veins … so how does blood flow UP from feet back to heart, against gravity
- Solution:
- valves in veins
- Muscular pumps = leg muscles contract to force venous blood back up to heart
88Capillaries
- Thin walls = 1 cell layer
- Lining of wall = simple squamous ET = flat cells
- Allows exchange b/w blood and tissue cells thru capillary walls
- Structure matches function!
- Form capillary beds
89Capillary Beds
- 2 types of capillaries
1. Vascular shunt
2. True capillaries
- Entrances to true capillaries guarded by precapillary sphincters = smooth muscles
- When precapillary sphincters closed: blood bypasses that capillary bed thru vascular shunt
- Conserves heat when body is cold
90 Which of these does NOT occur during systole?
A. Tricuspid & mitral valves shut
B. Blood fills ventricles
C. Semilunar valves open
D. Ventricles contract
High pressure in heart
B
91Blood pressure
Pressure of blood against inner walls of blood vessels
92
Measuring BP
- Use large artery ie brachial artery in arm
- Systolic pressure = during ventricular contraction
- Diastolic pressure = ventricles relaxed
- Expressed as systolic over diastolic pressure
120 / 80 mm Hg = average adult BP
