Energy obtained from hydrolysis of ATP drives primary active transport, while energy stored in an ionic concentration gradient drives secondary active transport. Difficulty: mediumFeedback: 3.3 62. Compare mitosis to meiosis. Ans: Mitosis is the division of nuclear contents of the cell. Mitosis is preceded by replication of DNA. During mitosis the two copies of DNA are separated into two different cells. Those two cells are identical to the original cell. Mitosis occurs in somatic cells and is necessary for growth and repair. Meiosis is the type of cell division that produces the gametes, the ova and sperm. Just as in mitosis, replication of DNA occurs before meiosis so that each chromosome is doubled. However, during meiosis, there are several differences from mitosis. During prophase I of meiosis, the homologous chromosome synapse and may exchange portions in a process called crossing-over. By the end of meiosis I, the homologs have been separated into different cells. These new cells are called haploid because they only contain one of the two homologs. Immediately after meiosis I, another round of division occurs and separates the sister chromatids in each cell. At the end of meiosis II, there are four cells. Each of those cells contains just 1 copy of each chromosome. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 3.7Testbank Chapter 4. The Tissue Level of Organization Multiple Choice 1.

Ans: Arrector pili are a smooth muscle that extends from the superficial dermis of the skin to the side of the hair follicle. In its normal position, hair emerges at an angle to the surface of the skin. Under physiological or emotional stress, such as cold or fright, autonomic nerve endings stimulate the arrector pili muscle to contract, which pulls the hair shafts perpendicular to the skin surface. This action causes “goose bumps” because the skin around the shaft forms slight elevations. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 5.2 Multiple Choice 18.

The skin thermoregulates in two major ways. The skin does this by liberating sweat at its surface and by adjusting the flow of blood in the dermis. In response to low temperatures, production of sweat is decreased to conserve heat. The skin covers the body and provides protection by keratin, lipids, secretions like oil and sweat and immunological protection. The skin can detect and respond to cutaenous sensations. The skin acts in secretion and absorption. The skin also can synthesize vitamin D. Difficulty: mediumFeedback: 5.4 23. Briefly describe the steps in epidermal wound healing. Ans: In response to an epidermal injury, basal cells of the epidermis surrounding the wound break contact with the basement membrane. The cells then enlarge and migrate across the wound. When epidermal cells encounter each other they stop migrating due to contact inhibition. Migration of the epidermal cells stops completely when each is finally in contact with other epidermal cells on all sides. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 5.5 24. Briefly describe the steps in deep wound healing. Ans: In deep wound healing, a blood clot forms during the inflammation response and loosely unites the wound edges. Then in the migratory phase the clot becomes a scab and epithelial cells migrate beneath the scab to bridge the wound. Fibroblasts migrate along fibrin threads and begin synthesizing scar tissue and damaged blood vessels begin to regrow. During the maturation phase, the scab sloughs off once the epidermis has been restored to normal thickness. Collagen fibers become more organized, fibroblasts decrease in number and blood vessels are restored to normal. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 5.5 Multiple Choice 25.

Describe the structural characteristics of the epidermis that relate to its protection function. Ans: Multiple layers of cells in stratified squamous epithelium help resist friction. Keratin of intermediate filaments provides strength to tissue by binding cells tightly together and to underlying tissue, and by producing a barrier to microbes. Lamellar granules of keratinocytes produce lipid-rich, water-repellent sealant to protect from dehydration and entry of foreign materials. Melanin, produced by melanocytes, protects underlying tissue from UV light. Sebum secreted onto the surface helps protect from dehydration and microbial invasion. Langerhans cells participate in immune response to microbial invasion. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 5.1 46. Compare and contrast the locations and structure of thin and thick skin. Ans: Thick skin is found on palms and palmar surfaces of digits and soles, while thin skin is found in all other areas but not these. Thick skin is 4-5x thicker than thin skin. The stratum lucidum is present in thick skin but not thin, and strata spinosum and corneum are thicker. Thick skin exhibits epidermal ridges, more sweat glands and denser sensory receptors. Thin skin has hair follicles and sebaceous glands, while thick skin does not. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 5.3 47. List and briefly discuss the functions of skin.

John has just been brought into the emergency room following a fiery explosion at a chemical plant. He is diagnosed with third degree burns over the anterior surfaces of hisarms and trunk. What specific structural damage has occurred to his skin? What risks to John's life have resulted from this damage? Ans: John has lost approximately 36% of his skin's surface area (according to the Rule of Nines), which leads to severe systemic effects. The epidermis, dermis and associated structures have been destroyed. Sensory function is lost. Loss of epidermis (and so, lost keratin and Langerhans cells) leaves John open to microbial invasion. Loss of keratinized structures and lamellar granules allows for extreme water loss, leading to dehydration, reduced blood volume and circulation, and decreased urine output.

Ans: Spongy bone is light, which reduces the overall weight of a bone so that it moves more readily when pulled by a skeletal muscle. The trabeculae of spongy bone tissue support and protect the red bone marrow. Compact bone is usually found in the exterior of bone, is heavy and dense and made up of osteons. Its function is to resist breakage and provide support of the body. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 6.3 16. Name and describe the major arteries found in bone. Ans: The periosteal arteries accompany nerves that enter the diaphysis through Volkmann’s canals and supply the periosteum and outer portion of compact bone. The nutrient artery passes through the nutrient foramen. The metaphyseal arteries enter the metaphysis of a long bone and supply the red bone marrow and bone tissue of the metaphyses. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 6.4 17. Briefly describe the steps in endochondral ossification. Ans: Intramembraneous ossification begins with the development of the ossification center within cartilage formed from mesenchyme. The cartilage continues to grow, through the action of chondroblasts, while eventually the cartilage is exchanged with bone tissue. When the cartilage becomes surroundedby bone, and nutrients cannot pass through the new bone matrix, it begins to die. Blood vessels will grow into the inside of the bone and transport osteoblasts into the interior of the bone. There is formation of trabeculae to create spongy bone tissue at this first, or primary, ossification center inside the bone. As with intramembranous ossification, calcification occurs by calcium and other mineral salts depositing in the matrix and hardening. As the interior of the cartilage model forms bone it is also remodeled and eventually hollowed out to form the medullary cavity. Cartilage continues to grow lengthwise. A second ossification center forms at each end to form bony epiphyses. This leaves a plate of hyaline cartilage between the new epiphysis and diaphysis and a layer of hyaline cartilage at the proximal and distal ends of the bone (articular cartilage). Ossification continues until the complete development of the periosteum around the outside of the bone. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 6.5 18. Briefly describe the steps in intramembraneous ossification. Ans: Intramembraneous ossification begins with the development of the ossification center within sheets of mesenchyme. At the site where bone will develop, mesenchymal cells cluster together and differentiate into osteoblasts. Then calcification occurs by calcium and other mineral salts depositing in the matrix and hardening. There is a formation of trabeculae to form spongy bones. Blood vessels will grow into the spaces in the trabeculae. It finishes with development of the periosteum around the outside of the bone. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 6.5 Multiple Choice 19.

Briefly describe the steps in bone deposition. Ans: During bone deposition, osteogenic cells develop into osteoblasts. The osteoblasts secrete collagen fibers and other organic substances to begin formation of matrix. Within the spaces between fibers, calcification occurs to form a solid matrix that eventually surrounds the osteoblast and some extracellular fluid. The osteoblast in its new lacuna become isolated and become osteocytes. The osteocytes continue to secrete matrix but at a lower level. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 6.5 22. Briefly describe the steps in bone resorption. Ans: During bone resorption, an osteoclast attaches tightly to the endosteum or periosteum of the bone and forms a leak proof seal at the edges. Then it releases protein-digesting lysosomal enzymes and several amino acids into the sealed pocket. The enzymes digest collagen fibers and other organic substances while the acids dissolve the bone materials. Working together several osteoclasts carve out a small tunnel in the old bone. The degraded bone proteins and extracellular matrix minerals enter an osteoclast by endocytosis, cross the cell in vesicles, and undergo exocytosis on the side opposite the ruffled border. Now in the interstitial fluid, the products of bone resorption diffuse into nearby blood capillaries. Once asmall area of bone has been resorbed, osteoclasts depart and osteoblasts move in to rebuild bone in that area. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 6.5 Multiple Choice 23.

Insulin and human growth hormone Ans: B Difficulty: medium Feedback: 6.5 Essay 31. Describe the steps in bone repair Answer: After the break, blood vessels are damaged and blood surrounds the fracture. The blood solidifies to form a clot which reduces bleeding. White blood cells migrate in to remove bacteria and damaged cells. Osteoclasts migrate in to remove dead bone matrix. Secondly, fibroblasts migrate into the fracture to form a plate of cartilage to prevent further movement and damage at the fracture site. Thirdly, osteoblasts invade to replace the cartilage with bone matrix in the form of spongy bone. Lastly, the bone matrix will be remodeled to until the bone is returned to normal Ans: After the break, blood vessels are damaged and blood surrounds the fracture.

Ans: The only means by which bone can increase in length is by activity at the epiphyseal plate. Until full height is reached, the plate consists of layers of chondrocytes, which generate matrix that is then calcified and replaced by bone matrix secreted by osteoblasts on the diaphyseal side of the plate. Around ages 18-20 the cartilage is replaced completely by bone and no more lengthwise growth can occur. Bone increases in diameter via appositional growth as new bone matrix is laid down by osteoblasts in the periosteum. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 6.5 33. Patient X has a tumor of the parathyroid glands that causes a hyper secretion from these glands. Predict the effect on the skeletal system and on the secretion of calcitonin. Ans: High levels of PTH would cause high levels of osteoclast activity, thus removing calcium from bones. Bones would become weak and soft. Excess phosphate would be lost from the kidneys. High levels of calcium ions in blood may disrupt nerve and muscle function. Calcitonin levels would probably be high, trying to restore homeostasis by increasing deposition of calcium into bone. Difficulty: hard Feedback: 6.5 34. An archeologist and an anthropologist are studying two skeletons from an ancient tomb that had apparently been looted in an earlier time. Both skeletons are females; both are approximately the same height. However, the anthropologist is absolutely certain that one skeleton is the remains of someone from the privileged class while the other skeleton is the remains of a servant or slave. How could the anthropologist be so sure of the economic status of the individuals based solely on their skeletal remains? Ans: A person who is from the privileged class probably has better nutrition but doesn’t have to do as much physical labor (exercise) a person from the servant or slave class. The anthropologist probably notes a difference in bone density in the two skeletons— especially on parts of bones where muscles attached. The skeleton of the servant probably has more density than the skeleton of the privileged class at those points. It isalso possible that the servant suffered from malnutrition during life. If so, her skeleton might show evidence of rickets or osteopenia. Difficulty: hard Feedback: 6.7 – 6.8 35. Describe the signs and symptoms of osteoporosis and describe the risk factors for developing osteoporosis. Ans: In osteoporosis, bone resorption outpaces bone deposition so that bone mass is depleted, sometimes to the point of spontaneous fracture. Pain and height loss may occur as vertebrae shrink. Postmenopausal women are especially at risk due to lower initial bone mass than men due to dramatically reduced estrogen levels. Family history may play a role, as does ethnicity (white and Asian women have a higher rate of disease), inactivity, cigarette smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and a diet low in calcium and vitamin D.

Briefly describe the differences between a mechanical advantage and a mechanical disadvantage. Ans: A lever operates at a mechanical advantage when a smaller effort can move a heavier load. The effort must move a greater distance or have a longer range of motion and be faster than the load. A lever operates at a mechanical disadvantage when a larder effort moves a lighter load. The effort must move more slowly and for a shorter distance than the load. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 11.17. Briefly describe the three categories of levers, an example of each and if each one works at an advantage or disadvantage. Ans: If the fulcrum is between the effort and the load it is a first class lever. Scissors are an example of a first class lever. A first class lever can produce either a mechanical advantage or disadvantage depending on whether the effort or load is closer to the fulcrum. If the load is between the fulcrum and the effort it is a second class lever. A wheel barrow is an example of a second class lever. They operate at a mechanical advantage because the load is always closer to the fulcrum than the effort. If the effort is between the fulcrum and the load it is a third class lever. Forceps are an example of a third class lever. They operate at a mechanical disadvantage because the effort is always closer to the fulcrum than the load.

Briefly describe four main benefits of stretching before exercising. Ans: Stretching can increase flexibility and a flexible joint has the ability to move through a greater range of motion which improves performance. Stretching decreases resistance in various soft tissues so there is less of a chance of exceeding maximum tissue extensibility during activity. Stretching can reduce some of the muscle soreness that results after exercise. Stretching can help realign soft tissues to improve and maintain good posture.

Describe the arrangement of these parts in first, second, and third class lever systems. Ans: The bone is the lever; the joint is the fulcrum; the muscle contraction pulling on its insertion point is the effort; the weight of the part to be moved is the resistance. A first class lever has the fulcrum between the effort and the resistance; a second class lever has the resistance in the middle; the third class lever has the effort in the middle. In all cases, the lever moves around the fulcrum. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 11.1 15. Discuss the roles of prime movers, antagonists, synergists, and fixators in movement. Ans: The prime mover contracts to cause a particular action. The antagonist causes the opposite action, and so, must relax while the prime mover contracts. Synergists prevent unwanted movements during an action, while fixators stabilize the origin of the prime mover. Both allow the prime mover to work more efficiently.

Ans: The barrier is formed by capillaries whose endothelial cells have tight junctions and a continuous basement membrane. Astrocytes also press against the capillaries to help control what can leave the blood and enter the brain. Small molecules and lipid-soluble substances pass easily; water-soluble substances may pass via carrier. Large molecules typically do not pass at all.

Ans: The crushing of the occipital bone usually also crushes the brainstem, particularly the medulla oblongata. Damage to important nuclei regulating vital functions, such as respiration, heart rate and force of contraction, and diameter of blood vessels, may result in death. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 14.350. In 1848, a railroad worker named Phineas Gage was seriously injured during an explosion on the job. A tapered metal rod ranging from 0.25 inches to 1.25 inches in diameter and over 3 feet long entered his skull just under his left cheek bone and exited through the top of his skull. The rod was found over twenty feet away. Amazingly, Gage lived even though he suffered massive damage to the left front of his brain. His personality and intellectual abilities changed, however. Before the accident, he was respected as a smart, capable and even-tempered man. After the accident, he was foulmouthed and bad-tempered and could not make up his mind. In the years immediately preceding his death, he began to have epileptic seizures. Explain the changes observed in Mr. Gage based on your knowledge of the brain. Ans: The accident apparently damaged the frontal lobe and specifically the prefrontal cortex of the left side of Mr. Gage’s brain. The frontal lobe is involved in memory and intellect. The prefrontal cortex is involved in judgment, ethics, and conscious. The changes Mr. Gage experienced indicate that the right side of his brain could not compensate for the losses on the left side of the brain. It is remarkable that the story doesn’t mention that Mr. Gage lost some motor function on his right side since it is controlled by the primary motor region on left side of the brain. There is also no mention of loss of speech, which is largely processed on the left side of the brain. Perhaps the iron rod just missed those areas. As far as the epileptic seizures are concerned, it is possible that the accident damaged the basal ganglia to some degree. As he aged and lost connections between neurons that damage might have become more evident as the basal ganglia could no longer communicate effectively with the rest of the brain. Difficulty: hard Feedback: 14.7 51. Describe the structural and functional relationship between the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland. Ans: The hypothalamus releases regulatory hormones into the capillary networks in the median eminence to increase or decrease hormone production and secretion from the anterior pituitary. Axons from the paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei extend through the infundibulum to the posterior pituitary. Their cell bodies produce oxytocin or antidiuretic hormone, which is stored and released from the axons, which form the posterior pituitary. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 14.5Testbank Chapter 15.

Describe the possible ways in which sympathetic preganglionic neurons may connect with postganglionic neurons.Ans: The axon may 1) synapse with postganglionic neurons in the first ganglion it reaches, 2) ascend or descend to higher or lower ganglia via sympathetic chains, or 3) continue without synapsing through sympathetic trunk ganglia to prevertebral ganglia via splanchnic nerves. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 15.2 40. Explain why the sympathetic division of the ANS has more widespread and longer-lasting effects than the parasympathetic division. Ans: A single sympathetic preganglionic neuron synapses with 20 or more postganglionic neurons vs. about five for parasympathetic. The sympathetic neurotransmitters are broken down more slowly than acetylcholine, so postganglionic cells are stimulated longer. The sympathetic division also stimulates release of catecholamines (NE) from the adrenal medulla, thus enhancing the sympathetic effects via the endocrine system. Many more visceral effectors have receptors for catecholamines than for acetylcholine. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 15.4 41. An autonomic neuron releases the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. What can you tell about this neuron's role in the ANS? Describe the effector types, in terms of responses to the neurotransmitter. What possible characteristics can be determined about the postsynaptic cell? Explain your answers. Ans: The neuron could be a preganglionic neuron in either division of the ANS, a parasympathetic postganglionic neuron, or one of a few sympathetic postganglionic neurons (innervating sweat glands). The postsynaptic cell must possess either nicotinic or muscarinic receptors in order to respond to acetylcholine. This effector cell could be a postganglionic neuron of either division, a parasympathetic visceral effector, or one of the few sympathetic effectors stimulated by cholinergic neurons. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 15.3 42. A patient with chronic skeletal muscle spasms was placed on an anticholinergic medication. The muscle spasms have gone, but now the patient also reports a loss of muscle strength. In addition, the patient’s blood pressure is so low that she faints if she stands up too quickly. Explain the effects of the medication the patient received.Ans: Medications that block the action of acetylcholine are described as anticholinergic. Since ACh stimulates skeletal muscles to contract, blocking ACh should help reduce muscle spasms. In high enough doses the medication might prevent the normal contraction of skeletal muscles and could, perhaps, cause a flaccid paralysis. Blood pressure is due, in part, to the number of and force of contractions of the heart. ACh reduces both and thereby reduces blood pressure. (Note that ACh doesn’t have a direct effect on the diameter of most blood vessels and therefore does not directly affect blood pressure through vasodilation.) Perhaps a medication that specifically blocked nictonic receptors would eliminate the muscle spasms without causing hypotension. Difficulty: hard Feedback: 15.3 43. Explain how the ANS regulates blood flow during times of fight or flight vs. times of rest-and-digest. Ans: The sympathetic ANS serves arterioles and veins in all areas. Increased vasoconstriction or vasodilation occurs with greater sympathetic stimulation depending on the type of receptor present on the smooth muscle cells of the vessel walls. In general, vasodilation occurs in those vessels serving the heart and those skeletal muscles crucial to fight or flight. Vasoconstriction occurs in those vessels serving areas less vital to fighting/fleeing e.g., in skin, digestive organs, and the urinary system. Most vessels do not have parasympathetic innervation. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 15.4 44. Compare and contrast the overall responses of the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions. Ans: The sympathetic division acts to support increased physical activity by increasing energy transport to relevant organs. This system acts to reduce short term stress. For instance, increased heart rate and contraction as well as increased blood pressure, coupled with shunting blood via vasodilation by the supplying blood vessels, to the lungs, liver, heart and skeletal muscles will allow those organs to increase function. The lungs receive more oxygen because of bronchodilation. The liver, also receiving more blood, will release glucose, that with the increased blood oxygen, will provide the body cells with the ability to increase ATP production. The parasympathetic system tends to return the body to normality, and to prepare the body to acquire energy. For instance, blood flow is now routed to digestive, reproductive and urinary organs. More digestion and defecation occurs, sexual activity can be supported, and urine produce is increased. Decreased heart rate and blood pressure also occur.Difficulty: hard Feedback: 15.4Testbank Chapter 16. Sensory, Motor and Integrative Systems Multiple Choice 1.

You are sitting on a sunny Florida beach. Describe the anatomical structures that must be present and the physiological events that must occur in order for you to perceive the warmth of the sun. Ans: Thermoreceptors must be present to sense the thermal stimuli. The stimulus must occur within the receptor's receptive field. The stimuli are transduced into graded potentials that eventually reach threshold to trigger nerve impulses in a first-order neuron, which transmits the information to the CNS via the neurons of the spinothalamic tract.The primary somatosensory area then must interpret the information provided by these neurons. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 16.2, 16.3 42. Synesthesia is a condition in which stimulation of one sensory modality results in perception of another. One man reportedly tastes shapes. Many synesthetic people hear colors. Based on what you know about sensation, explain the phenomenon of synesthesia. Ans: Usually a given receptor can only convey a single type of sensory modality. For instance, photoceptors can usually only relay impulses related to light intensity. Some receptors can relay different modalities based on the type of stimulus received. Lamellated corpuscles relay information about pressure in response to low frequency stimulation but relay information about vibration in response to higher frequency stimulation. Perhaps some types of synesthesia result from anomalous receptors that can send very different information in response to different frequency or intensity of stimulation. A stronger explanation for the phenomenon may be related to the fact that sensations are interpreted based on which part of the cerebral cortex receives the impulses from the 3rd order neuron in the sensory pathway. Synesthetic patients may have unusual distributions of neurons to the cerebral cortex. Most people would sense the taste “sweet” because their 3rd order neuron carrying those impulses terminated in the gustatory area. The man who tastes shapes may have a “sweet” neuron that terminates in the “shape” area of the visual cortex. Difficulty: hard Feedback: 16.3 43. A viral infection has damaged a patient’s tectospinal tract. What signs of this damage probably helped the physicians diagnose the problem? Ans: The tectospinal tract is an extrapyramidal, or indirect, motor pathway. It conveys nerve impulses from the superior colliculus to contralateral skeletal muscles that move the head and eyes in response to visual stimuli. One sign of such damage would be the inability of the patient to turn his head toward a flashing light. The patient would also be unable to follow movements of the physician’s finger with his eyes. The patient would probably be unable to read words scrolling across a screen. Each of these deficits relates to the inability to move the head or eyes in response to visual stimuli and would alert the physician to damage of the tectospinal tract. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 16.244. Describe the role of the reticular activating system in sleep, arousal, and consciousness. Ans: A variety of sensory stimuli feed into the RAS, which feeds into the thalamus and cerebral cortex to increase neuronal activity, causing arousal from sleep and maintaining consciousness. During periods of high ATP use, adenosine accumulates and binds to A1 receptors, inhibiting cholinergic neurons in the RAS, and inducing sleep. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 16.5 45. Compare short-term memory vs. long-term memory with regard to specific changes that are thought to occur in the brain. Ans: Short-term memory may depend on forming new synapses and reverberating circuits. Long-term memory is thought to involve high-frequency stimulation within the hippocampus at glutamate synapses. Nitric oxide and other neurotransmitters may be involved. Neurons develop new presynaptic terminals, larger synaptic end bulbs, and more dendritic branches. Enhanced facilitation occurs.

Ans: Odorant molecules dissolve in mucus secreted by the olfactory epithelium and bind to receptors, triggering a generator potential. In some cases the binding activates a G protein in the plasma membrane that activates adenylate cyclase that opens sodium ion channels. Axons of the receptors (first-order neurons) transmit impulses via cranial nerve I through the olfactory foramina of the cribiform plate and terminate in the olfactory bulbs, where they synapse withsecond-order neurons. These axons form the olfactory tracts, which transmit impulses to the olfactory area in the temporal lobe. Other important brain areas include the limbic system, the hypothalamus, and the orbitofrontal area. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 17.1 54. Emily was very ill with an upper respiratory infection. Her roommate gave her some chicken soup to make her feel better. Neither Emily nor her roommate realized that the soup was too hot to eat until after Emily put a spoonful in her mouth. Now Emily says she can’t taste anything. Why? When will she be able to taste again? Ans: Emily probably already had trouble smelling her food because of her infection. The hot soup probably damaged her taste buds, especially the ones on the front and sides of her tongue. Those taste buds are more sensitive to sweet, sour and salty tastes. The ones at the back of the tongue are sensitive to bitter tastes, and the ones in the throat are sensitive to umami tastes. The taste buds are epithelial tissues and should heal in a few days or so. When they do, Emily will be able to taste again. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 17.2 55. Describe the process of image formation on the retina.

Difficulty: medium Feedback: 17.3 56. Deafness can occur for many reasons. Using your knowledge of the structure of the ear and the processing of detecting sound, explain why arthritis could cause deafness. Ans: Arthritis results when synovial joints are damaged and can no longer move freely. The joints between the ossicles, found in the middle ear, are synovial joints. If they became stiff from arthritis and their movements were limited, sound waves striking the tympanic membrane would not be efficiently transferred to the oval window of the cochlea. Without that transmission, the fluid in the cochlea cannot move the hair cells on the organ of Corti. If those hair cells do not move, not impulses relaying information about sound can be generated. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 17.457. Differentiate between static and dynamic equilibrium. Describe the structures and physiological mechanisms involved in receiving and transducing vestibular sensations. Ans: Static equilibrium is the maintenance of body position relative to gravity. Hair cells in the maculae of the utricle and saccule bend as the otolithic membrane slides forward due to gravity. Receptor potentials are transmitted to cranial nerve VIII to the pons. Dynamic equilibrium is the maintenance of body position in response to movement. Endolymph flowing over hair cells in the cristae of semicircular ducts causes bending. Receptor potentials are passed to cranial nerve VIII to the pons. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 17.4Testbank Chapter 18. The Endocrine System Multiple Choice 1.

Compare and contrast the mechanisms of action of lipid-soluble vs. water-soluble hormones.Ans: Upon reaching their targets, lipid-soluble hormones diffuse through the phospholipid bilayer of the target cell membrane and bind to receptors in the cytosol or nucleus. The activated receptor turns a gene on or off, thus regulating synthesis of a protein. Water-soluble hormones bind to membrane receptors, activating a G protein, which activates adenylate cyclase, which converts ATP to the second messenger cAMP, which activates a protein kinase to regulate enzyme action. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 18.4 42. Describe the role of the hypothalamus in the regulation of the pituitary gland. Ans: The hypothalamus is the integrating center for much sensory input. It secretes releasing and inhibiting hormones which diffuse into the hypophyseal portal system to regulate secretion of all hormones from the anterior pituitary gland. It also contains receptors that monitor blood osmotic pressure and neural input from reproductive structures. Integration of this input leads to production of ADH and OT by neurosecretory cells. These hormones are then transported through the hypothalamohypophyseal tract to be secreted by exocytosis from the posterior pituitary in response to nerve impulses. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 18.6 43. Enuresis, or bedwetting, may be caused by psychological, anatomical or physiological factors. In the latter case, vasopressin is often prescribed and is a very effective treatment. What is vasopressin? How can it prevent enuresis? Ans: Vasopressin is also called antidiuretic hormone or ADH. In addition to its vasoconstrictive effects, ADH causes the kidneys to reabsorb more water. Someone who does not make enough ADH may not be able to contain all of the urine produced while they are sleeping. If they are not awakened by the pressure in their urinary bladder, they may wet the bed instead of getting up and going to the toilet. Since vasopressin helps the body reabsorb more water, a person’s bladder should not get so full that they end up wetting the bed while sleeping. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 18.6 44. Describe and explain the similarities between starvation and diabetes mellitus.Ans: A starving person is lacking energy-providing nutrient sources, and so, must use structural components of the body as energy sources. The diabetic consumes adequate nutrients, but due to the lack of insulin, is unable to move glucose into cells, and so, cannot use the nutrients. In both cases, energy generation is dependent on non-glucose sources, such as fatty acids and amino acids. Mobilization and metabolism of fats and proteins for energy production purposes leads to ketoacidosis, weight loss, and hunger. Difficulty: hard Feedback: 18.10Multiple Choice 1.

Describe the negative feedback loop that controls the rate of erythropoiesis. Under what circumstances would you expect the rate of erythropoiesis to be increased? How would it be possible to tell if the rate of erythropoiesis is elevated? Ans: Hypoxia in the kidney leads to secretion of erythropoietin, which targets proerythroblasts in red bone marrow to mature into reticulocytes, which enter circulation to become red blood cells which increase the oxygen carrying capacity of blood. The rate of red blood cell formation should also be increased in any form of anemia (reduced oxygen carrying capacity of blood), or when oxygen levels in the external environment are low (e.g., high altitudes). High levels of reticulocytes in circulation indicate an increase in erythropoiesis.Difficulty: medium Feedback: 19.3 39. Explain the proposed role of hemoglobin in the maintenance of blood pressure. Ans: Hemoglobin releases carbon dioxide and nitric oxide when passing through the lungs. It then picks up oxygen and super nitric oxide, which are then circulated and released to tissues. Release of super nitric oxide causes vasodilation and so, a decrease in blood pressure. Nitric oxide causes vasoconstriction and an increase in blood pressure. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 19.3 40. On a differential white blood cell count, Ezra is found to have 85 percent neutrophils and an elevated number of band cells. What is the most likely cause of Ezra's high neutrophil count? What benefits are being provided by all these neutrophils? What is the significance of the band cells? Ans: High neutrophil count indicates bacterial infection (most likely), and increased band cells indicates a rapid turnover of neutrophils with an increased demand for replacements. Neutrophils are phagocytes that, upon engulfing a pathogen, release antimicrobial substances, such as lysozyme, oxidants, and defensins. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 19.4 41. Why does damaged endothelium present an increased risk of blood clotting?

Describe the five main types of blood vessels as you explain the flow of blood between the heart and the tissues. Ans: Blood is carried away from the heart in arteries. All arteries have an outer tunica externa (mostly elastic and collagen fibers), an inner tunica media (mostly smooth muscle and elastic fibers) and a lining called the tunica interna (endothelial tissue). Large diameter arteries have more elastic fibers than smooth muscle in their walls and conduct blood to regions of the body, e.g. the subclavian artery carries blood toward the upper extremity. As arteries enter a body region, they branch and their diameters decrease. Their walls have proportionately more smooth muscle than elastic tissue. These arteries are called muscular or distributing arteries, e.g. the radial artery. Branching of the blood vessels continues until the vessels are nearly microscopic arterioles. Arterioles have little elastic tissue, but can change diameter quickly because of the smooth muscle in their wall. Thus, they are the major sites of regulation of blood pressure and distribution. Arterioles feed into capillary beds. Capillaries are the sites of exchange between the tissues and the blood. Venules drain the capillaries and begin the path back to the heart. Venules merge to form veins (and ultimately, vena cavae) that carry the blood to the heart. Veins have much less smooth muscle than arteries; they also have valves that help prevent backflow of blood. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 21.154. In a freak accident, an overheated and dehydrated roofer falls off the roof and onto a mirror that is being brought into a construction site. The mirror breaks and cuts several blood vessels, including the femoral artery. What will happen to the roofer’s NFP? Why? Ans: If the roofer overheated, he probably had already lost a significant volume of body fluid through perspiration as his body tried to cool off. That loss would account for the dehydration. Loss of fluid without significant loss of solutes causes the blood colloidal osmotic pressure (BCOP) to increase. The cuts the roofer suffered would cause hemorrhaging and a loss of blood hydrostatic pressure (BHP). If the BHP goes down and the BCOP goes up, the net filtration pressure (NFP) should decrease because NFP = (BHP + IFOP) – BCOP. [IFOP is the interstitial fluid osmotic pressure, which is so much smaller than the BHP or BCOP that it usually doesn’t change NFP.] Difficulty: hard Feedback: 21.2 and 21.4 and 21.6 55. Identify and discuss the factors that contribute to systemic vascular resistance. Ans: 1) Blood viscosity ratio of formed elements and proteins to plasma; increasing viscosity via increasing formed elements or decreasing plasma volume increases resistance 2) Total blood vessel length directly proportional to resistance; increasing length of circuit (by adding new blood vessels to serve added tissue) increases resistance 3) Diameter/radius of blood vessels as major effect on resistance; increased diameter decreases resistance, thus increasing flow; controlled by ANS; small vessels have greater effect because more surface area is in contact with blood. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 21.3 56. A patient has the misfortune to have both diabetes insipidus and Addison’s disease. How will those conditions affect the patient’s ability to regulate blood pressure? Ans: Diabetes insipidus associated with deficient secretion of ADH (antidiuretic hormone or vasopression). Addison’s disease is associated with inadequate secretion of aldosterone and cortisol from the adrenal cortex. ADH and aldosterone influence blood pressure. ADH causes the kidneys to reabsorb more water into the blood. More water means more blood volume, which in turn means more blood pressure. ADH also causes peripheral blood vessels to constrict, thus raising blood pressure. Aldosterone is part of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone pathway that regulates blood pressure. Baroreceptorsin the kidney detect low blood pressure and signal the kidney to release more renin. In a series of steps, the increased renin secretion results in conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II. Angiotensins cause peripheral vasoconstriction increasing blood pressure. Angiontensin II triggers the adrenal cortex to release more aldosterone. Aldosterone causes the kidneys to reabsorb more Na+. Since water follows Na+, the effect is to increase blood volume and therefore blood pressure. Aldosterone also increases the secretion of two vasodilating ions: K+ and H+. Removing those ions limits vasodilation and increases blood pressure. Since the patient doesn’t have enough ADH or aldosterone, he or she will probably have a difficult time maintaining normal blood pressure. The patient is likely to have hypotension and experience syncope if he or she changes position too quickly. Difficulty: hard Feedback: 21.4 57. Describe the route of an RBC traveling from the heart to the left elbow and back to the heart. Ans: From the heart, the RBC will enter the ascending aorta and then the aortic arch. The RBC will exit the aorta through the left subclavian artery, continue on that route through the axillary artery and into the brachial artery. At the elbow, the blood cell will exit into one of the small distributing arteries, move into a capillary bed, and then into venules in the elbow region. The RBC will then probably enter the median cubital vein and move into either the basilic or the cephalic vein. The basilic vein drains into the brachial vein, which drains into the axillary vein. The cephalic vein drains directly into the axillary vein. From axillary vein, the RBC will travel into the subclavian and brachiocephalic veins before entering the superior vena cava. The SVC will take the RBC back to the heart. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 21.7Multiple Choice 1.

Describe the inward forces of elastic recoil, and explain why the lungs do not normally collapse during expiration. Ans: Elastic recoil is the recoil of elastic fibers stretched during inspiration and the pull of the surface tension of alveolar fluid. Intrapleural pressure is always subatmospheric during normal breathing, which tends to pull lungs outward and to keep alveolar pressure from equalizing with atmospheric pressure. Surfactant in alveolar fluid decreases surface tension to help prevent collapse. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 23.2 51. Why is epinephrine injected as a treatment for the respiratory signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis? Ans: Epinephrine enhances sympathetic activity to dilate airways and decrease airway resistance, which had been elevated by the effects of histamine on the bronchioles. It also raises blood pressure, which enhances oxygen delivery to tissues by increasing flow. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 23.252. Describe and explain the effects of smoking on the functioning of the respiratory system. Ans: Nicotine constricts terminal bronchioles to increase airway resistance, as does the increased mucus secretion and swelling of the mucosa. Smoke inhibits the movement of cilia, which allows buildup of substances and microbes normally removed. Over time, smoking leads to destruction of elastic tissue, which decreases compliance, and ultimately to the effects of emphysema. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 23.7 53. Describe the neural, chemical, and physical changes that increase the rate and depth of ventilation during exercise. Ans: Anticipation of exercise generates neural input to the limbic system. Sensory input is provided from proprioceptors and motor input is provided from the primary motor cortex. As the partial pressure of oxygen falls due to increased consumption, the partial pressure of carbon dioxide and the temperature increase due to metabolic activity in muscle fibers. Also, carbon dioxide is added via the buffering of the hydrogen ions produced as a result of lactic acid production. Chemoreceptors sense the changes in partial pressure and notify the medullary rhythmicity center to increase the rate and depth of breathing. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 23.7 54. In chronic emphysema, some alveoli merge together and some are replaced with fibrous connective tissue. In addition, the bronchioles are often inflamed, and expiratory volume is reduced. Using proper respiratory system terminology, explain at least four reasons why affected individuals will have problems with ventilation and external respiration. Ans: Answers could include: reduced compliance (reduces ability to increase thoracic volume); increased airway resistance (decreases tidal volume); decreased diffusion due to increased diffusion distance, decreased surface area, and changes in partial pressures of gases (altering gradients). Other answers may be acceptable. Difficulty: hard Feedback: 23.7Multiple Choice 1.

Explain why food does not normally go up into your nasal cavity or down into your lungs when you swallow-even if you are standing on your head when you swallow. Ans: Presence of food in the oropharynx stimulates the deglutition center in the medulla and pons to move the soft palate and uvula upward to close off the nasopharynx, thus keeping food out of the nasal cavity. At the same time, the larynx rises and the epiglottis moves down and back to seal off the larynx, which is further closed by the vocal cords, thus keeping food from entering the lower respiratory tract. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 24.8 50. Describe the role of the liver in protein metabolism. Ans: Hepatocytes deaminate amino acids. The amine group is converted to toxic ammonia.

Very low-density lipoproteins transport endogenous triglycerides from hepatocytes to adipocytes for storage. Low-density lipoproteins transport cholesterol through the body for use in repair of membranes and synthesis of steroid hormones and bile salts. High-density lipoproteins transport excess cholesterol to the liver for elimination. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 25.449. Describe the role of the hypothalamus in regulation of food intake. Ans: The hypothalamus contains the neurons of the feeding center that stimulate eating and of the satiety center that signal fullness. Two nuclei in the hypothalamus that help regulate food intake are the arcuate and paraventricular nuclei. The hormone leptin, - released by adipocytes, inhibits release of neuropeptide Y from the arcuate nucleus and thereby decreases food intake. Melanocortin also decreases food intake. It is thought that changes in blood chemistry (in terms of nutrients and hormone balance), as well as distention of the gastrointestinal tract, initiate appropriate hypothalamic activity. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 25.8 50. Which vitamins are considered "antioxidant vitamins?" Why is this role so important? Ans: Vitamins C, E, and beta-carotene (a provitamin) are antioxidants that inactivate oxygen free radicals. Free radicals damage cell membranes, DNA, and other cell structures.

Describe the flow of blood through the kidneys.Ans: Kidneys receive 20 to 25% of the resting cardiac output via the renal arteries. The renal arteries branch to form segmental arteries, which branch to form interlobar arteries (through renal columns) to arcuate arteries (over bases of pyramids) to interlobular arteries. The interlobular arteries branch to form afferent arterioles to each nephron. Afferent arterioles branch to form glomerular capillaries where filtration occurs. Glomerular capillaries merge to form efferent arterioles, which then branch to form peritubular capillaries. Juxtamedullary nephrons also have vasa recta capillaries around them. Peritubular capillaries merge to form peritubular veins and with the vasa recta to form interlobular veins to arcuate veins to interlobar veins to segmental veins. Blood exits the kidney via renal veins. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 26.2 44. Trace the flow of a water molecule through the nephrons from the afferent arteriole to the minor calyx. Ans: The water would flow from the afferent arteriole into the glomerulus, where it would be filtered into the Bowman’s capsule. From the Bowman’s capsule, it would enter the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT). Most of its companion water molecules would be reabsorbed into the blood in the PCT. The next part of the trip would take the water molecule through the descending of the loop of Henle, where more of its companion water molecules would be absorbed. From there, the water molecule would climb the ascending loop of Henle and move into the distal convoluted tubule (DCT). Toward the end of the DCT and most of the collecting duct, there are principal cells that respond to ADH and can absorb more water molecules. If not absorbed in the DCT or the collecting duct, the water molecule would move into the papillary duct that drains into the minor calyx. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 26.2 45. Describe the structural features of the renal corpuscle that enhance its blood filtering capacity. Ans: Endothelial cells of the glomerular capillaries are fenestrated. Their basement membranes are part of the filtering mechanism. Podocytes with filtration slits between pedicels wrap the glomerular capillaries. The large surface area also contributes to filtering ability, as does the high glomerular hydrostatic pressure created by the arrangement of the afferent and efferent arterioles, in which the diameter of the efferent arteriole is smaller than that of the afferent arteriole. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 26.246. Describe in detail how the renin-angiotensin negative feedback loop helps regulate blood pressure and glomerular filtration rate in response to dehydration. Ans: Dehydration causes a decrease in blood volume and pressure, which then decreases GFR. The JG cells of the juxtaglomerular apparatus sense decreased stretch and macula densa cells sense decreased water. The JG cells secrete renin, which converts angiotensinogen in blood to angiotensin I. The latter is converted to angiotensin II by Angiotensin Converting Enzymes in the lungs. Angiotensin II causes constriction of efferent arterioles, increased thirst, greater ADH secretion from the posterior pituitary, and increased secretion of aldosterone from the adrenal cortex. Blood volume is increased, which increases venous return, stroke volume, cardiac output, and blood pressure. GFR is also increased. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 26.4 47. Discuss the importance of countercurrent flow to the functioning of the nephron. Ans: Countercurrent flow refers to the flow of fluid in opposite directions in parallel tubing (tubules and blood vessels). The arrangement allows gradients to develop between tubular fluid, blood, and interstitial fluid. Gradients allow for reabsorption of large amounts of water and ions from the tubular fluid.

Describe the negative feedback loop that stimulates thirst as a result of dehydration. Ans: Dehydration causes 1) decreased flow of saliva, which dries the mouth and pharynx, 2) increased blood osmotic pressure, which stimulates osmoreceptors in the hypothalamus, and 3) decreased blood volume, which lowers blood pressure, increasing release of renin from JG cells, increasing levels of angiotensin II. All of these stimulate the thirst center in the hypothalamus, which increases fluid intake via thirst, thus increasing body water. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 27.134. Normal blood Na+ levels are 136-148 mEq/L. An elderly patient has a blood Na+ of 105 mEq/L. Describe the patient’s condition and the signs and symptoms that usually accompany that condition. Be sure to include the functions of Na+ in the body in your answer. Ans: The patient has hyponatremia, or low Na+ concentration in the blood. Na+ are used by the body in the depolarization phase of action potentials and in maintaining osmotic balance. Sometimes elderly people lose the ability to concentrate urine and lose too much Na+.

Trace the path of a sperm cell from the site of its maturation to the site where it leaves the male body. Include descriptions of fluids added along that path. Ans: Sperm mature in the epididymis. From there, they travel through the ductus (Vas) deferens through the abdominal cavity to the ampulla of the ductus deferens which merges with the duct of the seminal vesicle to form the ejaculatory duct. Sperm and the alkaline, fructose-rich fluid from the seminal vesicle move from the ejaculatory duct into the prostatic urethra, where they are mixed with a slightly acidic mucoid fluid from the prostate. Next the sperm and fluid pass through the membranous urethra and are mixed with additional alkaline secretions from the bulbourethral glands. The combination of sperm and secretions is called semen. The mixture travels through the penile urethra as it is ejaculated. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 28.1 41. Describe the functions of testosterone. Ans: Testosterone promotes the development and maintenance of male secondary sex characteristics, protein anabolism, development of sexual function (behavior, libido, spermatogenesis), and the male pattern of development during prenatal life. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 28.1 42. Describe the roles of estrogens and progesterone. Ans: Estrogens stimulate the growth, development and maintenance of the female reproductive structures. They stimulate the development of female secondary sex traits including the development of breasts and the pattern deposition of subcutaneous body fat. Estrogens cause the build up of the endometrial lining that prepares the uterus for implantation of the embryo. Estrogens also stimulate protein synthesis. Progesterone works with estrogens to prepare the endometrium for implantation and to prepare the breasts for milk production. Progesterone is critical to maintaining the endometrium throughout a pregnancy. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 28.2 43. Describe the positive feedback loop involved in ovulation.Ans: FSH and LH promote follicular development, thus increasing estrogen production. High levels of estrogen during the late preovulatory phase stimulate release of GnRH from the hypothalamus. GnRH promotes release of more FSH and LH from the anterior pituitary. Peak levels of LH trigger ovulation Difficulty: medium Feedback: 28.2 44. Describe the role of the autonomic nervous system in the human sexual response. Ans: In arousal, the parasympathetic nervous system stimulates vasocongestion of sexual organs, secretion of lubricating fluids, and relaxation of vaginal smooth muscle. The sympathetic nervous system stimulates an increase in heart rate and force of contraction, an increase in vasomotor tone, and hyperventilation. During orgasm, the sympathetic nervous system stimulates rhythmic contractions of smooth muscle in genital organs, ejaculation of semen, and closing off of the male bladder.
