the tidal volume change‚ what happens to the flow into each lung and total air flow? They all increased. 3. Why does this happen? Surfactant acts to decrease the surface tension of water in the fluid that line the walls of the alveoli. Activity 5: Effect of Thoracic Cavity Puncture 1. What happened to the left lung when you clicked on the valve button? It deflated. 2. Why? Because the pressure in the left lung was 0 and the right lung changed rapidly‚ the air moved into the intrapleural

Natalie Salaverria 01/21/11 LAB EXERCISE I After the first exercise : Simulating Simple diffusion Which Materials diffused from the left beaker to the right beaker? NaCl ‚ Urea ‚ Glucose Which did not ? Albumin Why ? Albumin’s Composition or charge was too great to diffuse through the membrane. After the 2nd activity : Simulating Dialysis What happens to the urea concentration in the left beaker (the Patient)? It diffused to the right beaker Why does this occur? The excess

REVIEW SHEET EXERCISE 6 Cardiovascular Physiology NAME: LAB TIME/DATE: 1. Define each of the following terms: • autorhymicity- The heart is autorhythmic. This means it generates its own rhythmic action potential independent of the nervous system. • sinoatrial node- is the impulse-generating (pacemaker) tissue located in the right atrium of the heart‚ and thus the generator of normal sinus rhythm. • pacemaker cells- are specialized cells that cause involuntary muscles and tissues to

Exercise 6: Cardiovascular Physiology Worksheet Assignment Due: Week 6 Electrical Stimulation Activity 1: Direct Heart Stimulation 1. Did you see any change in the trace? I did not see a change in the trace 2. Why or why not? This is because it needs more stimulation 3. Did you see any change in the trace? I did see a change in the trace 4. Why or why not? This is because there is double stimulation. 5. Describe the change you see in the trace. How does it differ from the baseline

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

PhysioEx – Exercise 9 Activity 1: 1. excretion and regulation 2. glomerular capillaries (glomerulus) & Bowman’s capsule 3. The filtrate flows from the Bowman’s capsule into the renal tubule called the proximal convoluted tubule then into the loop of Henle‚ and finally into the distal convoluted tubule: a. Proximal Convoluted Tubule b. Loop of Henle c. Distal Convoluted Tubule 4. When the radius of the afferent arteriole was decreased‚ the pressure and the filtration rate both decreased
