-
Lung Cancer
primary cause is smoking
-
Pneumonia
bacteria cause fluid in lungs
-

breaking up of alveoli, fewer areas for gas exchange "suffocating for years"
-
Bronchitis
inflammation of the bronchi
-
Asthma
immune system causes inflammation of bronchi
-
Tuberculosis
bacteria cause a breakdown of lung tissue, coughing blood
-
Suffocation
insufficient O2 to cells
-
Salivary Glands
- mucus: lubricates food
- amylase: begins to break down carbohydrates
-
Tongue
- keeps food between teeth
- taste buds: 4 areas
- pushes food to esphagus
-
Trachea
- windpipe
- epiglottis prevents "breathing" food
-
Esophagus
- tube to stomach
- peristalsis starts
- rhythmic squeezing of food through tubes
-
Liver
- bile is produced
- emulsifies fats
- center for metabolism
- detoxifies blood
- bile sent to small intestine
- store glycogen
-
Gall Bladder
stores bile (bile emulsifies fat)
-
Stomach
- churn, mix food
- sphincters control openings
- protein digestion
- the hormone gastrin: stimulates release of gastric juices
- gastric juices: HCl, pepsin, etc
- VOMIT!: reverse peristalsis
-
Bile Duct
tube to small intestine from gall bladder
-
Duodenum
most digestion, first 1/3 of the small intestine
-
Pancreas
- produces insulin, regulates sugar uptake from blood
- if diabetic, insulin is not made
-
Pancreas Duct
tube to small intestine
-
Small Intestine
- 20-30 feet long
- villi: absorb nutrients
- final digestion occurs
- nutrients are: glucose, amino acids
- lacteals: absorb fats, glycerol
-
Appendix
evolutionary leftover
-
Large Intestine
- re-absorb H2O
- solid wastes stored
-
Rectum
solid wastes are concentrated
-
Anus
sphincters that control expulsion of waste
-
-
Peristalsis
muscular movement of food
-
-
-
-
Mechanical Digestion
moving disrupts (i.e. teeth, stomach)
-
Chemical Digestion
chemicals chop (i.e. saliva, stomach acid)
-
Fats
- used for: membranes, hormone production
- broken into: fatty acids and glycerol
-
Carbohydrates
- used for: energy
- broken into: simple sugars
-
Proteins
- used for: protein synthesis
- broken into: amino acids
-
-
Bile
- soap like, makes fat soluble
- aids absorption of fate
-
Amylase
- made: salivary glands
- acts: mouth, stomach
- purpose: turns polysaccharides into disaccharides
-
Pepsin
- made: stomach
- acts: stomach, duodenum
- purpose: turns polypeptides into smaller polypeptides
-
Rennin
- made: pancreas
- acts: stomach
- purpose: turns milk into cheese
-
Lipase
- made: pancreas
- acts: duodenum
- purpose: turns fats into fatty acids and glycerol
-
Ammonia (NH3)
- deadly poison
- highly toxic
- may be excreted by fish
-
Urea (NH2CONH2)
less toxic form excreted by many land animals
-
Gout
uric acid crystals that settle in joints from protein rich diets (liver)
-
Cortex
outer layer of kidney
-
Medulla
inner layer of kidneys
-
Urine
water + excess salts + urea
-
Liver
metabolic organ, generates nitrogenous waste
-
Renal Artery
carries urea to the kidney
-
Glomerulus
ball of capillaries dropping off material
-
Bowman's Capsule
where material enters the nephron
-
Loop of Henle
the entire collecting liip
-
Collecting Tubule
where materials are pumped back into blood
-
Ureter
caries waste to bladder
-
Urinary Bladder
sack to hold urine
-
Urethra
tube that releases urine from body
-
Renal Vein
carries "clean" blood back to body
-
Alcohol
diuretic: increases urine production
-
-
-
Renal (Kidney) Failure
- need dialysis to filter blood
- dialysis is artificially cleaning the blood by running it through a machine
-
Loss of Homeostatis
balance of salt and H2O
-
Diabetes Insipidus
- extreme thirst due to passage of large quantities (55 gal/day) of dilute urine
- antidiuretic hormone (ADH): a hormone that cause us to reabsorb water into the kidney
-
Diabetes Mellitus
sugar in urine due to lack of insulin
-
Kidney Stones
deposits of crystallized urea and other salts, very painful
-
Diffusion in the Alveoli
oxygen to blood, carbon dioxide out of blood
-
Diffusion in the Glomerulus
water, salt, urea, nutrients into bowman's capsule
-
Active Transport in the Loop of Henle
water, nutrients, and some salts pumped back into blood
