Quiz #9 Circulatory System

Study Guide for Circulatory System

Slides
  • Artery/Vein- know which is which
  • Disease States and characteristics- Atherosclerosis, Sickle Cell Anemia, Leukemia
  • Blood Smear- 3 major cell types: Erythrocytes, Platelets, Leukocytes (two types)
  • Cardiac Muscles-know defining characteristics

Fetal Pig, be able to identify the following structures

  • Exterior/Interior Jugular Veins
  • Carotid artery
  • Left and Right Atrium
  • Left and Right Ventricle
  • Coronary Artery and Vein
  • Pulmonary Artery and Vein *which type of blood they carry (oxygenated/deoxygenated)
  • Superior and Inferior Vena Cava
  • Aorta
  • Umbilical Arteries and Vein *which type of blood they carry

Adult Pig Heart

  • Understand flow of blood through chambers and valves
  • Left and Right Atrium
  • Left and Right Ventricle
  • Coronary Artery and Vein
  • Pulmonary Artery and Vein
  • Superior and Inferior Vena Cava
  • Aorta
  • Bicuspid Valve
  • Tricuspid Valve

Know difference between Adult and Fetal Pig Hearts (Fetal Pig Atlas)

Understand the Pulmonary Circulation vs. Systemic Circulation especially the flow of blood, if give and start and end point

ECG

  • Identify P wave, QRS complex, T wave
  • Calculations (heart beats/min)

Blood Typing

  • Chart on pg 207 in Lab manual
  • Blood types, antigens present, antibodies produced
  • Experiment blood typing results, Agglutination (clumping)
  • A, B, AB, O and D factor +/- Rh

Blood Pressure

  • Normal
  • Systolic vs. Diastolic- what they measure

Quiz # 8: Digestive system

Digestive system: quiz guide

• Name of enzymes, enzyme reactions and products formed during each of starch, proteins and fat digestion

• What organs aid in release of those enzymes and where does each of those processes occur.

• Table 2 on Pg 187: Understand the importance of changing acid and base to the effect on reaction.

• What all reagents (the obvious ones) were used for each of these tests

• Slide identification question: Know the functions of every layer of small intestine. Most importantly the muscle layers that are responsible for peristalsis and segmentation.

• Identification of organs: Know all the organs on Pg 192 as well as their function

• Also go through all the summary questions on Pg 192 and 193.

I will be there early so if any body wants to go through the digestive system in pig again before quiz – just hop in early.

Quiz #7 Study Tips

Since there is a great deal of material for you to remember, I thought I would put the study guide up sooner.

All the information can be found in your lab manual, fetal pig atlas, or handout.
Lab Manual pg. 163-177
Fetal Pig Atlas pg. 1-24

1. Histology-understand the different types, where these tissues types are found within the body, an example of each [ie. skeletal, cardiac and smooth muscle are muscle tissue types] and know in detail (specific to what you had to draw and label) tissue types found on the 3 slides
  • Epithelium, Connective, Supportive, Muscle, Nervous

3 slides:

  • Compact Bone- be able to label central canal, lamaellae, canaliculi, lacunae (refer to pg. 10 in your Fetal Pig Atlas)
  • Hyaline Cartilage- be able to label chondrocytes and lacunae (pg. 10 in Fetal Pig Atlas)
  • Skeletal Muscle- location of nucleus

2. Living Cow bone:

  • Know how to locate all 8 structures on pg. 171 of your lab manual, I won't ask for all on the quiz but I might ask you to label 1 or 2 structures indicated

3. Human Skeleton

  • Axial vs. Appendicular Division
  • Bone types pg. 172 in your lab manual, know an example of each bone type
  • Be able to identify human bones, on a skeleton and alone
  • Possible quiz question: Displayed the arm bones, asked you to identify each bone and the type of joint formed. I could do this for the arm, leg, hands, feet, shoulder, etc.

4. Joints-Examples pg. 12 in Fetal Pig Atlas

  • Condylar-knee
  • Gliding- wrist, ankle
  • Hinge- finger
  • Pivot- elbow
  • Spheroidal (Ball and Socket) - hip, shoulder
  • Suture - skull

5. Body Movements pg. 177 in lab manual

  • Flexion vs. Extension
  • Abduction vs. Adduction
  • Supinatin vs. Pronation
  • Dorsiflexion vs. Plantar flexion

6. Other terms to know:

  • Exoskeleton vs. Endoskelton
  • Tendon vs. Ligament

7. Body Planes/Orientation pg. 167 in lab manual:

  • Planes: Coronal, Transverse, Midsagittal, Sagittal
  • Orientations: Anterior/Ventral, Posterior/Dorsal, Medial, Lateral, Cranial, Caudal, Proximal, Distal
  • Understand the locations of planes in bipeds (2 legs) vs. quadrupeds (4 legs)

REMEMBER LAB COATS, FETAL PIG ATLAS, LAB MANUAL, POSTER TOPIC IDEAS DUE NEXT WEEK!

Quiz # 6-CSI Bio107 and Bones

Sorry for being late about the quiz tips. But here it is.

Principles of electrophoresis: What migrates where, charges? Use of standard markers (those colorful standards)

Restriction enzymes: What are they? How they work? Site specificity, single digest vs double digest.
How many fragments you could generate.

All about forensics and bones. Different structure of bones can be used to detect either male or female, age, ethnicity etc. What are these characteristics?
