Sensory –approx 20 questions Receptor types (free nerve endings, proprioceptors, etc) and adequate stimulus Chemo, mechano, photoreceptors, nociceptors, thermoreceptors Special senses vs general senses Taste sensations, Smell, Sensory adaptation Eye structure and function, Distinguish b/w rods and cones, Distinguish b/w blind spot and fovea centralis, Accessory structures for the eye, visual pathway, tunics and functions Humors and associated cavities of eye Ear structure (inner, middle and outer ear) and function(s), hearing pathway Utricle and saccule f xn, semicircular canal structure(s) and function(s) Accessory structures of the eye Endocrine-approx 10 questions Functions of endocrine system Membrane-bound, cytoplasmic, and nuclear receptors, Hormone Receptors (types, location etc.) Types of hormone(s) that bind a particular type of receptor (Hormone types) Receptor response(s) to hormones-(gate an ion channel, activate enzymes, alter transcription) Paracrine and Autocrine signaling Comparison b/w endocrine and nervous system responses Endocrine vs exocrine glands Major endocrine organs in the body Regulation and control of hormone secretion Structure/relationship b/w hypothalamus and anterior and posterior pituitary (i.e., capillary beds and veins that transport hormones or neurons that extend to each region of the pituitary gland) Gonadotropins Anterior and posterior pituitary hormones and effector organs (eg TSH, ACTH, oxytocin, ADH) Aldosterone, thyroid hormones, calcitonin, PTH Pituitary gland structure and function Posterior pituitary hormone(s) triggers of secretion, target tissue, and action Nervous system-approx 20 question Cranial nerves and functions Spinal nerve number and typical structure including plexuses Reflexes (knee jerk, withdrawal), components of the reflex arc Meninges Neurotransmitter types and actions (excitatory, inhibitory or both) Continuous conduction vs saltatory conduction Brain structure and functions including cortical areas and associated areas, Cerebellum and Midbrain functions, and Brainstem functions and vital centers Ventricles and CSF.
