To explain the function of the various hormones and the results of their hyposecretion or hypersecretion. PART A—OVERVIEW OF THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM The endocrine system works with the nervous system in controlling much of what goes on in the body. REVIEW these basic facts regarding the endocrine system: It is composed of glands. Glands produce hormones. Hormones are chemical messengers that are released directly into the blood (no ducts). Hormones work at specific locations (targets). Hormones work by attaching to receptors at the target. Receptors may be on the target cell membrane or inside the target cell (intracellular). The pituitary is often called the master gland of the body since it oversees much of the action of other glands. The pituitary gland is controlled by the hypothalamus. The pituitary gland is functionally and structurally related to the hypothalamus. Structural relationships include direct axonal connections between the hypothalamus and the posterior pituitary and a specialized “portal” system (a capillary network). Functional relationships include release of releasing and inhibiting hormones by the hypothalamus which affect the anterior pituitary and the production of oxytocin and ADH by the hypothalamus which are stored and released as needed by the posterior pituitary.

To review and understand the cardiac conduction system, the cardiac cycle and heart sounds associated with it. To identify normal and abnormal wave configurations on an ECG. PART A—RADIAL PULSE As blood is forced out of the heart from ventricular contraction, it causes a surging movement of blood through the arteries as the ventricles contract (systole) and then relax (diastole). These waves in blood flow are called pulses. Pulses are normally felt or palpated at pressure points and are more easily palpated in areas where an artery runs over a bony prominence. Use the index and middle finger on one hand to palpate your pulse on the opposite wrist. The radial pulse is palpable just lateral to the tendons on the ventral side of the wrist. Once you obtain a pulse, count the number of pulses that occur in 15 seconds and record your pulse below: _________ pulses 4 = ___________ pulses/min. Record the pulse of a lab partner using the same method as above. Record the results for each of the circumstances listed below: Pulse while lying down ____________ /min Pulse while sitting _________ /min Pulse while standing _________ /min Pulse after hyperventilating for 30 seconds (breathing rapidly and deeply) ____________ /min. Answer the following questions. 1. What happened to the pulse rate as your partner sat up? When they stood? 2. What specific receptors were most likely responsible for triggering the change in pulse rate as the body position changed? Where in the body can you find these receptors? ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2B—REBECCA LOOMIS Page 109 3. What happened to the pulse rate after hyperventilation? 4. What receptors were most likely responsible for the change in pulse that occurred following hyperventilation? To what do these receptors respond? PART B—ARTERIAL BLOOD PRESSURE Blood pressure is the force exerted on the interior walls of vessels by blood as it surges through them. Pressure exerted during contraction of the ventricle (systole) is higher than the pressure exerted when the ventricles are relaxed (diastole). Measure the blood pressure of your LAB PARTNER using a stethoscope and a sphygmomanometer. First, practice listening for blood pulsing through the brachial artery by placing the stethoscope on a lab partner's brachial artery, which is located in the antecubital region. Once you are able to hear the blood flow, you may begin taking the blood pressure reading using the following procedure: Place the cuff of the sphygmomanometer over your lab partner’s upper arm. Slowly, pump air into it by using the rubber bulb. When you can no longer hear the blood flow (approx. 150 mm Hg), stop the inflation. You have compressed the brachial artery to the point that blood is no longer flowing through it. Gradually, release air from the cuff as you listen to the brachial artery through the stethoscope. When you hear a sharp, clear sound as the blood flow resumes record the pressure at this time as the systolic pressure. Systolic pressure _____________ mm Hg Continue releasing the cuff. The point at which you can no longer hear the blood pulsing through the artery is the systolic pressure. Record the pressure at the first point the sound disappears. Diastolic pressure ____________ mm Hg Written in the conventional method, the blood pressure of your lab partner is ___________________. Answer the following questions. 1. Is the blood pressure reading you just took a systemic or pulmonary reading? 2. How does pulmonary blood pressure compare to systemic (higher or lower)?

ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2B—REBECCA LOOMIS Page 116 ATRIOVENTRICULAR BUNDLE (BUNDLE OF HIS) SINOATRIAL (SA) NODE BUNDLE BRANCHES ATRIOVENTRICULAR (AV) NODE Interventricular septum PURKINJE FIBERS (SUBENDOCARDIAL CONDUCTING NETWORK) SEQUENCE OF EXCITATION 1. SINOATRIAL (SA) NODE = Pacemaker Mass of autorythmic cells located in right atrium just inferior to the entrance of the superior vena cava. Depolarizes spontaneously 70-80 times/min, consequently it sets the pace for the heart as a whole. Depolarization spreading throughout atria causes them to contract. 2. ATRIOVENTRICULAR (AV) NODE Located just above the tricuspid valve in the inferior interatrial septum. Depolarization wave passes from SA node throughout the atria to the AV node. Passes impulses to AV bundle. 3. ATRIOVENTRICULAR BUNDLE (Bundle of His) Runs from AV node to interventricular septum where it branches into right and left bundle branches. From AV node, the impulse sweeps to the AV bundle. 4. BUNDLE BRANCHES Right and left bundle branches course along the interventricular septum toward apex of the heart. 5. PURKINJE FIBERS Carry impulses from bundle branches to the heart apex, ventricle walls, and papillary muscles. Supply the papillary muscles before supplying lateral walls of ventricles, thus ensuring closure of the AV valves. ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2B—REBECCA LOOMIS Page 117 ATRIAL SYSTOLE SVC LA RA LV IVC RV Ventricular Filling Atrial Contraction Pressure in the heart is low, and blood returning from circulation is flowing passively through atria and into ventricle. Aortic and pulmonary semilunar valves are closed. AV valves (tricuspid and bicuspid) are open. Atria contract propelling blood into ventricles. Duration is 0.1 sec. VENTRICULAR SYSTOLE Contraction Phase Ejection Phase Begins as the atria go into diastole (relaxing state). AV and semilunar valves are closed until pressure forces semilunar valves open and blood is pushed from ventricles into pulmonary trunk and the aorta. Duration is 0.3 sec. VENTRICULAR DIASTOLE Occurs following ventricular contraction. Ventricles relax. AV valves reopen and filling begins.

PART A—MEASUREMENT OF INDIVIDUAL LUNG VOLUMES Lung volumes vary with age, sex, size and respiratory health. Keep this in mind when measuring lung volumes. VITAL CAPACITY Obtain a dry spirometer and STERILIZE it as follows: Open the top portion of the spirometer by turning it CLOCKWISE. Spray 95% Alcohol inside the LOWER portion of the apparatus as well as the INSIDE of the mouthpiece nozzle. DRY the bottom half of the spirometer with paper towels. Use COTTON SWABS provided to dry the inside of the mouthpiece. Use the ALCOHOL PADS to wipe the surface of the UPPER portion of the spirometer. DO NOT spray alcohol on this part since it will damage the instrument. Measure your vital capacity. Obtain a mouthpiece from the bin and place it in the mouthpiece nozzle. Hold spirometer by one hand and confirm that indicator points at zero. If indicator does not point at zero, adjust to zero by moving upper outer ring to right or left. When using, DO NOT COVER UP THE SMALL HOLES which are at the side of the upper body with the hands. Inhale and exhale forcibly several times to warm up. Next, inhale deeply stretching body upward. When lungs are full, set mouthpiece between lips. Breathe out strongly in one motion, without leaking. It is a knack to breathe out as completely as possible, within 5-6 seconds. For fixed measurement, it is necessary to keep the same way of breathing out. After breathing out, read measurement on indicator. Repeat this procedure two more times for a total of THREE trials. ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2B—REBECCA LOOMIS Page 133 When done, DISCARD MOUTHPIECES AND ALCOHOLS PADS IN THE TRASH BIN! Calculate your average vital capacity by adding up all three readings and dividing by three. Enter your average vital capacity into your table. Vital Capacity 1 Vital Capacity 2 Vital Capacity 3 TOTAL Avg. Vital Capacity (Total/3) Compare your vital capacity with the expected value for a person your age and size given in the vital capacity table. Enter the expected value into Table 1. Calculate your expected VC below. Show your calculations below and enter the % in Table 1. Your value % Expected VC = Expected value x 100 TIDAL VOLUME (TV) Tidal volume (TV-air inhaled or exahaled during normal resting breathing) is too small of a volume to measure with our spirometers. Therefore you must estimate your tidal volume. Calculate your average TV by taking your average vital capacity and multiplying it by 0.1 (TV is usually about 10% of your vital capacity). Enter the value into Table 1 Tidal Volume (VC x 0.1) EXPIRATORY RESERVE VOLUME (ERV) Determine your expiratory reserve volume (ERV). Do this by exhaling normally (not into the spirometer) then, forcefully exhale as much as you can into the spirometer. Again, be sure the spirometer is set at zero before you begin. Record the reading in Table 1 (ERV is usually about 25% of VC). INSPIRATORY RESERVE VOLUME (IRV) Calculate your inspiratory reserve volume (IRV) by plugging the known values into the equation below. SHOW your calculations below and enter the number in Table 1 (IRV is usually about 65% of VC). Vital Capacity = TV + ERV + IRV ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2B—REBECCA LOOMIS Page 134 MINUTE RESPIRATORY VOLUME (MRV) Calculate your minute respiratory volume. SHOW your calculations below and enter the value in Table 1. Respiratory rate (breaths/min) Minute Respiratory Volume = TV Respiratory Rate DEAD SPACE (DS) Calculate the dead space. SHOW your calculations below and enter the number in Table 1. Dead Space = TV x 30% ALVEOLAR VENTILATION RATE (AVR) The minute respiratory volume does not take into account the volume of air wasted in the dead space. To get a more accurate measurement of respiratory efficiency, calculate the alveolar ventilation rate (AVR). SHOW your calculations below and enter the number in Table 1. AVR = (TV - Dead Space) Respiratory Rate RESIDUAL VOLUME (RV) Residual volume (RV) is an amount of air that remains in the lungs even after a forceful expiration. This air helps to keep the alveoli open and prevent lung collapse. Normally it is around 1200 mL. in males and 1100 mL in females. Keep this in mind as you calculate total lung capacity below and answer the following questions. TOTAL LUNG CAPACITY (TLC) Total lung capacity (TLC) is the sum of all lung volumes (normally around 6000 mL in males). Calculate your TLC. SHOW your calculations below and enter the number in Table 1. Use your text to write a formula to determine your total lung capacity. Write the formula, show the calculations and your lung capacity as calculated below.

OVULATORY PHASE–Occurs at mid-cycle, between day 10-14 Secondary oocyte with its corona radiata are released into the peritoneal cavity when the ovarian wall ruptures. Only one follicle outstrips the others to become the dominant follicle that will undergo ovulation; the others degenerate (atretic follicles). LUTEAL PHASE–Period of corpus luteum activity, typically occurring 10 days after ovulation. Corpus luteum (yellow body) develops from granulosa and thecal cells after secondary oocyte has been released secretes estrogen and progesterone for 10 days until fertilization occurs [1] if pregnancy occurs, corpus luteum persists until placenta takes over its hormone-producing duties [2] if pregnancy does not occur, corpus luteum degenerates in about 10 days to become corpus albicans (white body) and hormone secretion ceases ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2B—REBECCA LOOMIS Page 177 PUBERTY KEY Hypothalamus Hormone levels drop and uterine lining is shed Stimulates Inhibits GnRH Anterior pituitary Inhibitory effect on anterior pituitary release of FSH and LH [positive feedback] LH and some FSH surge at mid-cycle Slightly elevated estrogen levels inhibit FSH & LH release from anterior pituitary Anterior pituitary releases FSH and LH Corpus luteum degenerates (unless pregnancy causes production of human chorionic gonadotropin [HCG] by developing embryo High estrogen and progesterone levels Estrogen levels peak Estrogen Growing follicle FSH and LH stimulate follicular growth and maturation ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2B—REBECCA LOOMIS LH Mature follicle Thecal and granulosa cells produce estrogens as follicle matures OVULATION LH surge causes resumption and completion of Meiosis I in primary oocyte and secondary oocyte formed continues on to metaphse II Corpus luteum LH promotes corpus luteum formation and thus secretion of estrogen and progesterone Page 178 Urinary bladder Ductus (vas) deferens Seminal vesicle Prostatic urethra Ejaculatory duct Prostate gland Membranous urethra Corpus cavernosum Bulbo-urethral gland Corpus spongiosum Spongy (penile) urethra Epididymis Testis Scrotum Glans penis Prepuce SAGITTAL VIEW Left ureter Urinary bladder Right ureter Seminal vesicle Left ejaculatory duct Right ejaculatory duct Prostate gland Bulbo-urethral gland Membranous urethra Corpora spongiosum Bulbo-urethral duct Ductus (vas) deferens Corpus cavernosum Spongy (penile) urethra Epididymis Glans penis Testis ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2B—REBECCA LOOMIS Page 179 Epididymis (head) Ductus (vas) deferens Efferent ductules Seminiferous tubules Lobule Duct of epididymis Rete testis Seminiferous tubules Testis Tunica albuginea Epididymis (tail) ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2B—REBECCA LOOMIS Page 180 Acrosome cap [contains hydrolytic enzymes] HEAD Nucleus [23 chromosomes; 1N] NECK MIDPIECE [contains mitochondria] TAIL [Flagellum] ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2B—REBECCA LOOMIS Page 181 Sertoli cells 2n 2n Spermatogonium (stem cells) Daughter cell remains at basal lamina as a precursor cell MITOSIS 2n Daughter cell 2n Primary Spermatocyte Basal lamina Sertoli cell nucleus MEIOSIS ENTERS MEIOSIS I MEIOSIS I COMPLETED n n Secondary Spermatocyte MEIOSIS II Early Spermatids n SPERMIOGENESIS n n n Late Spermatids Lumen of Seminiferous Tubules Spermatozoa ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2B—REBECCA LOOMIS Page 182 PUBERTY Hypothalamus Hypothalamus secretes GnRH Increased levels of testosterone inhibit hypothalamus secretion of GnRH and thus FSH release by anterior pituitary GnRH Testosterone LEYDIG CELLS Anterior pituitary Anterior pituitary secretes FSH and LH FSH Testosterone High sperm count prompts sertoli cells to release inhibin which inhibits hypothalamus release of GnRH and thus secretion of FSH and LH FSH stimulates development of seminiferous tubules and spermatogenesis Inhibin LH stimulates Leydig cells to produce testosterone which prompts spermatogenesis ABP SERTOLI CELL KEY Stimulates SEMINIFEROUS TUBULES Spermatogenesis Inhibits ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2B—REBECCA LOOMIS Page 183
