II. Sexual reproduction of Angiosperms: Alternation of Generations
Plant Hormones
• Auxin• Cytokinins• Giberrellins• Abscisic Acid• Ethylene• Brassinosteroids
Plant responses• Phototropism• Photoperiodism• Defense
Give an example of negative feedback in detail
Urine Formation• Filtration – blood pressure drives
filtration at the glomerulus– The filtrate (stuff that came out of the blood)
continues flowing through the renal tubule. – 180 liters of fluid every 24 hours.
• Reabsorption– Selectively reclaims just eh right amounts of
substances, such as water, electrolytes, and glucose that the body requires.
• Secretion• Hydrogen ions and certain toxins are removed
from the blood
• Urinary excretion
Glomerular filtration + tubular secretion – tubular reabsorption = Urine
Countercurrent Mechanism
Urine Formation: Collecting Duct• Reabsorption of water• Antidiuretic Hormone
controls the concentration of your urine. – Hypothalamus monitors– Posterior pituatary
gland secretes it– It changes the water
permeability of the collecting duct (see next slide)
Effect of ADH on urine formation
Immune System• 1st line of defense
– Barrier– skin
– Traps– mucous membranes, cilia,
hair, earwax– Elimination
– coughing, sneezing, urination, diarrhea
– Unfavorable pH– stomach acid, sweat, saliva,
urine– Lysozyme enzyme
– digests bacterial cell walls– tears, sweat
• 2nd line of defense– attack pathogens, but don’t
“remember” for next time• leukocytes
– phagocytic white blood cells
– macrophages, neutrophils, natural killer cells
• complement system– proteins that destroy cells
• inflammatory response– increase in body temp.– increase capillary
permeability– attract macrophages
Immune System• 3rd line of defense
– Specific defense with memory • lymphocytes
– B cells– T cells
• antibodies – immunoglobulins
– Responds to…• antigens
– cellular name tags» specific pathogens » specific toxins» abnormal body cells
(cancer
• Major histocompatibility (MHC) proteins – proteins which
constantly carry bits of cellular material from the cytosol to the cell surface
– “snapshot” of what is going on inside cell
– give the surface of cells a unique label or “fingerprint”
Endocrine System
In addition, it increases heart rate, stroke volume (amount of blood pumped from ventricles) and dilates the bronchioles in the lungs
Simple Hormone Pathway Negative Feedback
• The response leads to the reduction in the stimulus and the pathway shuts off.
• Here, release of bicarbonate raises the pH in the duodenum
• Negative feedback is when the response REDUCES the stimulus
Simple Hormone Pathway Positive Feedback
• Oxytocin in mammals regulates milk release during nursing.
• Oxytocin also induces target cells in the uterine muscles
• Positive feedback is when the response REINFORCES the stimulus
Antagonistic Hormones
• Two hormones that operate in a simple endocrine pathway regulated by negative feedback.
• Diabetes Type I• Diabetes Type II
• Insulin and Glucagon controlling blood glucose levels
• Blood Glucose– Insulin released which
triggers the uptake of glucose from the blood
• Blood Glucose– Glucagon promotes the
release of glucose into the blood
Post-synaptic membranes or Motor Endplates Neurotransmitter binds to Neurotransmitter receptor Neurotransmitter receptor changes shape Sodium Channel opens Sodium flows in Other Sodium Channels open = “Threshold” Potassium Channels open slowly Sodium Channels close Potassium Channels close.Resting Na+ channel open Na+ closed, K+ open Resting “polarized” “depolarized” “repolarization” “polarized”
G. How this communication takes place: 1. Action potential moves down the neuron through the axon,
then through the axon terminals (“telodendria”), and finally through the synaptic end bulbs. a. Synaptic end bulbs contain vesicles of neurotransmitter
2. Voltage-gated calcium channels in the membrane of the end bulb open.
3. Calcium diffuses in. 4. Calcium’s presence causes the synaptic vesicles to fuse with the
cell membrane to release neurotransmitter (exocytosis) into the synaptic cleft.
5. Neurotransmitters diffuse across the synaptic cleft and bind to neurotransmitter receptors on the membrane on the opposite side of the cleft.
6. Neurotransmitters are broken down by enzymes in the synaptic cleft.
