Station C: Nerve Impulse Mechanism 21. 25. Explain the mechanism by which a nerve impulse travels along a nerve cell. Use the diagrams if it will help you with your explanation. Sodium-potassium pump Action Potential Graph Sodium pump explained Neurons have a charge difference from the extracellular fluid surrounding them and this difference is termed a potential. The nerve impulse uses sodium and potassium ions to change potential forming an impulse or action potential by depolarization and repolarization and is termed its ACTION POTENTIAL Na +- K + pump - Mechanism for nerve impulse movement o The cell membrane of the neuron has thousands of tiny molecules called gates which allow sodium or potassium ions to pass through o Generally the gates are closed when the neuron is at rest o A nerve impulse begins when an impulse disturbs the cell membrane enough to OPEN the Sodium Gates. o The opening of the sodium gates allows sodium ions to MOVE INTO the neuron causing the inside to become more Positive than the outside with is called depolarized o As the impulse passes, the Potassium Gates OPEN allowing potassium ions to FLOW OUT so the inside resumes a negative charge and is termed repolarized. After a nerve impulse there is a short period when the neuron cannot transmit an impulse while it returns to normal the Refractory Period when the sodium-potassium pumps o returns sodium ions to the outside and potassium ions back to the inside returning the neuron to its RESTING POTENTIAL For Questions 26 30, use the letters from the Action Potential Graph to answer the questions? 26.

Station D: Synapse & Brain Waves 31. -35.

Station G: Skin 61. 65. What pigments are responsible for skin color and what factors are involved in skin color? How does UV light affect the skin Skin Pigments - three pigments are responsible for skin color- melanin, carotene, hemoglobin genes, sun exposure, volume of blood in the capillaries and RBC unoxygenated blood determine skin color Melanin is located mostly in epidermis Number of melanocytes are about the same in all races Difference in skin color is due to the amount of pigment that melanocytes produce and disperse to keratinocytes. Freckles are caused by the accumulation of melanin in patches Liver spots are also caused by the accumulation of melanin Melanocytes synthesize melanin from an amino acid called tyrosine along with an enzyme called tyrosinase. All this occurs in the melanosome which is an organelle in the melanocyte. Two types of melanin: eumelanin which is brownish black and pheomelanin which is reddish yellow Fair-skinned people have more pheomelanin and dark skinned people have more eumelanin UV light increases enzymatic activity in the melanosomes and leads to increasedmelanin production. A tan is achieved because the amount of melanin has increased as well as the darkness of the melanin. (Eumelanin provides protection from UV exposure while pheomelanin tends to break down with too much UV exposure) The melanin provides protection from the UV radiation but prolonged exposure may cause skin cancer. 66. 70. How does aging affect the skin and the glands and accessory organs within the skin? Beginning in our 20s, the effects of aging begin to be visible in the skin. Stem cell activity declines: skin thin, repair difficult Epidermal dendritic cells decrease: reduced immune response Vitamin D3 production declines: calcium absorption declines and brittle bones Glandular activity declines: skin dries, body can overheat Blood supply to dermis declines: tend to feel cold Hair follicles die or produce thinner hair Dermis thins and becomes less elastic wrinkles Sex characteristics fade: fat deposits spread out, hair patterns change Genetically programmed chronologic aging causes biochemical changes in collagen connective tissues that give skin its firmness and elasticity. The genetic program for each person is different, so the loss of skin firmness and elasticity occurs at different rates and different times in one individual as compared with another. As skin becomes less elastic, it also becomes drier. Underlying fat padding begins to disappear. With loss of underlying support by fat padding and connective tissues, the skin begins to sag. It looks less supple and wrinkles form. The skin may be itchy with increased dryness. A cut may heal more slowly. 14

Station K: Disorders Give the effects of the following drugs on the nervous system 101. Alcohol - central nervous system depressant cell membranes are highly permeable to alcohol so once in the bloodstream it can diffuse into almost all body tissues. It is absorbed in the stomach so it gets into the blood stream quickly and slows down function of the nervous system 102. Caffeine -- acts as a central nervous system stimulant - caffeine suppresses melatonin for up to 10 hours and also promotes adrenalin. Melatonin is strongly associated with quality sleep, while adrenalin is the neurotransmitter associated with alertness 103. Nicotine - small doses of nicotine have a stimulating action on the central nervous system it is highly addictive nicotine's effects on the brain cause an increased release of neurotransmitters associated with pleasure. The brain quickly adjusts to repeated nicotine consumption by decreasing the amount of neurotransmitters released. The effect of this increased tolerance is that the smoker must continue to use nicotine in order to avoid the feelings of discomfort associated with withdrawal from the drug. Irritability and anxiety often ensue during nicotine withdrawal 104. Distinguish between 1 st, 2 nd, and 3 rd degree burns. 1st degree burns skin is inflamed, red - surface layer of skin is shed 2nd degree burns deeper injury - blisters form as fluid builds up beneath outer layers of epidermis 3rd degree burns full thickness of skin is destroyed -sometimes even subcutaneous tissues results in ulcerating wounds For Questions 105-108, use the pictures (A,B, and C) of skin cancer. 105. Which picture is of Basal cell carcinoma? B 106. Which picture is of Squamous Cell Carcinoma? C 107. Which picture is of Melanoma? A 108. Which of these types of skin cancer is the most deadly? Why? Malignant Melanoma it spreads rapidly often begins in molds 109. Which type of cells are infected by the HIV virus within the immune system? HIV infects vital cells in the human immune system such as helper T cells, macrophages, and dendrite cells 110. Why is tissue matching so important in organ transplants? human immune system is designed to attack anything it doesn't recognize white blood cells recognize the body's tissues by looking for a set of antigens on the surface of each cell so it is important to find tissue that has as many of the right MHC markers as possible 22
