What structures in the nipple and areola cause the nipple to become erect and help in the discharge of milk? Correct Answer-Rings of smooth muscle are located in the areola and nipple areas of the breast. When this muscle tissue constricts, the nipple becomes erect, and during lactation, this results in the discharge of milk. This region has an abundance of nerve endings, which are in close approximation to the arterioles that supply blood to the nipple and areola. Stimulation of the nipple by t...

ADH - -increases permeability to water in cells of the distal tubule and collecting duct causing higher water reabsorption -increases aquaporin, water channels, content in the apical membrane -increases blood pressure and volume ANP - -decreases Na and water reabsorption -inhibits aldosterone and ADH release Buffering of H+ in the Urine - free H+ can be reabsorbed through a pump therefore we want it to bind to something Colloid Osmotic Pressure (COP) - -osmolarity of plasma proteins -25...

emphysema and fick's equation - airway obstruction as a result of inorganic particles --> triggers the production of elastase which breaks down elastin --> alveoli lose elastance --> alveoli recoil --> increase in T and decrease in A --> lower gas exchange inspired partial pressure - Pi,o2 = Fo2 * (Patm - Ph2o) air conditioning during inhalation: adds warmth and moisture to the gas --> water gets evaporated in the mucosa, generating a water pressure which decreases the at...

Newborn Cardiovascular Adaptation The first breath expands the lungs, decreasing pulmonary vascular resistance Clamping the cord increases systemic vascular resistance & left atrial pressure Changing the atrial pressures functionally closes the foramen ovale almost immediately after birth The increasing partial pressure of oxygen (PO2) constricts the ductus arterioles clamping & cutting the cord immediately closing the umbilical vein, arteries & ductus venosus Fetal Circulation *Ductus Venosus*...
