Descending limb of loop of henle

Only permeable to water. Osmolarity increases deeper into medulla so more water reabsorption as descends. Osmo can be regulated by kidney to control reabsorption

Countercurrent multiplier system

Vasa recta and nephron flow opposite so nephron always against hypertonic blood for reabsorption (can’t reach equilibrium)

Ascending limb of loop of henle

Only permeable to salt. Salt flows out more as ascending to cortex due to lower sodium concentration

Ascending limb of loop of henle

Only permeable to salt. Salt flows out more as ascending to cortex due to lower sodium concentration

Structure of muscle

Sarcomere attach end to end forming myofibrils. Covered by sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) which has high Ca (sarcoplasm is modified cytoplasm out of SR). Membrane of myocyte with all this stuff crammed in is sarcolemma (can make propagate action potentials and distribute with transverse tubules or t tubules) transverse to myofibrils. Each myocyte has many myofibrils and is also known as muscle fibers with nucleus on periphery

Contraction initiation

Starts at neuromuscular junction (muscle synapse). AP goes to nerve terminal (synaptic bouton). Acetylcholine through synapse. End terminal is motor end plate

Motor unit

Initiation after acetylcholine to motor end plate

AP goes sarcolemma down t tubules to SR which releases Ca. Ca binds to troponin changing conformation of tropomyosin( they are bound). This changes myosin binding sites on actin to expose to myosin

Sarcomere shortening

ADP pi release from being attached to myosin allows myosin to bind and pull exposed sites on actin. This shortens sacromere. Release of the hydrolyzed adp pi is what gives the energy. After this a new atp hydrolyzes and attached to myosin which recocks it
