During Contraction • Sarcomere shortens • Z discs move closer • I band shortens • A band stays same ⸻ 8. Role of Calcium & ATP • Calcium: Exposes binding sites • ATP: Powers contraction & releases myosin ⸻ 9. Cross Bridge Myosin head binding to actin ⸻ 10. Neuromuscular Junction • Nerve releases acetylcholine (ACh) • ACh binds receptors • Muscle action potential starts ⸻ 11. Steps of Skeletal Muscle Contraction 1. Nerve impulse 2. ACh release 3. Muscle action potential 4. Ca²⁺ released from SR 5. Cross bridge formation 6. Power stroke 7. ATP binds & detaches 8. Relaxation when Ca²⁺ removed ⸻ 12. Three Ways Muscles Produce ATP • Direct phosphorylation (creatine phosphate) • Anaerobic glycolysis • Aerobic respiration ⸻ 13. Oxygen & Lactic Acid • Aerobic: Requires oxygen • Anaerobic glycolysis: Produces lactic acid ⸻ 14. Fastest Energy System Direct phosphorylation ⸻ 15. Isotonic vs Isometric • Isotonic: Muscle shortens (lifting weight) • Isometric: Tension, no movement (holding weight) ⸻ ✅ Chapter 7 – Nervous System 1. CNS Brain + spinal cord Function: control center ⸻ 2. PNS Cranial nerves + spinal nerves ⸻ 3. Afferent vs Efferent • Afferent: Sensory → to CNS • Efferent: Motor → from CNS ⸻ 4. Three Parts of Neuron • Dendrites (receive) • Cell body • Axon (send signal) ⸻ 5. Synapse Junction between neurons Synaptic cleft = gap between them ⸻ 6. Neurotransmitters Chemical messengers between neurons ⸻ 7. Three Neuron Types • Sensory • Motor • Interneurons ⸻ 8. CNS Neuroglia • Astrocytes • Oligodendrocytes • Microglia • Ependymal cells ⸻ 9. Action Potential Phases • Resting (-70mV) • Depolarization (Na⁺ in) • Repolarization (K⁺ out) • Hyperpolarization ⸻ 10. Myelinated Axons Faster Because Saltatory conduction (jumps between nodes) ⸻ 11. Reflex & Components Automatic response 5 parts: 1. Receptor 2. Sensory neuron 3. Integration center 4. Motor neuron 5. Effector ⸻ 12. Four Lobes of Cerebrum • Frontal → movement • Parietal → sensation • Temporal → hearing • Occipital → vision ⸻ 13. Thalamus, Hypothalamus, Epithalamus • Thalamus → sensory relay • Hypothalamus → homeostasis • Epithalamus → melatonin ⸻ 14. Brainstem Parts • Midbrain → reflexes • Pons → breathing control • Medulla → heart rate ⸻ 15. Cerebellum Balance & coordination ⸻ 16. Meninges • Dura mater • Arachnoid mater • Pia mater Protect CNS ⸻ 17. CSF Cerebrospinal fluid Found in ventricles & around brain/spinal cord ⸻ 18. Spinal Cord Structure: gray center, white outside Function: reflexes & signal pathway ⸻ 19. Sympathetic vs Parasympathetic • Sympathetic → fight or flight • Parasympathetic → rest and digest ⸻ 20. Effects on Organs Sympathetic: • ↑ heart rate • Dilates pupils • Stops digestion Parasympathetic: • ↓ heart rate • Constricts pupils • Stimulates digestion ⸻ 21

HIS 1101 — Origins: The Analogical, Porous World (Vocabulary Flashcards)

Here are the key terms and definitions extracted from the document: 1. Crime-Scene Reconstruction: A method used to support a likely sequence of events through physical evidence and witness statements. 2. Bloodstain Pattern Analysis (BPA): The study of bloodstains to interpret the events of a crime scene. 3. Impact Angle: The angle at which a blood droplet strikes a surface, determined using the equation:  4. Surface Texture: A key factor in determining bloodstain characteristics, with harder, less porous surfaces resulting in less spatter. 5. Contact/Transfer Stains: Created when a blood-covered object comes into contact with another surface. • Static Transfers: No lateral movement (e.g., handprints, footprints). • Dynamic Transfers: Lateral motion occurs (e.g., swipes and wipes). 6. Swipe Pattern: Bloodstain resulting from the transfer of blood from a blood-bearing surface onto another surface, indicating motion. 7. Spatter Stains: Bloodstains dispersed through the air due to an external force. • Expiration Pattern: Blood projected from the airways. • Gunshot Spatter: Fine forward spatter from an exit wound and back spatter from an entrance wound. • Arterial Spurt: Blood spurting from a damaged artery due to heart pressure. 8. Cast-Off Pattern: Blood flung from a blood-covered object in motion, commonly seen with weapons. 9. Void Pattern: A blank space in bloodstain deposition due to an object or person blocking the spatter. 10. Flow Patterns: Bloodstains created by the flow of blood under gravitational force, which can indicate movement. 11. Pool of Blood: Blood that collects in a level and undisturbed area, which can give clues about timing. 12. Altered Bloodstains: Bloodstains affected by external factors such as insect activity, clotting, diffusion, or cleanup attempts. 13. Documentation Methods: • Grid Method: A grid overlay is placed on the bloodstain pattern for measurement. • Perimeter Ruler Method: Rulers are placed around stains to provide scale in photographs. 14. Area of Convergence: The point on a two-dimensional plane where bloodstains originated. 15. Area of Origin: The three-dimensional space where blood was projected from, determined using string or laser methods
