middle ear (tympanic cavity)

Air filled cavity in the temporal bone, encloses and protects the auditory ossicles, contains the auditory or eustachian tube, permits equal pressure on each side of the tympanic membrane (ears popping ), connected to the nasopharynx can allow microorganisms to enter causing the otitis media or er infection, normally flat or closed but swallowing or yawning opens it u to equalize pressure in the ear with atmospheric pressure.

Equilibrium

Anterior, posterior, and lateral semicircular ducts are continuous with the utricle (provide sensations of gravity and linear acceleration) Each duct contains an ampulla with receptor regions called crista containing hair cells and attached to the gelatinous cupula. Hair cells monitored by the dendrites of sensory neurons. The surface has steriocillia, when pressure is applied it alters the rate of release of chemical transmitter providing information about direction and strength of stimuli. Provides information about movement one way distorts receptor process and movement in opposite direction inhibits them, each of the three ducts responds to one of these rotational movements

foeva centralis

Area of most acute vision responsible for sharp vision when reading watching driving etc

internal eye muscles

acessory structures of the eye

Eyelids (palpebrae), eyelashes, tarsal glands, lacrimal caruncle, conjunctiva , lacrimal apparatus, cornea, iris, photopupillary/accomidation reflex, pupil, lens

lacrimal apparatus

Gland above the lateral end of the eye in the fronta bone, secretions from the acrimal gland contain lysozoem antibodies to kill bacteria, release dillute salt through tears and through several small ducts, tears form in the lacrimal glands, wash across the eye and collect in the lacrimal lake, pass through the lacrimal punctae, lacrimal canniliculi, lacrimal sac and nasolacrimal duct, emotional tears is not understood.

taste receptors

Gustation or taste clustered in taste buds adult has 3000, kids have 10,000 (why they hate veggies) replaced every two weeks; contain basal/stem cells, gustatory cells extend taste hairs through a narrow taste pore, taste buds are monitored by cranial nerves, synapse within the solitary nucleus of the medulla oblongata, then on thalamus and primary sensory cortex

Glaucoma

Increased pressure due to backup of aqueous humor fluid, causes blindness over time

taste and age

taste sensitivity shows the number of taste buds you have, the number of taste buds you have declines with age

pupil

the adjustable opening in the center of the eye through which light enters (like a camera)

Retina

the light-sensitive inner surface of the eye, containing the receptor rods and cones plus layers of neurons that begin the processing of visual information

auditory ossicles

three small bones linked together that connect the eardrum to the inner ear, malleus, incus, stapes, tensor tympani, stapedius muscle, malleus receives vibration from tympanic membrane and passes it to the incus which is attached to the stapes. Stapes is bound to the oval window and the vestibule

blind spot (optic disc)

where the optic nerve leaves the eye; there are no photoreceptor cells (cones) here, the overlap of the visual fields and inputs from both eyes to each optic cortex for depth perception

Sclera

The Eye

Composed of three layers: Outer fibrous tunic, Middle vascular tunic, and retina

retina (sensory tunic)

Contains photoreceptor cells (rods and cones)

Primary taste sensations

SWEET (OH; glucose), salty (alkaloids; NACL), sour (H+; acids like lemon), bitter (metal ions; ie calcium in veggies) and umami

Pinna

Shell Shaped outer ear provides directional sensitivity, like hands over your ears.

External acoustic canal

Short Chamber Contains Ceremonious glands which secrete cerumen or ear wax, keeps foreign objects away from the tympanic membrane, earwax slows the growth of microorganisms to reduce infection

Eye disorders

Cojuctivitis, night blindness, color blindness, cateracts, glaucoma, myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism

anterior eye chamber

- Contains clear watery aqueus humor -provides nutrients to lens and cornea -drains through the canal of schlemn to vascular system to maintain proper eye pressure

Posterior eye chamber

- Has vitreous humor reinforce the eyeball gel like not recycled and permanent

Nasal Olfactory Organs

- Olfactory epithelium has olfactory receptors, supporting cells, basal cells --Olfactory receptors are modified neurons cover the interior surface of the cribriform plate, superior perpendicular plate, and superior nasal conchae, contains olfactory glands or bowman's glands which are covered by a thick pigmented mucus, olfactory reception involves detecting dissolved chemicals as they interact with odorant binding proteins.

Sound Transmission (Go over three times)

1. Sound waves enters the ear canal and reaches the tympanic membrane which vibrates, 2. Auditory ossicles conduct vibration into the inner ear, -tensor tympani and stapedius muscles contract to reduce the amount of movement when loud sounds arrive. 3 Movement at the oval window applies pressure to the perilymph of the cochlear duct, perilymph fluid in the cochlea vibrates, 4. Membranous labyrinth suspended in perilymph containing endolymph fuid vibrates, pressure waves distort basilar membrane. 5. Hair cells of the organ corti are pushed against the tactoral membrane 6. Impulse is transmitted through the auditory nerves and to the brain, intensity is the energy content of a sound measured in decibels.

How does vision work? (Read through the steps three times)

1. Vision from the field of view transfers from one side to another while in transit 2. Depth perception is only obtained by comparing the relative positions of objects 3. Light from object is refracted, inverted and reduced in size, by the cornea and lens. 4. Image will be sent to the retinal surface and makes nerve impulses 5. The cornea lens system produces an image of an object on the retinal surfaces, process known as accommodation 6. Vision is dependent on context/lighting situation 7. Finally, the reduction in size allows it all to "fit" on our retina 8. The brain flips the image and superimposes it onto our eyes.

the difference between 20/20 vision and a worse vision, like 20/500 (difference in sight)

20/20: You can see what is 20 feet away perfectly, at 20/500 you see what is 500 feet away like what most people would see at 20 feet.

sensorineural deafness

A permanent lack of hearing caused by a lesion or damage of an auditory nerve (cochlear nerve, hair cells in the organ of corti), caused by a blood clot in the auditory complex of the brain listening to a loud noise.

osseous

Bony and membranous labyrinth with two conduction fluids that regulate electrochemical impulses of hair cells. -Perilymph is fluid resembling cerebrospinal fluid -Endolymph is fluid with electrolyte concentrations

color blindness

Lack of all three cones, sex inked predominantly in males, most common lack of red or green receptors

Cateracts

Lens hard and opaque as we age treatment is removal of lens and lens transplant, laser it off

How does the lens focus?

Light is refracted to it as it passes through the lens, accomidation is the process b which the lens adjusts to focus images or to light the retina, shape changed by cilliary muscles, normal vision is 20/20

lens

Major refractory structure, posterior to the cornea and forms anterior boundary of posterior cavity, posterior cavity contains a gel-like vitreous humor, helps to focus

round window

Membrane covered opening in the inner wall of the middle ear that compensates for changes in cochlear pressure, separates the perilymph from the air spaces.

Cones

Mostly concentrated in the macula, in the foeva centralis (eyes central vision), perceive color, sensitive pigments to the three wave lengths (RGB), need a bright light to see color (ie why in the day color is more visible than at night, because you are using different muscles) (all three channels = white, none = black)

conjunctiva

Mucous membrane covered by stratified squamous epithelium, covers most of the exposed surface of your eye (inner and outer surface), secretes mucus to lubricate the eye. (the stuff underneath your eyelids)

olfactory sensing (nose)

Occurs on the surface of the olfactory cillia which is sent to the olfactory bulb, odorants are small chemicals that stimulate olfactory receptors small organic molecules (strongest ones are soluble in water and liquid) Number of receptors decline with age (Read pg 551 in ur book)

pupil

Opening to allow light reach the lens size adjusts with light, more light = smaller pupil less light= larger pupil

Inner Ear: Osseous Labyrinth

Osseous, Bony Chmaber (Cochlea, Vestibule, Semicircular canals)
