Anyone taking physiology by itself? My school doesn't offer A&P together.
I'm so glad that I found this group as I'm also in a separate Physio class this semester. We're using Silverthorn 4th ed and our lab manual was created by another teacher in the department. Good luck to everyone!
Oh and Crenation occurs because in a hypertonic solution there is more solute dissolved in the fluid outside the cell than inside the cell so water moves out of the cell in order to reach a balance.
Here's an interesting site here that just happened to be at the top of the list when I googled hypertonic solution, but it has an animation that kinda shows what happens: http://www.tvdsb.on.ca/WESTMIN/science/sbi3a1/cells/Osmosis.htm
I hope that helps!

Can someone help me answer this question?
What is the difference between a graph that shows the effect of breathing rate on blood oxygen levels and a graph that shows the effect of blood oxygen levels on breathing rate? Explain what the independent and dependent variables are for each graph.
I'm not sure what I have is right so I want to see what you guys think.
Here's my take on it. Does this sound right to everybody else?
Graph: Effect of breathing rate on blood O2 levels
independent variable: breathing rate
dependent variable: blood O2 levels
Graph: Effect of blood O2 levels on breathing rate
independent variable: blood O2 levels
dependent variable: breathing rate
The thing that varies independently is the thing that then affects the value of the dependent variable.

Himalayangirl-
I am using the same textbook! We are using a lab manual that one of our professors wrote though. We have gone over Chapters 1, 2, 3, and 4 to this point. Most of it is chem review but it's amazing how much of that chem I forgot! Or blocked...I don't like chem.
Does anyone have any ideas on how we would like to "study" together? Should we just toss out questions to each other as they come up?
