BIOB34H3 Lecture Notes - Lecture 5: Iodised Salt, Thyroid, Thyroidectomy
Document Summary
= leakier (to ions & protons) = spend more energy pump against that leak = higher mr: factors effecting bmr/smr, thyroid hormones, more true in vertebrates (fishes, amphibians, etc, not like us) Atpase: ths exert its affects by altering those processes, study: using mice, specifically looked at the liver of these mice and its ability to synthesis protein. Interested in protein synthesis (major contributor to mr) Liver does the most protein synthesis in body (built by liver then secreted out into blood: hepatic portal vein: one of the major blood vessels that brings blood to the liver. Two graphs: the 3 nonlinear line turn int linear lines after using logarithmic values, log equation like the equation of a straight line. *logarithmic equation: log (x2) = blog (x1) + log (a) *equation of a straight line: x2 = c + ax1b. In logarithmic equation b is the slope of the line (scaling coefficient: fig.
