The heart is a multicellular organ consisting of endothelial cells, myocytes, fibroblasts, and inflammatory cells. Communication between these different cell types is crucial for regulation of normal cardiac function. Based on your understanding, determine which type of communication will be observed between these different types of cells in the heart?

Which of the following molecules or ions would normally need to use a membrane protein in order to move through the cell membrane?

The type of xdcr that does NOT allow the operator to vary the focus is:

The range equation describes the relationship between:

When a neuron responds to a particular neurotransmitter by opening gated ion channels, the neurotransmitter is serving as which part of the signal pathway? 

These xdcr steer the beam with a motor and focus the beam with an acoustic lens or a curved PZT element.

In a phased array system, everything listed below is possible EXCEPT:

If you wish to adjust the focusing characteristics while scanning with a curved linear array, what type of focusing are you manipulating?

If you wish to perform an ABD sonogram with the largest possible field of view in both the near and at depth, what type of array xdcr would be most preferable?

Annular arrays are most commonly categorized as:
