Doherty, Jennifer H.; Cerchiara, Jack A.; Scott, Emily E.; Jescovitch, Lauren N.; McFarland, Jenny L.; Haudek, Kevin C.; Wenderoth, Mary Pat – Advances in Physiology Education, 2023
The Physiology Core Concept of flow down gradients is a major concept in physiology, as pressure gradients are the key driving force for the bulk flow of fluids in biology. However, students struggle to understand that this principle is foundational to the mechanisms governing bulk flow across diverse physiological systems (e.g., blood flow,…
