Anatomy & Physiology Module 1 & 2 Flashcards
IT IS THE SET OF METABOLIC PATHWAYS THAT BREAKS DOWN MOLECULES INTO SMALLER UNITS THAT ARE EITHER OXIDIZED TO RELEASE ENERGY OR USED IN OTHER ANABOLIC REACTION?
CATABOLISM
IT IS THE FAST-ACTING CONTROL SYSTEM OF THE BODY, AND IT ALSO RESPONDS TO INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL CHANGES BY ACTIVATING APPROPRIATE MUSCLES AND GLANDS?
NERVOUS SYSTEM
IT PROTECTS AND SUPPORTS BODY ORGANS, PROVIDES A FRAMEWORK THE MUSCLES USE TO CAUSE MOVEMENT?
SKELETAL SYSTEM
IS THE SET OF METABOLIC PATHWAYS THAT CONSTRUCT MOLECULES FROM SMALLER UNITS?
ANABOLISM
IT STUDY THE STRUCTURE OF BODY PARTS AND THEIR RELATIONSHIPS TO ONE ANOTHER?
ANATOMY
IT STUDY HOW THE BODY AND ITS PARTS WORK OR FUNCTION?
PHYSIOLOGY
IT STUDY THE LARGE BODY STRUCTURES THAT VISIBLE TO THE NAKED EYE, SUCH AS HEART, LUNGS, AND KIDNEY?
GROSS ANATOMY
WHAT IS THE ABILITY OF THE BODY TO MAINTAIN RELATIVELY STABLE INTERNAL CONDITIONS EVEN THOUGH THE OUTSIDE WORLD CHANGES CONTINUOUSLY CALLED?
HOMEOSTASIS
ANY FAILURE OF NORMAL PHYSIOLOGICAL FUNCTION THAT LEADS TO NEGATIVE SYMPTOMS CALLED?
DISEASE
IS AN INABILITY OF THE BODY TO RESTORE A FUNCTIONAL, STABLE INTERNAL ENVIRONMENT KNOWN AS?
HOMEOSTATIC IMBALANCE
IT CONTAINS CARBON AND MADE BY LIVING THINGS THINGS?
ORGANIC COMPOUNDS
IT MEASURES THE RELATIVE CONCENTRATION OF HYDROGEN IONS IN VARIOUS BODY FLUIDS?
pH
IT IS THE BASIC STRUCTURE OF THE BODY AND PLAYS VITAL ROLES IN CELL FUNCTION?
PROTEINS
LARGEST MOLECULES IN THE BODY AND INCLUDES TWO MAJOR CLASSES?
NUCLEIC ACIDS
IT ELIMINATES NITROGENOUS WASTES FROM THE BODY?
URINARY SYSTEM
IT ALLOWS MANIPULATION OF THE ENVIRONMENT, LOCOMOTION, AND FACIAL EXPRESSION?
MASCULAR SYSTEM
CONSIST OF DIFFERENT ORGANS THAT WORK TOGETHER CLOSELY?
ORGAN SYSTEM
ARE MADE UP OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF TISSUES?
ORGANS
IT PICKS UP FLUID LEAKED FROM BLOOD VESSELS AND RETURNS IT TO BLOOD?
LYMPHATIC SYSTEM/IMMUNITY
IT BREAKS DOWN FOOD INTO ABSORBABLE UNITS THAT ENTER THE BLOOD FOR DISTRIBUTION TO BODY CELLS?
DIGESTIVE SYSTEM
IT IS THE SMALLEST UNIT OF LIFE?
CELLS
ITS ALLOWS THE MEMBRANE TO COMMUNICATE WITH ITS ENVIRONMENT, RESPONSIBLE FOR SPECIALIZED MEMBRANE FUNCTION?
MEMBRANE PROTEINS
IT REQUIRES TRANSPORT PROTEINS THAT COMBINE SPECIFICALLY AND REVERSIBLY WITH THE TRANSPORTED SUBSTANCES?
ACTIVE TRANSPORT
IT IS A WHIPLIKE, MOTILE CELLULAR EXTENSIONS THAT OCCUR ON THE EXPOSED SURFACES OF CERTAIN CELLS?
CILIA
IT IS THE CONTROL CENTER AND CONTAINS THE INSTRUCTIONS TO BUILD NEARLY ALL THE BODY’S PROTEINS?
NUCLEUS
IT CARRIES THE CODED INFORMATION TO THE CYTOPLASM, WHERE PROTEIN SYNTHESIS OCCUR?
MESSENGER RNA
IT IS A GROUP OF CELLS THAT ARE SIMILAR IN STRUCTURE AND PERFORM A COMMON OR RELATED FUNCTION?
TISSUES
IT CONSISTS OF ONE OR MORE CELLS THAT MAKE AND SECRETE A PARTICULAR PRODUCT?
GLAND
IT IS A STRUCTURAL SUPPORT NETWORK MADE UP OF DIVERSE PROTEINS, SUGARS AND OTHER COMPONENTS AND RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PHYSICAL MAINTENANCE OF CELLS?
EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX
IT TRANSPORT REPIRATORY GASES, NUTRIENTS, WASTES, AND OTHER SUBSTANCES?
BLOOD
IT PROVIDES RESERVE FOOD FUEL; INSULATES AGAINST HEAT LOSS; SUPPOERTS AND PROTECTS ORGANS?
ADIPOSE
MAIN COMPONENTS OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM WHICH REGULATES AND CONTROLS BODY FUNCTION?
NERVOUS TISSUE
IT ALLOWS MATERIALS TO PASS BY DIFFUSION AND FILTRATION IN SITES WHERE PROTECTION IS NOT IMPORTANT?
EPITHELIAL: SIMPLE SQUAMOUS
IT IS A FINGER-LIKE EXTENSION OF THE PLASMA MEMBRANE THAT PROJECT FROM AN EXPOSED CELL SURFACE?
MICROVILLI
HAS A HIGHER CONCENTRATION OF NONPENETRATING SOLUTES THAN SEEN IN THE CELL, LOSE WATER, SHRIVEL OR CRENATE?
HYPERTONIC
IT DETERMINES WHICH SUBSTANCES ENTERS OR EXIT THE CELL?
SELECTIVE PERMEABILITY
IT IS THE DIFFUSION OF A SOLVENT THROUGH A MEMBRANE?
OSMOSIS
IT IS A SYSTEM OF ORGANELLES THAT WORK TOGETHER MAINLY TO PRODUCE, DEGRADE, STORE AND EXPORT BIOLOGICAL MOLECULES?
ENDOMEMBRANE SYSTEM
IT IS A PROGRAMMED CELL DEATH AND RIDS THE BODY OF CELLS THAT ARE PROGRAMMED TO HAVE LIMITED LIFE SPAN?
APOPTOSIS
IT PROTECTS UNDERLYING TISSUES IN AREAS SUBJECTED TO ABRASION?
EPITHELIUM: STRATIFIED SQUAMOUS
IT REFERS TO THE BOTH SIDES OF THE BODY OR TWO OF SOMETHING?
BILATERAL
WHAT IS THE ANATOMICAL TERM FOR CHEEKS?
BUCCAL
SUBSTANCE THAT RELEASE HYDROGEN IONS IN DETECTABLE AMOUNTS?
ACID
IT IS A FLAT MOLECULES THAT MADE OF INTERLOCKING HYDROCARBON RINGS?
STEROIDS
IT IS THE BUILDING BLOCKS OF PROTEINS?
AMINO ACID
IT IS THE LUBRICATING FLUID THAT SEPARATES THE SEROSA?
SEROUS FLUID
IT IS USUALLY REFERS TO THE FRONT SIDE OF THE BODY?
ANTERIOR
IT DESCRIBES THE BACK OR DIRECTION TOWARD THE BACK OF THE BODY?
POSTERIOR
IT IS A INTRACELLULAR FLUID PACKED WITH ORGANELLES?
CYTOPLASM
IT IS A SHEET OF CELLS THAT COVERS A BODY SURFACE OR LINES A BODY CAVITY, A BOUNDARY-FORMING TISSUE?
EPITHELIAL TISSUE
