Biology Flashcards
Respiration in absence of oxygen
Glucose to pyruvate to ethanol and co2 and Energy
Happens in yeast
Respiration in lack of oxygen
Glucose to pyruvate to lactic acid plus energy
Happens in our muscle cells
Respiration in presence of oxygen
Glucose to pyruvate to carbon dioxide plus water plus energy
Happens in mitchondria
Pulmonary circuit
RV to PA to lungs to PV to LA
Systemic circuit
LV to Aorta to Organs to Vena cava to RA
Protection of brain
Cranium
Meninges (3 membranes)
Cerebrospinal fluid
Forebrain parts
Cerebrum
Thalamus
Hypothalamus
Hindbrain parts
Pons
Medulla oblongata
Cerebellum
Cerebrum function
Largest part of brain
Voluntary actions
Thalamus function
Coordinating centre for sensory and motor signaling
Hypothalamus function
Regulates temperature hunger thirst
Regulation of behavior emotions
Cerebellum
Responsible for balance of the body and posture
Precision of voluntary actions
Medulla functions
Involuntary functions
Breathing heartbeat digestion BP
Pons function
sleep cycle
Relays information
Midbrain function
Processing of visual and auditory information
Types of movement in plants
Nastic movement(non directional)
Tropic movement (directional)
Plant growth promoter hormones
Auxin
Gibberlin
Cytokinin
Growth inhibitor plant hormones
Absissic acid
Ethylene
Stress hormone in plants
Absissic acid inhibits growth, wilting of leafs
Auxin
elongation of plant
