Body & Body Systems Continued Flashcards
blank tissue does not grow back
brain
blank output is the volume of blood pumped by each ventricle per minute
cardiac
blank increases during exertion because of an increase in both heart rate and stroke volume
cardiac output
the blood consists of blank which is the matrix
plasma
blank is the second biggest part of blood
red blood cells
blank is the third biggest part of blood
platelets
blank is the smallest part of blood
white blood cells
three functions of circulating blood
transportation, regulation and protection
plasma is blank percent water
92
five solutes in plasma
nutrients, wastes, hormones, ions, proteins
plasma is called blank when proteins are removed
serum
blank are also called red blood cells
erythrocytes
red blood cells of vertebrates contain blank
hemoglobin
a pigment that binds and transports oxygen
hemoglobin
these cells in blood are larger than erythrocytes and have nuclei and can migrate out of capillaries
leukocytes
cell fragments that pinch off from larger cells in the bone marrow
platelets
function in the formation of blood clots
platelets
all of the formed elements of blood develop from blank stem cells
pluripotent
blank is blood cell production
hematopoiesis
red blood cell production is called blank
erythropoiesis
maintaining blank balance involves taking and giving water to/from the environment and exchanging solutes which maintains blank
osmotic, homeostasis
the measure of a solution’s tendency to take in water by osmosis
osmotic pressure
the measure of a solution’s ability to change the volume of a cell by osmosis
tonicity
three types of tonicity
hypertonic, hypotonic, isotonic
equal water exchange with surroundings
isotonic
water always moves from blank to blank
hypo to hyper
organisms that are in osmotic equilibrium with their environment
osmoconformers
most marine invertebrates and Chondrichthyes are blank
osmoconformers
maintain a constant blood osmolarity different than their environment
osmoregulators
most vertebrates are these and all terrestrial animals are these
osmoregulators
produced when amino acids and nucleic acids are broken down
nitrogenous wastes
in nitrogenous wastes, the blank group is removed which forms blank
amino, ammonia
blank are only safe in dilute concentrations, it must be eliminated
nitrogenous wastes
excessive accumulation of ammonia derivatives in joints causes blank in humans
gout
these animals eliminate ammonia by diffusion via gills
bony fishes and baby amphibians
Chondrichthyes, adult amphibians, and mammals convert ammonia into blank which dissolves into blank to get rid of nitrogenous wastes
urea, water
birds, reptiles, and insects convert ammonia into the water insoluble blank that uses blank but does not need blank
uric acid, carbon, water
a variety of mechanisms have evolved. one is a contractive blank that is used by protists.
vacuoles
these pump out water to ensure cell does not burst
vacuoles
nitrogenous wastes are excreted through the blank when there is a vacuole present
membrane
blank use specialized cells and tubules to get rid of nitrogenous wastes
invertebrates
blank are a network of tubes which branch into bulblike blank cells
protonephridia, flame
blank remove solutes and excess water from body in flatworms
flame cells
blank open to the outside of the body through a pore in flatworms
protonephridia
earthworms use blank to get rid of nitrogenous wastes
nephridia
there is how many nephridia on each segment
one
a series of convoluted tubules that remove excess water and solutes from blood and produce urine
nephridia
urine is excreted through a blank in earthworms
pore
how insects get rid of nitrogenous wastes
malpighian tubules
create an osmotic gradient that draws water into the tubules by osmosis in insects
malpighian tubules
blank and blank are secreted into tubules by active transport in insects
h20, K+
water and potassium is blank into the open circulatory system through the hindgut
reabsorbed
cartilaginous fish are blank to seawater
isotonic
shark blood has blank times the amount of urea as a mammal
100
the blank concentration in blood is equal to that of the sea water in sharks
solute
sharks actually blank the urea instead of excreted
reabsorbs
blank are hypotonic to seawater
saltwater bony fish
water leaves saltwater bony fish and does blank across its gills
osmosis
saltwater bony fish drink a lot of blank
seawater
saltwater bony fish have seawater blank that become dissolved in the blank
ions, blood
saltwater bony fish actively blank ions across the gill surface
eliminate
saltwater bony fishes have blank
kidneys
freshwater bony fish are blank to fresh water
hypertonic
the blank of freshwater bony fish produces large amounts of dilute urine
kidney
freshwater bony fish blank ions across blank
reabsorb, nephrons
blank reptiles absorb much of the salt and water in their blood in their kidney
terrestrial
terrestrial reptiles move the dilute blank into the blank
urine, cloaca
blank is reabsorbed in the cloaca of terrestrial reptiles
water
blank and blank are the only vertebrates that can produce urine that is hypertonic
mammals, birds
urine is produced from the blood in blank
nephrons
blood is carried into the blank of nephron
glomerulus
the glomerulus does what
filters out blood
filtrate enters the blank in the nephron
bowman’s capsule
unfiltered blood blanks in the nephron
drains out
filtrate moves through the blank in the nephron
renal tubules
when filtrate exits the collecting blank it is now blank
duct, urine
three step process of nephron function
filtration, reabsorption, secretion
blood plasma is filtered out of the glomerulus into the tubule system
filtration
selective movement of substances out of the filtrate back into the blood
reabsorption
