22
Q

Optics and microscope’s, reviewed and shared observations of various biological samples

A

Robert Hooke & Antony Van Leeuwenhoek

23
Q

Used improved microscope‘s to determine that all living organisms are made of cells
Determined that the cell was the smallest living unit of an organism

A

Matthias Schleiden & Theodor Schwann

24
Q

Difference between the independent and dependent variables on a graph

A

Independent - what the experimenter manipulates (x-axis)

Dependent- The change that is measured (y-axis)

25
How is the data generated from a control group used to reject the hypothesis of a physiology experiment?
If the control group changes | If the change is not what was expected
26
Why is repeating an experiment many times important for determining the importance and meaning of the experimental results?
To ensure the consistency and accuracy of the results | CONFIDENCE
27
Order of structural complexity of the human body
``` Atoms Molecule Organelles Cells Tissue layers Organs Organ systems Organism ```
28
Define metabolism
Sum of all internal chemical change
29
Define homeostasis
The body’s ability to detect change, activate mechanisms that oppose it, and in this way maintain a relatively stable internal environment
30
Define dynamic equilibrium
Balanced change | Multiple changes balance the body
31
What do feedback loops maintain
Dynamic equilibrium
32
Information comes in, decide to do something about it, action is taken, condition returns to normal
Negative feedback loop
33
Which type of feedback loop is self amplifying?
Positive feedback loop | Blood clotting, childbirth
34
Information comes in, affect turned on, affect turned higher and higher
Positive feedback loop
35
What type of feedback loop are most functions?
Negative feedback loop
36
What does it mean to move down the concentration gradient?
Move from high concentration to low concentration | No energy required
37
Which type of gradient change requires the use of cellular energy?
Moving up or against
38
Which type of gradient change occurs without the use of cellular energy?
Moving from high to low or down
39
How are gradients controlled in cells?
Membrane channels
40
The language used as the root of 90% of anatomical terms are which language?
Latin
41
Define eponym
Terms derived from a persons name
42
Termanologia Anatomica has been working to do what with eponyms?
Discourage use of eponyms
43
What is an acronym?
