Medical ___is the study of the genome and how it can be used in the cause, treatment, and prevention of disease.
Genomics
A _____is the complete set of genes in a chromosome of the cell of a specific organism.
____ Is the study of the genome and its products and interactions
Genome
Is any therapeutic procedure in which genes are intentionally introduced into human body cells to achieve Jean repair, Jean suppressions, or gene addition.
Gene therapy
Derived from the Greek chromos, meaning color, and Soma, meaning body.
Chromosome
Composed of skin, nails, and glands. Forms a protective covering for the body, regulates body temperature, and helps manufacture vitamin D
Integumentary system
Composed of nose, pharynx (throat), larynx (voicebox), trachea (windpipe), bronchial tubes, and lungs. Performs respiration which provides the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide within the body
Respiratory system
Composed of kidneys, ureter’s, bladder, and urethra. Removes waste material (urine) from the body, regulates fluid volume, and maintains electrolyte concert
Urinary system
Female reproductive system is composed of ovaries, uterine tubes, uterus, vagina, in memory glands. Male reproductive system is composed of testes, urethra, penis, prostate gland, and associated tubes. Responsible for heredity and reproduction.
Reproductive system
Composed of the heart and blood vessels. Pumps and transports blood throughout the body
Cardiovascular system
Composed of a network of vessels, ducks, notes, and organs. Provides defense against infection
Lymphatic system
Composed of the gastrointestinal tract which includes the esophagus, stomach, large and small intestine plus accessory organs, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas. Prepares food for used by the body cells and eliminate waste
Digestive system
Composed of muscle, bones, and joints. Provides movement and framework for the body, protects vital organs such as the brain, stores calcium, and produces red blood cell
Musculoskeletal system
Composed of the brain, spinal cord, and nerves regulates body activities by sending and receiving messages
Nervous system
Composed of glands that secrete hormones. Hormones regulate many body activities
Endocrine system
___Stem cells are immature cells found in the bone marrow and peripheral blood. They have the potential to develop into mature cells of any type of body tissue or form mature blood cells

Autologous
Synergetic.
Allogenic
_____Stem cells are derived from the earliest stage of development of the embryo and have the potential to develop into mature body cells
Embryonic
Stem cell transplantation is used to treat leukemia (cancer involving the ____blood cells), ____ ___( disease in which there is an adequate production of blood cells), ____ (cancer that forms Tumors in the bone marrow), _____(cancer involving lymphoid cells), and immune deficiency disorders

Cranial cavity
Space inside the spinal column containing the spinal cord
Spinal cavity
Space containing the heart, aorta, lungs, esophagus, trachea, and bronchi
Thoracic, or chest, cavity
Space containing the stomach, intestines, kidneys, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, and ureters
Abdominal cavity
Space containing the urinary bladder, certain reproductive organs, parts of the small and large intestine, and the rectum
Pelvic cavity
