w/in membrane and may be Transmembraneous. Can function as; - Anchoring Proteins - Recognition Proteins - Enzymes - Receptor Proteins - Carrier Proteins - Channels
275
Negative Feedback System
the effector negates the stimulus. Explains homeostasis (ex. chills, sweating, etc)
276
Cytology
is the study of cells
277
Catabolism
decomposition reactions to break bonds to smaller units (hydrolysis)
278
Inferior
Caudal
279
Acids
dissociate in solution to release H+
280
Lymphatic System
defends against infection and returns fluid to circulatory system
281
Developmental Anatomy
(Gross) embryological development of body parts
282
Control Center
receives information from the stimulus and integrates proper response
283
Lipids
Major component of cell membranes and used as very effective energy reserve 1. Hydrophobic 2. Fatty Acids 3. Triglycerides 4. Steroids 5. Phospholipids 6. Glycolipids 7. Eicosinoids
284
Microscopic Anatomy
Structures seen only with magnification
285
Nucleoli
transient organelle for synthesis of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and assembly of ribosomal subunits
286
Neutrons
are neutral nuclear particles which have a mass of 1 Dalton
287
Hypertonic Solutions
more solute concentration outside, cell shrinks (crenation)
288
Contraport (symport)
both Na+ and solute come into the cell together
289
Anatomy
the study of body structures and the physical relationships between body parts.
290
Diffusion
owing to kinetic energy, particles move from area of higher to lower concentration
291
96% of human body is composed of:
Carbon, Oxygen, Hydrogen, and Nitrogen
292
Buffers
salts of weak acids or bases which serve to neutralize solutions
293
Potential Energy
energy stored in chemical bonds with anabolism
294
Triglycerides
main storage of fats with ester bonds of three fatty acids and one glycerol molecule - Energy source: Triglycerides produce 2x ATP/gm of TG compared to carbohydrates & protein - Insulation: Triglycerides (TG) help prevent heat loss through the skin - Protection: TGs provide cushioning for delicate organs
295
Proteosomes
contains proteases to disassemble old proteins for recycling
296
Chemical Bonds
re formed from chemical reactions between two or more atoms to form a molecule (even if atoms of the same element) or a compound if the atoms are of different elements.
