Question 19

3 muscle types

Answer 19

Skeletal : Voluntary : Quadriceps
Smooth : Involuntary : Stomach
Cardiac : Involuntary : Heart

Question 20

respiratory acronym

Answer 20

Not – Nasal Cavity
Many - Mouth
People - Pharynx
Like  - Larynx
To - Trachea
Bake – Bronchi
Broccoli – Bronchioles
All – Alveoli
Day - Diffusion

Question 21

gas exchange

Answer 21

• Occurs in the alveoli
• Venous blood around the alveoli has a high level of CO2 and low level of O2
• Gas moves of area of high pressure/ concentration to low
• The process is called diffusion and requires no energy

Question 22

inspiration

Answer 22

• Intercostals contract to lift and expand chest

- diaphragm contracts to increase thoracic volume.

Question 23

expiration

Answer 23

• Intercostals relax pushing air out of the thoracic cavity.
• Diaphragm relaxes and further reduces the volume.

Question 24

axial skeleton

Answer 24

head, vertebral column, ribs and breastbone or sternum

Question 25

appendicular skeleton

Answer 25

everything else

- eg: Humerus, Radius, Ulna, Carpals

Question 26

somatoypes

Answer 26

• endomorph: lots of body fat, lots of muscle, and gain weight easily
• ectomorph: long and lean, with little body fat, and little muscle
• mesomorph: athletic, solid, and strong

Question 27

function of blood

Answer 27

• Transporting nutrients
• Regulating the body’s fluids
• Regulating the body’s temperature
• Protecting the body against disease.

Question 28

parts of blood

Answer 28

• Red blood cells: Transport nutrients
• Plasma: Regulating the body’s fluids
• White blood cells- Protecting the body against disease.
• Platelets: Prevent bleeding by causing blood clotting

Question 29

types of blood vessels

Answer 29

• Arteries: Carry blood away from the heart
• Veins: Carry blood to the heart
• Capillaries: Where diffusion occurs

Question 30
