not fertilized eggs
28
The process of providing or obtaining food necessary for the health, survival, and growth of an organism.
Nutrition
29
2 modes of nutrition
Autotrophs Heterotrophs
30
Manufacture their own nutrients by synthesizing inorganic materials
Autotrophs
31
Organisms that obtain energy from sunlight and chemicals to produce their own food
Autotrophs
32
2 types of autotrophs
Photoautotrophic Chemoautotrophic
33
Organisms directly use the energy from the sun and other inorganic substances such as carbon dioxide and water to form organic food
Photoautotrophic
34
Organisms use chemicals to create simpler organic substances important for their survival
Chemoautotrophic
35
Organisms that cannot make their own food and obtain their energy from other organisms
Heterotrophs
36
Types of Heterotrophs
Saprophytic Parasitic Holozoic
37
Organisms obtain their nutrients from dead organic matter
Saprophytic
38
The organism takes food from another organism (host and parasites)
Parasitic
39
Organisms feed by ingesting solid or liquid food (herbivore, omnivore, and carnivore)
Holozoic
40
Roots that absorb nutrients
Hyphae
41
A complex network of cells and proteins that protect the organism from diseases and other potentially damaging foreign bodies
Immune System
42
It is caused by viruses, bacteria, fungi, protists, and other pathogens
Infectious Disease
43
Any substance that causes your immune system to produce antibodies against it
Antigen
44
Usually found on the surface of pathogens, and are unique to that particular pathogen
Antigen
45
A protein component of the immune system that circulates in the blood, recognizes foreign substances like bacteria and viruses and neutralizes them
Antibodies
46
Regions that have a high ratio of different amino acids in a given position, relative to the most common amino acid in that position
Hypervariable
47
2 classes of immune system
Innate Immune System Adaptive Immune System
48
Innate Immune System is also known as
Nonspecific Defense
49
These defenses are not directed against any pathogen but instead provide a guard against all infection
Innate Immune System
50
It is an important part of the innate immune system and exhibits strong antimicrobial activities against pathogens
Lysozyme
51
The body's most important nonspecific defense
Skin
52
A type of white blood cells that circulates throughout the body, looking for potential threats, like bacteria and viruses, to engulf and destroy
Phagocytes
53
Types of Phagocytes
Macrophages, Mast Cells, Monocytes, Neutrophils
54
Adaptive Immune System is also known as
Acquired Immunity
55
Activated by exposure to pathogens, it uses an immunological memory to learn about the threat and enhance the immune response accordingly
Adaptive Immune System
56
A small white blood cell (leukocyte) that plays a large role in defending the body against disease
Lymphocytes
57
they destroy compromised cells in the body and help alert other leukocytes
T-cells
58
Types of T-cells
Helper T-cells and Killer aka Cytotoxic T-cells
59
they produce antibodies and help alert the T lymphocytes
B-cells
60
Types of B-cells
Plasma B-cells and Memory B-cells
61
Process of maintaining a stable internal (our body) environment suitable for sustaining life
Homeostasis
62
5 components of homeostasis
Stimulus Receptor Control Center Effector Response
63
A structure that produces the change
Stimulus
64
A structure that detects change
Receptor
65
A structure that determines the appropriate response to the stimulus
Control Center
66
Can be organs, glands, or tissues that are instructed to adjust the amount of output that produces the desired effect
Effector
67
The outcome of the adjustment should remove the initial stimulus
Response
68
A physiological loop that brings the body either toward or away from the normal steady-state
Feedback Mechanism
69
Feedback Mechanism are also known as
Feedback Loop
70
2 types of feedback loops
Negative Feedback Mechanism Positive Feedback Mechanism
71
It allows the internal condition of the body to go back to its normal or ideal state by inhibiting or removing stimulus
Negative Feedback Mechanism
72
3 types of Negative Feedback Mechanism
Osmoregulation Blood Sugar Regulation Thermoregulation
73
If body temperature changes, mechanisms are induced to normal levels
Thermoregulation
74
Insulin lowers blood glucose when levels are high Glucagon raises blood glucose when levels are low
Blood Sugar Regulation
75
ADH is secreted to retain water when dehydrated and its release is inhibited when the body is hydrated
Osmoregulation
76
What is ADH
Antidiuretic Hormone
77
Sugar to glucagon
Glycogenesis
78
Glucagon to sugar
Glycogenolysis
79
wider blood vessel
Vasodilation
80
narrow blood vessel
Vasoconstriction
81
2 types of hormones from pancreas
Glucagon and Insulin
82
It is an increase in the concentration of products or substances that also results in an increase in the rate of the process.
Positive Feedback Mechanism
83
3 types of Positive Feedback Mechanism
Childbirth Lactation Blood Clotting
84
stretching of uterine walls causes contractions that further stretch the walls
Childbirth
85
The child feeding stimulates milk production, which causes further feeding (which continues until the baby stops feeding)
Lactation
86
Platelets release clotting factors, which cause more platelets to aggregate at the site of injury
Blood Clotting
