Group 1 Flashcards
Which level is exemplified by how the functional properties of complex protein molecules that make up protein filaments produce the contractions of the musculature of the heart
Chemical cellular organ tissue
Chemical
The study of the timing and sequencing of events related to the heartbeat such as the opening and closing of valves is
Physiology
The study of function and how living organisms perform their vital function
Physiology
Study of structures that cannot be seen without magnification
Microscopic anatomy
The examination of relatively large structures and features usually visible with the unaided eye
Gross or macroscopic anatomy
The chemical breakdown of complex materials for absorption and use by the organism
Digestion
The elimination of chemical waste products generated by the organism
Excretion
The movement of fluid within the organism
Circulation
Indicates that the organism recognizes changes in it’s infernal or external environment
Responsiveness
Changes the organism’a behavior capabilities or structure
Adaptability
Inherited patterns for growth (an increase in size) and development(changes in structure and function) produce organisms characteristic of their species
Growth and development
Refers to oxygen absorption and utilization and carbon dioxide generation and release
Respiration
An initial stimulus produces a response that exaggerates or enhances the change in original conditions rather than opposing it
Positive feedback
An effector activated by the control center opposes or negates the original stimulus. ____ tends minimize change, keeping variation in key body systems within limits compatible with our long term survival
Negative feedback
Homeostatic mechanisms using negative feedback normally ignore minor variations and they maintain a normal range rather than a fixed value
Isolate and protect neurons while forming a supporting framework
Neuroglia
Transmit information in the form of electrical impulses
Neurons
Mass of connective tissue that separates the two pleural cavities and stabilize the positions of embedded organs and blood vessels
Mediastinum
Tough flexible network that provides support and resists distortion
Reticular tissue
Where is reticular tissue found
Liver kidney spleen lymph nodes and bone marrow
Fibers form an interwoven mesh work in no consistent pattern
Dense irregular connective tissue
Where is dense regular connective tissue found
Cords ( tendons) or sheets connecting skeletal muscle to bone and in cords ( ligaments ) that interconnect bones or stabilize the positions of internal organs
Has a spring resilient nature that allows this type of tissue to tolerate cycles of extension and recoil
Elastic tissue
Example of simple tubular
Intestinal glands
Example of simple coiled tubular
Merocrine sweat glands
Example of simple branched tubular
Gastric glands
Mucous glands of esophagus tongue duodenum
Example of simple alveolar (acinar)
A stage in the embryonic development of simple branched glands , not found in adults
Simple branched alveolar
Sebaceous oil glands
Type of intercellular attachment that forms a barrier that isolates the basolateral surfaces and deeper tissue from the contents of the lumen
Occluding junction
