Also known as voltage. It is always expressed as the potential inside the cell relative to the outside.

A

Membrane Potential

18
Q

It is an inability of the body to restore the functional and stable internal environment.

A

Homeostatic Imbalance

19
Q

This is a regulatory molecule that serves as a middle man to activate either the membrane bound enzyme or the Ion channel.

20
Q

What is the different parts of the cell called?

A

Organelles

21
Q

It provides the structure or shape of the cell.

A

Cytoskeleton

22
Q

This is the site of protein synthesis.

23
Q

It contains hydrolytic enzymes which breaks down the waste products of the cell.

24
What are the four nucleotide bases?
1. Adenine 2. Cytosine 3. Guanine 4. Thymine
25
What happens before cell division that ensures that each daughter cell gets a copy of the genome?
DNA Replication
26
How many subphase does an interphase have?
Interphase has 3 subphases.
27
What is the basic unit of life?
Cells
28
It provides identity molecules for special biological markers.
Glycocalyx
29
This system allows manipulation and control of movement. It also maintains the posture of the body.
Muscular System
30
This system responds to internal and external changes in the body. It is the fast-acting control system of the body
Nervous System
31
This tissue supports organs and cells, transports nutrients and wastes, and repairs damaged tissues.
Connective Tissue
32
This system keeps blood supplied with oxygen and removes carbon dioxide. It includes the airways, lungs, and blood vessels
Respiratory System
33
This breaks down molecules into smaller units.
Catabolism
34
This is a set of metabolic pathways that synthesizes complex molecules.
Anabolism
35
It has the ability to determine which substances can enter or exit the cell.
Selective Permeability
36
It signals the nervous system.
Neurotransmitters
37
It is also known as the dorsal decubitus position. This allows the individual to lie on their back with their face and abdomen facing upwards.
The supine position
38
This body position means palm down. It allows the body to lie flat on their front and face down.
The prone position
39
It is the segment of the DNA molecule that carries the instruction for creating one polypeptide chain.
