Q

How are fossils and stratigraphic layers connected?

A

Both principals apply to fossils as well. Fossils found in the same layer are from the same time period. Older fossils are in the deeper layers .

Q

What is absolute dating?

A

Method used to find the age of fossils in years.

17
Q

What is a stratigraphic layers

A

It is a layer of sedimentary rocks that formed in the same time period.

18
Q

What is the law or superposition?

A

Older layers at the bottom and younger layers at the top.

19
Q

What is the law of original continuity?

A

All sedimentary rocks contained in a single stratigraphic layer formed in the same time period.

20
Q

How do we mechanically and chemically digests food?

A

Mechanically: We chew it and the stomach squeezes and churns the food
Chemically: acids and enzymes turn food into liquid form.

21
Q

What is role of the stomach?

A

The stomach digest mechanically and chemically

22
Q

What is the role of the small intestine?

A

The small intestine finishes chemical digestion and the absorbs nutrients into the blood.

23
Q

What is the role of the large intestine?

A
  1. Absorbs needed water from the food

2. Package undigested food into waste.

24
Q

Why do we eat?

A

1) energy
2) body sustainability & growth
3) body & tissue repair

25
Q

How many calories are in each substance?

A

1g fat -> 9cals
1g protein-> 4cal
1g carbs -> 4cals

26
Q

What nutrients gets burned first?

A

First: Sugar&carbs
Second: fat
Third: protein (degrades your muscles to create energy)

27
Q

What is the role of Auricle?

A

It is the visible part of the ear and it receives sounds and directs them to the auditory canal

28
Q

What is the role Auditory Canal?

A

A tube lined with fine hairs and glands that secrets earwax and Carrie’s the sound waves to the ear drum

29
Q

What is the role of eardrum?

A

A thin membrane that vibrates when struck by sound waves

30
Q

What is the role of the ossicles?

A

Three small bones that vibrate in response to the vibrations of the ear drum. They sometimes amplify the vibrations

31
Q

What is the role of the Eustachian tube?

A

A tube connecting the ear to the pharynx. Balances the air pressure on both sides of the ear drum

32
Q

What is the role of the cochlea?

A

Receives and transforms the vibrations coming from ossicles into a nerve impulse to be sent to the cerebrum.

33
Q

What is the role of the vestibular nerve?

A

Carries the nerve impulse from the semi-circular canals to the cerebrum to help with the balance.

34
Q

What is the role of the auditory nerve?

A

Carries the nerve impulse from the cochlea to the cerebrum to allow us to hear

35
Q

What are the role of muscles?

A

Stabilizes joints/maintaining posture/producing movement/moving substances in the body/stabilizing body position/producing heat

36
Q

Which type of muscles controls voluntary movements?

A

Skeletal muscles

37
Q

Which type of muscles controls involuntary movements?

A

Smooth and cardiac

38
Q

Where are the muscles located?

A

Smooth muscles -> inside organs
Cardiac muscles -> heart
Skeletal muscles -> muscles
