Q

oxygen in ponds and lakes

A

during the summer, the deeper waters are high in nutrients and the upper layers high in O2. in the fall and autumn the oxygenated water will turnover to the bottom and the nutrients will form at the top.

Q

Why does the endometrium thicken

A

in réponse to the estrogen levels during the proliferative phase and vascularization occurs.

Q

what happens during the secretory phase

A

the endometrium continues to thicken, arteries enlarge, and glands grow in response to progesterone and estrogens.

Q

what’s the difference between cell-mediated immunity and humoral immunity

A

humoral acts against pathogens such as free viruses and bacteria and based on circulation of antibodies; CMI- works against pathogens that have entered body cells using T-Cells

25
lipid synthesis site
in the smooth er in eukaryotes
26
molecular complexes of cell adhesion proteins that are especially abundant in the surface later of skin an doter kinds of epithelia that are subjected to mechanical insults
desmosomes
27
what will occur from stressing a bone
osteoblastic(bone-forming) activity will increase and calcium phosphate is released into the matrix (to strengthen the bone) the mineral hydroxyapetite is produced
28
syndromes caused by nondisjunction
Edward syndrome (18); down syndrome (21) Klinefelter syndrome ( sex chromosomes)
29
nonsteroidal hormones are derived from
amino acids, h20 soluble (norepinephrine and epinephrine)
30
steroid hormones are derived from
cholesterol
31
lumen
space inside a tube
32
sphincters
rings of muscle in the wall of the esophagus stomach and other specialized regions
33
submucosa
connective tissue with blood and lymph vessels along with nerve plexuses
34
what are amylases secreted by
pancreas and salivary glands ; the salivary and pancreatic amylase break down carbohydrates
35
mono cots and dicots are included in
angiosperms ; flowering plantsand divided into the monocots (narrow elves like grass) or dicots (broad leaves shrubs)
36
undifferentiated cambium develops into
pholem and xylem
37
function of xylem
transports h2o and mineralsup the stem
38
functionof phloem
transports nutrients down the stem
39
non-tracheophytes
plants lacking vascular tissue (simple plants)
40
gymnosperms
non flowering plants red wood, pine juniper tree
41
thylakoids
a series of disks stacked on each other that contain pigments needed for photosynthesis (occurs in the inner membrane of the chloroplast called the stroma)
42
what controls gas exchange
stomata
43
meristem
found in higher plants and represents undifferentiated cell types
44
nucleoside contents
a sugar and base . ex- adenosine
45
nucleotide contents
subar, base and phosphate
46
transfers phosphoryl groups
kinase
47
phosphatase
catalyzes the hydrolytic cleavage of a phosphate exeter bnod
48
lyase
catalyzes the cleavage of C-C, C-O, C-N bonds by elimination
49
hemoglobin
allosteric molecule, contains prosthetic group called heme, exists as a tetramer, binds CO with a much greater affinity than O2
50
allosteric
contains more than one binding site
51
platelets are derived form
megakaryocytes in the red marrow
52
gibberellins
stem elongation and flowering in some plants are due to
53
what stimulates fruit ripening
ethylene
54
inhibitor of plant growth hormones
abscisic acid
55
cytokinins
plant hormones involved with promoting cell division
56
gluconeogenesis
non carbs such as fats and amino acid are made into clucose in the cytosol
57
where does centriole separation occur
prophase
58
anaphase
sister chromatid separation
59
telophase
nucleus reappers
60
when does cytokinesis occur
cytoplase separates, in the late anaphase or early telophase
61
prophase
chromatids shorten and thicken , nucleoli disappears, spindle fibers form, centrioles of animal cells move to opposite ends
