The body contains spaces called
Cavities
82
The two major body cavities are the
Dorsal in ventral cavity
83
Ventral cavity
Located at the front of the body consist of two compartments called the Thoracic and the abdominal pelvic which are separated by the diaphragm
84
What are the three components of homeostasis
Receptor which recieves info
Control center which recieves and process info
Effector which responds to signals from the control center
85
The normal ph of blood is...
7.35 and its alkaline
86
What makes on acid stronger than the other
The more the hydrogen ions produced the stronger the acid
87
What are the four main organic compounds in the body
Carbohydrates lipids proteins and nucleic acids
88
What are the building blocks of proteins
Amino acids
89
What are the functions of each cell organelle
1. Plasma membrane surrounds the cell and regulates the passage of substances.
2. Nucleus is the cells control center and contains all the cells genetic info.
3. Nuclear envelope is a double layered membrane that surrounds the nucleus
4. Nuclear pore regulate the passage of molecules into the nucleus
5. Ribosomes is the cells protein producing structure
6. Cytoplasm is the gel like substance that fills the space between the plasma membrane and nucleus
7. Golgi apparatus recieves proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum and prepares the packages for them to export
8. Mitochondria functions the cell power house and produces atp which cells use for energy
9. Lysosomes destroy bacteria clean out the cell and pinch of pieces of the Golgi apparatus
10. Cyt framework of the cell determines the cell shape and strengthen the cell
11. Microbiology are found in the intestines
12. cila are found in the respiratory tract and Fallopian tube they propel bad stuff
13. Flagella are found in sperm only make whip like motion for swimming
90
Explain what happens in osmosis
Involves diffusion of water down the concentration gradient through the membrane water will go from higher to Lower concentration
91
What is the sodium potassium pump
Cells can move ions and other particles to specific areas most important active transport. Transfer sodium from inside to outside the cell and transfer potassium from the extracellular fluid to the cells interior
92
Four main types of tissue
Epithelial connective muscular and nervous
93
What type of epithelial tissue is in the kidney
Simple cuboidal which is a single layer
94
What type of epithelial tissue is in the respiratory system
Pseudostratified columnar
95
Where is transitional epithelium found and what is it special quality
Urinary tract and its special qualities are consisting of multiple cell layers and when its stretched the cell layers decrease and cell shape changes from cuboidal squamous
96
What are three different types of muscle tissue and their differences?
Skeletal which consist of long thin cells it is voluntary and responsible for breathing,speech, control of urination
Cardiac is found in the heart and it is involuntary
Smooth long spinal shaped cells it lines the walls of many organs control the diameter of blood vessels and control blood pressure and flow
97
What are four main types of connective tissue
Adipose stores lipids and consist of large cells
Cartilage hard yet flexible tissue like the ear
Bone cells hard tissue of calcium phosphate and calcium concentration
Blood
98
What types of fibers are found in connective tissue
Collagen reticular and elastic
99
What are the three types of cartilage and where are they located
Hyaline located where the ribs meet the sternum
Elastic located by the ear and nose
Fibrocartilage is between the vertebrae and in knee joint
100
What is an example of loose and dense connective tissue
Loose connective tissue ex: areolar adipose reticular
| Dense connective tissue ex: tendons and ligaments
101
Mucous membrane
Lines the body surfaces that open directly to the body's exterior such as the respiratory digestive urinary and reproductive tracts! Secret mucous a watery secretion that coats and protects the cells of the membrane
102
Serous membrane
Compose of simple squamous epithelium resting on a thin layer of areola connective tissue and it lines some of the closed body cavities and covers many of those organs
103
What is the difference between endocrine and exocrine gland
Endocrine gland secreted hormones and products in the blood and consist of testes organs and more
Exocrine glands secrete their products in their ducts such as sweat
104
What is regeneration
Occurs when damaged tissue cells are replaced to same type of cells
105
What is fibrosis
Occurs when damaged tissue is replaced with scar tissue which is composed mainly of collagen
106

107
Membrane
Boundary lining that surround a cell
108
