Q

Aorta

A

heart –> aorta –> ox to body

25
Vena Cava
superior up, inferior down, to right atrium (heart)
26
Coronary artery disease
blockage of atery to heart (from lungs), blocked by plaque
27
Hypertension
prolonged high-blood-pressure, artery narrowed by plaque
28
Heart attack
plaque blocks blood to heart muscles
29
Stroke
plaque blocks artery to brain
30
Oral Cavity (mouth)
chews food
31
Salivary Glands
produces saliva (with amylase)
32
Stomach
gastric juice (HCl) digests
33
Small Instestines
contains villi, nutrient absorbtion to blood
34
Large Intestine
absorbs water
35
Rectum
opening to dispose of waste
36
Liver
production of bile
37
Gallbladder
stores bile
38
Pancreas
produces disgestion aiding enzymes
39
Esophagus
transports food to stomach
40
Nasal Cavity
contains tiny hairs, cleans air of particulate
41
Pharynx
where nasal cavity, esophagus, trachea meet
42
Larynx
voice box, cartilage, vocal cords
43
Trachea
cartilage, maintains respiratory passage structure, cillia --> mucus for cleaning
44
Bronchi/Bronchiole
Bronchi --> Bronchiole, cartilage, ends at alveoli
45
Alveoli
Raspberry, one cell thick, efficient diffusion
46
Heartburn
esophagus, stomach acid enters esophagus, antacids
47
Diarrhea
large intestine, rapid feces movement, no water absorbed, antibiotics
48
Consipation
rectum, slow feces movement, consume fibre
49
Bronchitis
bronchi cillia immobilized, system debris clogged
50
Asthma
allergies, mucus obstructs bronchiole airflow
51
Pneumonia
Lungs, fluid in lungs, blocks alveoli
52
Epiglottis
flap for trachea, esophagus
53
Emphysema
alveoli walls, brittle, fuse
54
Dermal tissue
Exterior tissue, protection: root hairs, leaves
55
Vascular Tissue
circulates resources: xylem phloem
56
Ground Tissue
filler tissue, stores resouces: palisade, spongy
57
Xylem
dead cell walls: minerals water, upward
58
Phloem
elongated cells: sugars nutrients, bi-directional
