Q

resting potential:

A

doesn’t have to be passing messages all the time
could be making ATP and preparing to divide
doesn’t have to always be electrically active
ready for action potential
-70 milivolts

25
Eustachia tube
from inner ear to back of throat, periodically opens and closes and allows the ear to repressurize so middle parts at atmospheric pressure
26
compound eyes
insects, spiders
27
Camera eyes
Humans, dogs,cats, zoo animals
28
compound eyes
have lens and photoreceptors but many little eye units, good for a wide view but its pixelated which makes it easy to see when something moves
29
camera eyes
light comes in from one location
30
sclera
white of eye, blocks light, protective and has tough connective tissue
31
pupil
hole in eye (black tiny dot)
32
cornea
clear layer to protect pupil and let light through
33
iris
colored part of the eye to adjust amount of light entering
34
lens
focus light to photoreceptors in back of the eye
35
retina
back of the eye that hold photreceptors
36
fovea
where photoreceptors are most densely located in retina
37
rods
low wavelength light (dim light), grayscale aspects of vision
38
cones
color vision, higher wavelength, mostly active during the day
39
optic nerve
a bundle of nerve fibers that carries visual information from the retina at the back of the eye to the brain
40
taste is ___
Gustation
41
Smell is___
Olfaction
42
Taste and smell both use ____
Chemoreceptors
43
components of taste
sweet, salty, sour, bitter, savory
44
pain
chemicals leak and tell nerves something need to be fixed
45
Hydrostatic
jellyfish, sea animals, allow some moment like a water balloon on the inside, meant to help fight current
46
hinge joints
flex and extension (elbow and knee)
47
ball and sack joints
can twist, 360 range of motion (hips and shoulders)
48
4 muscle contractions and relaxation
primary proteins (actin and myosin), accessories proteins, calcium, ATP
49
synapse acetylcholine
chemical muscles will respond to tellsit to release calcium from sarcoplasmic reticulum
50
accessory proteins move from____ when ____ is present, myosin ear now binds to actin
actin , calcium
51
endocrine system
types of hormones you can make and how cells respond
52
glands
produce hormones and place them in circulation
53
types of hormones
amino acid based, protein based , lipid base
54
alertness/metabolic activity
thyroid glands (thyroxine )
55
goiter
very large enlargemnt of thyroid gland
56
calcium
thyroid gland- calcitonin
57
parathyroid hormones
take calcium from bones
58
osteoporosis
not enough calcium from diet, it takes from bones and weakens them
59
pancreas : insulin
insulin takes glucose and puts some in storage, glucose uses some to make ATP
60
pancreas glucagon
breaks glycogen into glucoses
61
immunity
general responses, two things trying to invade, always the same, adaptive/acquires responses, after 2-3 times after having something new immune system will be able to protect from it
62
what cells does immunity have
B cells and T cells
63
what do B cells do
make antibodies
64
what do T cells do
Protect from immune diseases
