The body has millions of trillions of cells that work together. The cells need to transports and receive materials between their internal and X in environments.

24
Q

Extracellular fluid

A

The external compartment of a outer cell

25
Homeostasis
The bodies ability to keep a steady state either from internal or external factors
26
Equilibrium
When the molecular composition, Cellular compartments, have two, compartments, identical
27
Disequilibrium
When each compartments that is adjacent to another, is very difference in concentration of molecules or ion
28
Pathophysiology
The study of diseases in body functions
29
Mechanistic
The how process. Science story telling
30
Teleological
The why, who needs it, why is it needed description of parts
31
Neutron
Subatomic particles with no charge
32
Proton
Subatomic particle with a positive charge
33
Altering the # of ___ in a atom will either create a positive or negative charge atom
Electrons
34
Atomic mass
On the periodic table, The ___ indicates the # of protons plus the # of neutrons(bottom # on periodic table)
35
On the periodic table the ,___ describes the # of protons of each element( top number on periodic table)
Atomic #
36
When an atom or molecule loses or gained a electron. Atom with a electric charge
Ion
37
When a atom gained a electron, becomes negatively charged.
Anion
38
Cation
When a atom loses one or more electron. Positively charged
39
Ionic bond
An attraction (+\-) between atoms that where one loses and electron and the other gains. These bonds easily break in a watery environment
40
Free radical

Ph
The concentrated measurement of hydrogen ions in a solution
47
Acidic
A number lower than 7 indicates a____ solution, when considering Ph
48
Buffer
Description of molecules like bicarbonate or phosphate that helps maintain pH by removing excess H+ ions from a solution or donating H+ ions to solution when their concentration is too low
49
Concentration
Amount of solute per unit of volume of solution is a measurement of a solutions ___
50
Control group
A group to be the basis for comparison. This group is not manipulated and does not experience any type of independent variable
