25
Abduction
Moving a body part away from the body
26
Flexion
Bending a joint to decrease tension angle between two bones or body parts
27
Extension
Straightening or extending joint to increase angle between two bones/body parts
28
Rotation
Moving a body part around an axis
29
Gastrocnemius
Calves
30
Sartorius
Hip flexor
31
Dendrites
Carry signals into a nerve
32
Axons
Away out of a nerve cell
33
Myelin sheaths
Insulation
34
Soma
Nerve cell
35
Two parts of the nervous system
Central system and peripheral system
36
What regions make up the spinal cord
Cervical, lumbar, thoracic, spinal nerves
37
Afferent nerves
Carry information from the body to the brain
38
Efferent nerves
Carry info from brain to body
39
Central nervous system
Brain and spinal cord
40
Peripheral system
Somatic and autonomic
41
Somatic
Motor and sensory, skin, sensory organs, and skeletal muscles. Voluntary
42
Autonomic
Sympathetic and parasympathetic involuntary/ vegetative nervous system
43
Sympathetic vs parasympathetic
Sympathetic flight fight freeze while parasympathetic returns body to normal
44
Most important nerves
Nerves going through Spine and brain
45
What does CNS do when it gets a signal
Sends a response back to the body part
46
What is the brain and spinal cord protected by
Skull and vertebrae
47
Liquid substance inside spinal column that protects nerves
Cerebrospinal fluid
48
What does cerebrospinal fluid do
Conduct better signals, gets rid of waste, protects the nerves
49
Arteries
O2 rich blood away from heart
50
Valves
Allow blood flow one way but not the other
51
Veins
O2 poor blood back to heart
52
Capillaries
Gas exchange, o2 co2 and waste
53
Diastolic
Bottom reading of blood pressure, arterial when in between beats
54
Systolic
Arterial pressure when heart is beating/contracted top reading of blood pressure
55
3 things that help move blood
Smooth muscles, movement, valvez
56
3 major structure in the cardiovascular system
Heart, blood vessels, blood
57
Heart pumps blood to do what
Move nutrients and remove metabolic waste
58
Right side of heart
Pushes blood to lungs to oxygenate
59
Left side of heart
Pumps oxygenated blood to rest of body
60
4 chambers of the heart
Right and left atria, right and left ventricles
61
3 tissue layers of heart
Endocardium, myocardium, pericardium
62
SA node
Known as pacemaker
63
How does oxygen in blood move
Oxygen binds to hemoglobin
64
Superior vena cava
Above - Feeds deoxygenated blood into heart
65
Inferior vena cava
Bottom - Pushes deoxygenated blood to lungs out of heart
66
Bicuspid valve
Left side of heart,lets blood through atria to ventricle
67
Strongest ventricle
Left ventricle
68
Aorta
Largest artery, feeds oxygenated blood from top of heart into it to distribute oxygenated blood
69
Tricuspid valve
Lets blood through right atria to right ventricle
70
How long does a red blood cell take to travel throughout the body
1 minute
