Transverse or cross section: Tranny
Sagittal or median: L/R

Question 14

What controls breathing?

Answer 14

The medulla oblongata through monitoring of carbon dioxide and blood ph

Question 15

Types of white blood cells

Answer 15

Granulocytes(basophils, eosinophils, neutrophils) and agranulocytes(monocytes and lymphocytes)

Question 16

Pepsinogen

Answer 16

Produced in the stomach, activated by HCL, converts to pepsin to digest proteins

Question 17

Ghrelin

Answer 17

Induces hunger

Question 18

Leptin

Answer 18

Causes the sensation of satiety

Question 19

Where is sperm produced?

Answer 19

In the seminiferous tubules

Question 20

What does the prostate do?

Answer 20

Produces fluids necessary for nourishment of sperm

Question 21

What initiates puberty in males?

Answer 21

The production of gonadotropin-releasing hormone from the hypothalamus. This triggers FSH and LH to be released from the anterior pituitary gland. LH stimulates the release of testosterone. FSH and testosterone trigger the development of sperm celss

Question 22

What initiates puberty in females?

Answer 22

The production of gonadotropin-releasing hormone from the hypothalamus. This triggers FSH and LH to be released from the anterior pituitary gland. FSH triggers estrogen production. The release of estrogen causes eggs to mature and the uterine endometrium to thiken. LH causes the an egg to be released. The corpus luteum then produces large amounts of progesterone to prepare for implantation.

Question 23

What part of the immune system does the skin fall under?

Answer 23

Innate

Question 24

Ceruminous Glands

Answer 24

Ear wax production

Question 25

Sebaceous glands

Answer 25

Oil/Sebum

Question 26

Hormones of the anterior pituitary gland

Answer 26

TSH, HG, ACTH, FSH, LH, MSH, prolactin

Question 27

Innate immune system

Answer 27

Nonspecific response First Line: skin, mucus, secretions - seals the body Second Line: phagocytes, specific proteins, inflammatory respose Third: Adaptive defense(B cells, T cells)

Question 28

How does the innate immune system defend?

Answer 28

Barriers, histamines, interferons, antimicrobial peptides, NK lymphocytes

Question 29

How does the adaptive defense system respond to specific pathogens?

Answer 29

Either a cellular response that destroys the infected cell or the humoral response the destroys pathogens found in body fluids using antibodies secreted by B cells

Question 30

How does the adaptive defense system destroy pathogens from antigen identification to cell/pathogen destruction?

Answer 30

An antigen presenting cell such as a macrophage digests the pathogen and presents the antigen spike to a helper T Cell The helper T cell then activates a B cell or cytotoxic T cell. B cells will produce antibodies and memory cells for future use
