Receives messages from other neurons?
conscious or subconscious awareness of an internal or external stimuli is called what?
what is sensation
a collection of glands and groups of cells thats secrete hormones that regulate growth,development, and homeostsis?
what is the endocrine system
what is more commonly called red blood cells?
what is Erythrocytes
the contraction of the chambers of the heart (especially the ventricles) to drive blood into the aorta and pulmonary artery CONTRACTION is called?
what is systole
what are neurons that send info from sensory organs such as skin or eyes to the central nervous system?
what are sensory affector.
Olfactory and gustatory send impulses to what specific part of the body?
what is the cerebral cortex, then the limbic system
chemical "messengers" of the endocrine system that are released into the blood?
what are hormones
what is a series of reactions that produce ATP in the cytosol. Waste products are pyruvic acid?
what is Glycolysis
the widening of the chambers of the heart between two contractions when the chambers fill with blood
RELAXATION is called?
what is dystole
what controls hearing language and speech?
what is the temporal lobe
Where is the olfactory epithelium located?
what is superior part of the nasal cavity
class of hormones that cannot pass through the cell membrane; less likely to be stored in the body?
what are protein hormones
Series of reactions that occur in the mitochondria creating ATP. Waste products are water and carbon dioxide?
what is oxidative phosphorylation
what is the volume of blood pumped out by a ventricle with each heartbeat?
what is stroke volume
Nerve ending that relays impulse to hext destination?
what is adon terminal
What is the function of basal cells within the olfactory epithelium?
what is they replace the olfactory receptors (stem cells)
class of hormones that can pass through the cell membrane; can be stored in the body?
what are steroid hormones
what is the number of ATP molecules produced during glycolysis
what is 2 molecules
what is an abnormal sound of the heart; sometimes a sign of abnormal function of the heart valves?
what is a murmur
what is the space between neurons?
what is the synaptic gap
Taste buds are composed of what type of cells?
what are gustatory receptors, which are then surrounded by supporting cells
what are local hormones that do not enter the bloodstream?
what is prostaglandins
what is protein that maintains osmotic/oncotic pressure in the blood?
what is Serum albumin
what are the 3 layer of the heart wall?
Epicardium - outside layer
Myocardium- middle layer
Endocardium- inner layer
