Anatomy and Physiology
What is Anatomy vs Physiology
Anatomy is the study of the structure
Physiology is the study of how those structures
function
What are the types of muscle contraction
Concentric
Eccentric
Isometric
What are Neruro transmitters
Chemical messengers in your brain
What are the structures of a long bone
Lamellae; canaliculi; trabeculae
What is a hypotonic Solution vs a Hypertonic Solution
Hypotonic: concentration gradient is higher INSIDE the cell causing it to swell
Hypertonic: Concentration gradient is higher outside the cell causing cell to shrink
