Primary Functions
The primary functions of the skeletal system are frameworks and support, levers and fulcrums, mineral storage, and this function.
Blood cell production (hematopoiesis)
The two main components of the nervous system.
Brain and spinal cord
Organic compounds contain this element.
Carbon
Homeostasis
State of internal stability or balance in the body
Flexion (any joint)
One of this system's primary functions are returning fluid and proteins to the blood.
Lymphatic system
Primary components of the urinary system.
Kidneys, ureters, bladder, urethra
The three primary structural features of all cells.
plasma membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus
Passive Transport
Cellular transport mechanism that does not require the use of energy (ATP)
Abduction (hip joint)
Take your leg away from your body
This byproduct of muscle movement helps the skeletal muscle system maintain body temperature.
Heat
This organ is a primary component of both the digestive and the endocrine system.
Pancreas
This tissue is avascular
Epithelial
Metabolism
The sum of all biochemical reactions that occur within a cell or organism that are necessary to maintain life
Dorsiflexion
Hope you knew to move your foot!
The six functions of the digestive system.
Ingestion, Secretion, Digestion, Motility, Absorption, Elimination
Diarthrotic joint
The group of cells that make up nonconductile tissue
Glial cells/neuroglia
Specific Immune Response
Defensive body reaction involving B and T cell activation by a specific pathogen
Horizontal adduction (shoulder joint)
Bring your arm towards the body on the transverse plane
The integumentary system synthesizes vitamin D, which in this active form can absorb calcium and phosphorus from the digestive tract.
Calcitriol
This organ can hold approximately one pint of blood for emergency use.
Spleen
Hyaline, fibrocartilage, and elastic are all examples of this type of connective tissue
Cartilage
Remodeling stage
Final phase of the healing process involving the final thickening and alignment of scar tissue; also known as maturation stage
Protraction
Hey, stand up straight!
