Afferent/Efferent
Control mechanism that enhances stimulus
Positive feedback
1. An increased ________ allows chemical digestion to occur more efficiently and quicker as different digestive enzymes can reach more areas of the ingested food. 2. ________ is an important property of the lining of the small intestine because it allows for the absorption of nutrients more quickly and more efficiently
Surface Area
1. Recognition of traits shared by broad ranges of pathogens, using a small set of receptors 2. Rapid response
Innate Immunity
_____ insulate the axon, enabling fast conduction in vertebrate axons. These ____ are produced by two types of glia: oligodendrocytes in the CNS and Schwann cells in the PNS
Myelin Sheath
What is the hormone that causes elongation and bending?
Auxin
This chemical element activates T3/T4. Lack of this element can cause hypothyroidism.
Iodine
This pancreatic enzyme digests starches into maltose.
Amylase
Fragments of foreign proteins produced in infected host cells are displayed on the cell surface, where they can be recognized by activated cytotoxic T cells. As with helper T cells, cytotoxic T cells have an accessory protein that binds to the _______.
Makes sure that action potentials are propagated unidirectionally
Refractory Period
These molecules are unable to be filtered in the glomerulus.
Blood Cells and Blood Proteins
During high light situations (bright) what happens to the cGAMP levels in the cell?
Low
What are the two components of gastric juice?
HCl and Pepsin
This is the general name of T cells and B cells.
Which phase develops the greatest pressure on the blood in the mammalian aorta?
Ventricular systole
This part of the nephron actively pumps salt out as osmolarity decreases.
Ascending Loop of Henle
This neurotransmitter is released at the neuromuscular junction.
Acetylcholine.
Which enzyme changes fat into fatty acids & glycerol?
This is the germ layer that will turn into the circulatory system and skeletal muscles.
Mesoderm
The oxygen saturation curve moves in this direction during exercising.
This is the response after a plant signaling pathway.
De-etiolation
This is the hormone produced by the anterior pituitary, which its target organ is the kidney.
ADH
These cells are located in the gastric pits of the stomach and secrete HCl for the breakdown of proteins
This is an important substance in the cytoplasm involved in the internal cue that leads to different cell fates.
Transcription factors
What re-establishes the RMP in the neuron after an AP is fired?
