Mastication begins in this part of the digestive tract.
What is the mouth?
This term involves individuals who don't get the essential nutrients to function normally, regardless of how much they eat.
What is malnourished?
These blood vessels leave the heart.
The basic idea behind respiration is inhaling oxygen and getting rid of this gaseous waste product.
What is carbon dioxide?
The two parts of the central nervous system are the brain, and this structure.
What is the spinal cord?
This type of blood vessel has extremely thin walls that are good for absorbing and secreting molecules.
What are capillaries?
Bile, which is used in the digestion of lipids, are stored in this accessory organ of the digestive system.
What is the gallbladder?
This chamber of the heart pumps oxygen rich blood to the aorta for distribution throughout the body.
What is the left ventricle?
Of the two, this process is generally considered to be the passive one.
This ion is usually more concentrated inside the cell than it is out.
What is potassium (K+)?
You would want this division of the autonomic nervous system to activate if you had a triple dipper from Chili's.
What is the parasympathetic nervous system?
This term describes the rhythmic, muscular contractions that allow structures like the esophagus to move food throughout the digestive system.
What is peristalsis?
Some fishes have only 2 chambers in the heart, which means it has this type of circuit.
What is single circuit circulation?
This type of breathing involves creating a low pressure in the lungs to draw air into it, rather than forcing it.
What is negative pressure breathing?
The lobe of the brain that contains Wernicke's area, which is important for understanding.
What is the temporal lobe?
The opening of the voltage-gated channels of this ion results in the depolarization phase of the action potential.
What is sodium (Na+)?
The digestion of carbohydrates first begins in this part of the digestive tract.
What is the mouth?
This wave of the EKG occurs when the ventricles repolarize after contracting.
What is the T wave?
The amount of air you normally breathe, plus the amount of air you can forcibly inhale and exhale, is known as this metric.
What is vital capacity?
This term describes the minimum potential needed to cause an action potential, typically around -55 mV.
What is threshold?
Using the following EKG, determine the correct diagnosis.
What is normal sinus rhythm?
These are the cells of the stomach that are capable of secreting hydrochloric acid for food breakdown.
What are the parietal cells?
Using the following EKG, determine the correct diagnosis.
What is atrial flutter?
This type of lung condition results in the reduction of residual volume.
What is restrictive lung disease?
The inactivation the voltage-gated channels of this ion results in the refractory period seen in neurons after an action potential.
What is sodium (Na+)?
