Mouth

100

Name 4 functions of the digestive system

Ingestion,
Digestion of Food
Absorption of nutrients & water
Excretion of waste

100

What is the name for a chemical that speeds up a chemical reaction in the body. An example of this is amylase.

Enzyme

100

As blood moves from right atrium to the right ventricle at the SAME time blood moves from the left atrium to the left ventricle.

True or False

True

200

What is the purpose of valves? Where are valves found?

Valves prevent the back-flow of blood 

in the heart

200

Describe the function of the respiratory system.

The system responsible for the exchange of gases between the external environment and the blood.

200

Describe the function of white blood cells.

To fight off foreign invaders and pathogens.

200

Describe exhalation. Using the words
1. Diaphragm
2. lung capacity
3. relax 

The diaphragm relaxes (moves up) and inter-coastal muscles relax (come in), lung capacity decreases and air moves out of the lungs.

200

What are the two veins that dump blood into the right atrium?

Superior and inferior Vena Cava

200

Name the MAIN digestive system organs in the correct order (Hint: 5 organs)

Mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine

200

What are the accessory organs to the gastrointestinal system?

Teeth, tongue, salivary glands, liver & pancreas

200

What is in saliva that begins the breakdown of carbohydrates?

Amylase

200

What is the Lub Dub sound you hear when listening to a heart?

Lub :
Tricuspid and Mitral Valve snap shut
1st heart sound / s1,
Pulmonary and Aortic Valve open

Dub :
Pulmonary and Aortic Valve snap shut
2nd heart sound / S2
Tricuspid and Mitral Valveopen

300

Describe the function of platelets and red blood cells.

Platelets - responsible for forming blood clots to stop your body from bleeding out. 

Red Blood Cells - carry oxygen around the body.

300

Describe inhalation. Use the words 

1. contracts
2. lung capacity
3. diaphragm 

The diaphragm contracts (moves down) and inter-coastal muscles relax (go out), lung capacity increases and air moves into the lungs.

300

What is the function of a thrombocyte?

 help form blood clots to slow or stop bleeding and to help wounds heal.

300

What are alveoli and what is their function?

Alveoli are tiny sacs at the end of the bronchioles where gas exchange occurs. It allows oxygen and carbon dioxide to move between the lungs and the bloodstream.

300

What are the names of the three arteries that break off of the aortic arch?

Braceocephalic , left common carotid , left subclavian

300

What is the function of the small intestines?

Absorbs all the nutrients and sends it through to the rest of the body.

300

Apart from the mouth, where else does mechanical digestion occur?

Stomach

300

What enzyme is in the stomach that digests protein?

Pepsin

300

What type of muscle makes up the digestive system?

smooth muscle

400

Describe the function of the heart.

It is responsible for pumping blood around the body, supplying oxygen and nutrients and removing carbon dioxide and waste. 

400

What are the names of # 1, 5 and 8

#1 nasal cavity (nose)

# 5 bronchi     #8 alveoli


400

List 2 differences between veins and capillaries.

1. Veins carry deoxygenated blood

2. Capillaries facilitate gas exchange

3. Veins have valves - capillaries do not 

4. Capillaries are one cell thick

400

What is the name of #4?

trachea (windpipe)

400

How do the heart and lungs work together to maintain homeostasis?

move oxygen and nutrients throughout body, removes wastes such as carbon dioxide

Heart- pumps blood, carries O2 and Co2

Respiratory System - exchanges needed gases for waste in lungs, 

400

What is the main function of the large intestines?

Absorbs water and compacts the waste

400

What is the squeezing wave like movement of the food in the GI tract called?

Peristalsis

400

What are the two functions of food?

Provide energy and building materials

400

What type of lining does the digestive system have that protects it from gastric juices?

Pancreas

500

List the function of the arteries. 

Carry oxygenated blood away from the heart.

500

What are the names of # 2, 3, and 9?

#2 pharynx,  #3 larynx, # 9 diaphragm

500

List 3 functions of the Circulatory System.

1. Deliver oxygen and nutrients around the body.
2. Removes wastes from cells.
3. Fight disease and pathogens.
4. Regulate body temperature.
5. Transport hormones around the body.

500

E= vein (superior vena cava)

F = aorta     G= pulmonary artery pulmonary

500

What is the difference between mechanical and chemical digestion?

Mechanical : Breaking down of materials by breaking, tearing, crushing and mashing

Chemical: The breaking down of food into smaller pieces by chemicals like saliva or enzymes

500

What are the functions of the following organs; liver , pancreas, gallbladder?

liver: filters the blood and breaks down poisonous substances ; produces bile that helps digest fats and carry away waste ; Storage of Vitamins and minerals ; Protein Synthesis; Metabolism and Detoxification

gallbladder : bile storage from the liver. Released into the first section of the small intestine called the duodenum; bile helps body break down and absorb fats from food.
