(where each body part is)
What is gerontology?
Study of aging
What is a tort?
harm caused by action or inaction
- something you did or did not do caused harm
What is the function of the centrioles?
"skeletal system" of the cell, provides structure, helps pulls the cell apart during reproduction
growth, repair, maintenance
Define physiology.
the function of body parts
(what each body part does)
Name the 4 areas of human development.
physical
intellectual
emotional
social
What does the prefix "dys-" mean?

Describe the function of the golgi apparatus AND the ribosomes
(must know both for points!!)
Golgi: packages and ships secretions (post office)
Ribosomes: make and link proteins
Name the steps of mitosis in order from beginning to end
interphase
prophase
metaphase
anaphase
telophase
cytokinesis
What are the two processes that make up metabolism?

**Must know both for points!!
Dorsal recumbent: lying on the back, knees bent, feet flat on table
Lateral recumbent: lying on the side, knees stacked on one another
What two cell structures work together for energy (ATP) production?
Lysosomes (break down nutrients) and mitochondria (turn nutrients into energy/ATP)
Fill in the blanks:
Meiosis is responsible for the reproduction of ______.
These cells have half the number of chromosomes and are known as _________.
gametes (sperm and eggs)
haploid cells
Name the 4 different tissue types (and their subgroups) in the human body.
Epithelial
Connective (loose, fibrous, adipose, bone, blood)
Muscle (cardiac, skeletal, smooth)
Nervous
What is the difference between trisomy and monosomy chromosomal diseases?
Trisomy: extra chromosome (3 total)
Monosomy: missing chromosome (1 total)
On yourself or a teammate, point to the hypochondriac abdominal region.
Right and left most superior abdominal regions (just beneath the ribs)
The cell would have trouble with which processes if the endoplasmic reticulum were eliminated?
(name AT LEAST 3/4 for points!!)
the cell wouldn't be able to...
- transport substances in and out of the cell
- hold ribosomes
- produce/move lipids to the surface
- store calcium
Describe the anaphase stage of mitosis.
**must name 3/4 details for points
Stretching stage, the chromatids are pulled completely apart, and are considered independent chromosomes, spindle fibers pull the chromosomes to each side of the cell

(anything caught while in the hospital)
endo: caused by a pathogen from within the body
(UTI caused by e. coli from the digestive tract)
