Bones
The part of a bone is composed of compact bone surrounding a medullary cavity
What is the diaphysis?
This structure functions to stimulate a muscle cell to contract.
What is the neuromuscular junction?
This must be released for a neuron to stimulate another neuron at a synapse.
What is a neurotransmitter?
This love of the cerebrum functions to receive touch, temperature, and pain.
What is the parietal lobe?
The type of bone cell that breaks down bone tissue thereby increasing Ca levels
What is osteoclast?
The type of bone tissue that forms the outer layer of bone
What is compact bone
This is the neurotransmitter released from the axon terminal at the neuromuscular junction.
What is acetylcholine?
This fluid in and surrounding the CNS functions to cushion the brain and spinal cord.
What is cerebrospinal fluid?
This type of photoreceptor functions to detect black and white and movement.
What is a rod?
The two cell types involved in bone remodeling.
What are osteoblasts and osteoclasts?
The two hormones responsible for the growth spurt at puberty
What are estrogen and testosterone?
This molecule also known as the thick filament functions to bind actin and shorten the sarcomere
What is myosin?
This is the ion that enters the cell and causes the charge on the inside of the cell membrane to become more positive during depolarization
What is Na+?
This is the location of cell bodies of sensory neurons.
Dorsal root ganglion (posterior)
This type of neuron always transmits signals toward the CNS
Sensory neurons (afferent)
The 3 nutrients needed for bone growth
What are Vit D, Vit C, and Calcium
This organelle in a muscle cell functions to store and release Calcium whose release is needed for muscle contraction.
What is the sarcastic reticulum?
This is the are of the neuron that receives signals from other neurons or stimuli.
What is the dendrite?
Chemoreceptors detect molecules in which sensory pathways?
Smell and taste
This is a cell type capable of producing an action potential.
What is a muscle cell or neuron?
The process that produces most of the fetal skeleton
What is endochondral ossification?
This is the molecule broken down to make 2 ATP in glycolysis.
What is glucose?
this is the cell type (s) that functions to produce myelin
What is Schwann cells and oligodendrocytes?
This structure is responsible for transmitting vibrations to the inner ear
This method of muscle metabolism requires oxygen and produces ~32 ATP
What is aerobic respiration?
