100
basic unit of structure and function. Tend to be specialized in multicellular organisms.
What is a cell?
100
similar standing
What does homeostasis mean?
100
brain, spinal cord, nerves
What are the structures of the nervous system?
100
produces gametes; in females, nutures and protects developing embryo.
what is are the functions of the reproductive system?
100
Why is the liver part of the urinary system?
it produces bile, which aids in the bodys digestion of fats.
200
a group of cells that serve a single function. There are four basic types.
What is tissue?
200
describes the relatively constant internal physical and chemical changes that organisms maintain despite changes in internal and external environments.
What is homeostasis?
200
nose,pharnyx,laryx,trachea,bronchi,bronchioles,lungs
What are the structures of the respiratory system?
200
breaks down food; absorbs nutrients; eliminates wastes
What are the functions of the digestive system?
200
regulating the level of a substance, glucose
One of the livers most important roles?
300
a group of tissues that work together for a single function.
What is and organ?
300
process in which a stimulus produces a response that opposes the original stimulus.
What is feedback inhibition?
300
skin,lungs,liver,kidneys,ureters,urinary bladder,urethra
What are the structures of the excretory system?
300
eliminates waste products from the body.
What are the functions of the excretory system?
300
Diabetes in the result.
what is the result of the failure of homeostasis in respect to blood glucose levels?
400
group of organs that perform closely related functions. They interact to maintain homeostasis.
What is an organ system?
400
The house gets cold, thermostat senses tempature change and turns heating system on, house gets warm.
What is an example of nonliving feedback inhibition?
400
bones,cartilage,ligaments,tendons
What are the structures of the skeletal system?
400
helps protect the body from disease; collects fluid lost from blood vessels and returns it to the circulatory system.
What are the functions of the immune/lymphatic systems?
400
skin, hair, nails, sweat, oil glands
What are the structures of the integumentary systems?
500
the four basic types of tissue.
What is epithelial tissue, connective tissue, nervous tissue, and muscle tissue?
500
body tempature increases, hypothamulamus senses tempature change and sends signals that start cooling mechanisms, body tempature decreases.
What is an example of nonliving feedback inhibition?
500
skeletal muscle, smooth muscle, cardiac muscle
what are the structures of the muscular system?
500
transports oxygens, nutrients, and hormones to cells' fights infectionb; removes cell wastes; helps to regulate body tempature
What are the functions of the circulatory system?
500
brings in oxygen needed for cellular respiration and removes excess carbon dioxide from the body
What are the functions of the respiratory system?
