Definition
The study of the body parts you can see. Macroscopic.
Gross anatomy
What is the study of structures and parts of a body?
Anatomy
What organelle stores the DNA?
Nucleus
Which type of transport requires energy to move substances in or out of a cell?
Active transport
The study of how the body parts function and work together.
Physiology
What is the main factor that causes a body to be out of set point or homeostasis?
Stress
What organelle packages various chemicals for transport, especially secretion.
Golgi apparatus
If a chemical travels into a cell and requires no ATP, what can you say about the relative concentration of the chemical inside of the cell?
Lower Concentration
A group of cells forming various building materials of the body.
Tissues
Name five of the eleven organ systems in the human body.
skeletal, nervous, circulatory, respiratory, digestive, muscular, integumentary, lymphatic, urinary, endocrine, and reproductive.
What organelle synthesizes and stores energy for the cell?
Mitochondria
Name at least three ways that substances can get through the plasma membrane.
Channel Protein
Charged Channel Protein
Carrier Protein
Phagocytosis
Pinocytosis
Diffusion
A structure in the body that can change the value of a variable in response to a signal from the control center.
Effector
What are the four basic types of tissue?
Nervous
Epithelial
Muscle
Connective
What organelle breaks down lipids, proteins, polysaccharides, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids? After 4 to 8 minutes without oxygen, this organelle will burst and dump its lethal contents into the cell, killing it.
Lysosomes
List the four phases of mitosis in order.
prophase
metaphase
anaphase
telophase
The process by which large molecules are taken into the cell.
Endocytosis
Whole body
Organ systems
Organs

Cells
Organelles
Molecules
Explain how the plasma membrane can reassemble itself after it has been disturbed.
The phospholipids are polarized on top and nonpolarized on the bottom, which allows the water loving on the outside attract.
In which phase of mitosis does the chromosomes split?
Anaphase
