100
The study of the functions of an organism and its parts
What is Physiology
100
A severe loss of blood causes a decrease in blood pressure. The decrease in pressure causes decreased blood supply, nourishment and oxygenation to the heart causing the heart rate to slow and causes the blood pressure to drop even more. This spiraling out of control can lead to death. What type of feedback system is this?
What is Positive
100
Used in cell reproduction and form the spindle that drives mitosis and meiosis
What are centrioles
100
Chromosomes begin to split and are pulled to opposite ends of the cell during what phase of mitosis
What is Anaphase
100
Large protein molecules within the plasma membrane can serve 3 functions. Name one
What is Let things into and out of the cell (channel proteins) Recognition against body defenses (glycoproteins w/ CHO) take messages from other cells (receptor proteins)
200
the process of transportation of material from inside the cell to outside the cell
What is exocytosis
200
These structures monitor the value of your body's variables
What are receptors
200
Breaks down lipids, proteins, polysaccharides and nucleic acids using enzymes.
What are lysosomes
200
Translation starts when the mRNA reaches what? HINT (3 answers)
What is the anticodon of the tRNA in the ribosome
200
White blood cells use this process to attack foreign cells
What is phagocytosis
300
A group of cells specialized for a particular function
What is a tissue
300
The hormone oxytocin stimulates and enhances labor contractions. As the baby moves toward the birth canal, pressure receptors send messages to the brain to produce more oxytocin. Oxytocin travels to the uterus through the bloodstream, stimulating the muscles in the uterine wall to contract stronger (increase of ideal normal value). The contractions intensify and increase until the baby is outside the birth canal. When the stimulus to the pressure receptors ends, oxytocin production stops and labor contractions cease. This positive feedback mechanism is controlled by what system.
What is the endocrine system.
300
synthesizes proteins "kitchen" hint (attached to rough endoplasmic reticulum)
What are ribosomes
300
Properly transcript and translate this DNA sequence GTA
What is CAU on mRNA and GUA on tRNA
300
List the phases of mitosis in order
What is Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase
400
The ability to let certain materials in or out while restricting others
What is selective permeability
400
A structure in the body that can change the value of a variable.
What is an effector
400
Network within the cell's cytoplasm; used for intracellular transport hint! (hallways)
What is Endoplasmic reticulum
400
What is the normal state of a living cell when not reproducing called in mitosis
What is Interphase
400
If the cell uses ATP to get Na+ out of the cell, where is the higher concentration of Na+? Inside or Outside of the cell
What is Outside of the cell.
500
A state of equilibrium in the body with respect to its functions, chemical levels and tissues
What is homeostasis
500
Your stuck in a cooler and receptors tell your brain you are too cold! The brain sends messages to the muscles to start to shiver and bring your temperature up! What is this common type of feedback system?
What is negative feedback system
500
Packages chemicals for secretion in secretory vesicles and uses exocytosis
What is Golgi apparatus
500
What are two of the three types of cells that cannot reproduce via mitosis?
What are skeletal, cardiac, and mature neurons
500
Name the four basic types of tissues.
What are Nervous, muscular, connective and epithelial
