role of mitochondria
produces energy in the form of atp
ATP levels rise
blood vessels are hot
blood vessels are cold
hot-get bigger to release heat
cold-get smaller to consume heat
insulin
hormone and regulates the storage of glucose
3 cell organelles and their functions
nucleus-control center of the cell
chloroplast-traps light energy from the sun and converts it into food
lysosome-cleans the cell
two cells ATP is mostly found in
muscle and mitochondria
normal body temp
98/100
organelle cellular respiration mostly occurs in
mitochondria
glucagon
hormone that regulates the release of glucose from storage
3 parts of cell theory
all living things are composed of cells
cells are the basic units of structure
new cells are produced from existing cells
homeostasis
living cells must maintain stable internal conditions and cells must have mechanisms that allow them to control it
normal saturation level
95/100
why do people breathe harder when exercising
need for oxygen increases/co2 levels rise
metabolism
flow of energy throughout the body
two types of cells
eukaryotic and prokaryotic
cellular respiration
pathway that breaks glucose into ATP
normal blood glucose level
90-30 mg
dl
process the muscle cell goes through
what enters and leaves
cellular respiration
in:co2, H2o, 02
out:atp, co2(waste product), h2o
hyperglycemia
hypoglycemia
hyper-too much glucose
hypo-too little glucose
the levels of cellular organization
cell
tissue
organ
gas exchange
oxygen in, carbon dioxide out
the nucleus is similar to what part of the body
the brain
carbon dioxide, oxygen, water, salt, insulin, and glucose is stored where
blood
cells
basic units of structure and function in living things
