Hormones
This hormone, the final output of the HPA axis, is primarily released in response to stress.
Cortisol
This blood type is considered the Universal Donor because it lacks both A and B antigens on its red blood cells.
O neg
This type of MHC molecule is found on nearly all nucleated body cells and presents endogenous (intracellular) antigens.
MHC 1
During normal, quiet inhalation, the pressure inside the lungs, or intrapulmonary pressure, becomes this compared to atmospheric pressure.
less than
Chemical digestion for this macromolecule begins in the stomach with the enzyme pepsin.
protein
High levels of T3 and T4 inhibit the release of TSH from the anterior pituitary gland, which is an example of this control mechanism.
Negative Feedback
This immune response, the clumping of red blood cells occurs when recipient antibodies bind to donor antigens.
agglutination
This is the most abundant class of antibody in the blood and is the dominant antibody involved in the secondary immune response due to its long half-life.
IgG
(Antidiuretic Hormone) regulates the reabsorption of water by specifically targeting this nephron structure.
collecting duct
The release of the hormone secretin is primarily triggered by this condition in the duodenum.
decreased duodenal pH
GnRH stimulates the release of these two gonadotropins from the anterior pituitary that target the gonads.
LH & FSH
This measurement is calculated by multiplying the heart rate by stroke volume
Cardiac Output
Helper T cell is activated when it recognizes an antigen presented by an Antigen-Presenting Cell using this specific MHC class.
MHC II
This is the primary form in which CO2 is transported in the blood.
Bicarbonate
Name the tube that sperm enters after leaving the epididymis and before joining the ejaculatory duct.
vas deferens
his outer layer of the Adrenal Cortex releases Mineralocorticoids, like aldosterone, to regulate Na & K
Zona Glomerulosa
On an ECG, this complex represents the electrical depolarization of the ventricles.
QRS complex
This is the primary difference between the Innate and Adaptive immune systems, allowing the Adaptive system to respond much faster and stronger upon second exposure.
memory
The reabsorption of this specific ion is regulated by Parathyroid Hormone in the Distal Convoluted Tubule
Calcium
Fertilization of the oocyte normally occurs in this specific region of the female reproductive tract.
ampulla of oviduct
this hormone promotes energy storage by increasing glucose uptake into cells and glycogen synthesis, and is released when blood glucose is high
insulin
An increase in Capillary Hydrostatic Pressure, often due to hypertension, will cause an increase in this process at the capillary bed, potentially leading to edema.
Filtration
When a virus enters the body, the initial response involves cells like macrophages and Natural Killer cells, classifying it as this type of immunity.
Innate Immunity
A blood sample with a pH of 7.25 and a high PCO2 indicates this specific type of acid-base imbalance.
respiratory acidosis
This uterine cycle phase occurs simultaneously with the ovarian luteal phase and is characterized by progesterone dominance to prepare the endometrium for implantation.
