100
Chemical processes in the body that join simple compounds to form more complex compounds of carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids.
What is anabolism
100
A compound that stores energy in the muscles when broken down by catabolic reactions it releases energy.
What is Adenosine Triphospate
100
Strong fibers with little capacity for stretch.
What are Collagenous Fibers?
100
A framework of proteins inside the cell providing flexibility and strength.
What is Cytoskeleton?

Genetic material of a cell that carries the chemical blueprint of the body
What is Deoxyribonucleic Acid?
200
The study of structures of the body and the relationships of its parts.
What is anatomy
200
Sugars, starches and cellulose composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen
What is Carbohydrate?
200
Material enclosed by the cell membrane
What is cytoplasm
200
The cellular process of engulfing particles located outside the cell membrane into a cell forming vesicles.
What is Endocytosis
200
Connective tissue fibers that are extensible and elastic. They are made of a protein called elastin.

What is Cytosol?
300
Decrease in size of a body part or organ caused by a decrease in size of a cell.

The transport of substances into or out of a cell using energy.
What is Active Transport?
500
Smallest particle of an element that retains and exhibits the properties of that element.
What is an atom?

Chemical processes in the body that release energy as complex compounds are broken down into simpler ones
What is Catabolism?
500
Protein substance composed of small fibrils that combine to create the connective tissue of fascia, tendons, ligaments.
What is Collagen?
