All about Bones
Muscular System
100

This branch of anatomy studies large body structures visible without a microscope.

Gross Anatomy

100

This is an atom with an electrical charge whether positive or negative

Ion

100

This structure regulates what enters and leaves the cell

Cell Membrane

100

Which type of bone marrow is responsible for the production of blood cells?

Red Marrow


100

This type of muscle is attached to bones and produces voluntary movement

Skeletal Muscle

200

This is the state of stable internal conditions maintained by living organisms.

Homeostasis
200

This outermost electron shell largely determines whether an atom will participate in chemical reactions. 

Valence Shell

200

What is the energy used during Active Transport referred as?

Adenosine Triphosphate

200

This bone cell is responsible for bone resorption or breakdown.




Osteoclast

200

This connective tissue layer surrounds a fascicle

Perimysium

300

This level of organization consists of a group of similar cells working together to perform a specific function.

Tissue

300

This type of bond shares electrons in a mutually stabilizing relationship.

Covalent Bond

300

What are the two terms that describe the "Head" of the Phospholipid?

Polar and Hydrophylic

300

A soccer player tears a structure that connects one bone to another across a joint. This structure is called a?

Ligament

300

This neurotransmitter is released from the motor neuron at the neuromuscular junction

Acetylcholine (ACh)

400

This metabolic process breaks down larger, more complex substances into smaller, simpler molecules and releases energy.

Catabolism

400

This type of bond forms when oppositely charged ions attract each other, such as sodium and chloride in table salt.

Ionic Bond

400

A cell exports digestive enzymes packaged in vesicles. What is this process referred to?



Exocytosis

400

A teenager's long bones are still growing in length. The region responsible for this growth is the

Epiphyseal Plate

400

A muscle fiber receives a signal, generates an action potential, and releases this ion from the sarcoplasmic reticulum to begin contraction. What is this ion?

Calcium

500

During labor, stretching of the cervix causes oxytocin release, which produces stronger contractions and even more stretching. This is an example of this type of feedback.

Positive Feedback

500

Water is considered this type of molecule because electrons are shared unequally between oxygen and hydrogen.

Polar Molecule

500

A nerve cell uses ATP to move sodium out of the cell and potassium into the cell against their concentration gradients. This transport mechanism is referred to as?

Sodium-Potassium Pump

500

Within 48 hours of a fracture, this structure made primarily of cartilage begins to bridge the gap between the broken ends of a bone

Callus

500

Place these events in order: ACh release, muscle action potential, calcium release, cross-bridge formation

What is ACh release → muscle action potential → calcium release → cross-bridge formation?
