BIO 210 Test 1 Complete Study Guide, Practice
Questions & Verified Exam Review 2026–2027
Anatomy - correct answers -the study of structure (where's it located?....what does it look like?)
Physiology - correct answers -the study of function at many level (how's it built?....how's it work?)
Subdivisions of Anatomy - correct answers -Gross
Macroscopic
Microscopic
Developmental
Principle of Complementarity - correct answers -Anatomy and Physiology are inseparable
function always reflects structure
what a structure can do depends on its specific form
Level of Structural Organization (in order-smallest to largest) - correct answers -Chemical (atoms and
molecules)
Cellular (cells and their organelles)
Tissue (groups of similar cells)
Organ (contains two or more types of tissues)
Organ System (organs that work closely together)
Organismal (all organ systems--the entity itself)

, Water
Normal body temp.
Appropriate atmospheric pressure
Homeostasis - correct answers -maintenance of a relatively stable internal environment despite
continuous outside changes (a dynamic state of equilibrium)
Homeostatic Control Mechanisms - correct answers -Negative Feedback (regulating body tempand
regulating of bld volume in ADH) & Positive Feedback(INHANCEMENT OF LABOR CONTRACTIONS OR
BLOOD CLOTTING
(*once positive feedback achieves what it needs, negative feedback stops it*) nervous and endocrine
systems
Components of a Control Mechanism - correct answers -Receptor (sensor)
Control Center (determines set point at which variable is maintained)
Effector (response act to reduce or enhance the stimulus/feedback)
Chemical reactions - correct answers -chemical bonds are formed rearranged or broken
States of Matter - correct answers -SOLID (definite shape and volume)
LIQUID (definite volume, changeable shape)
GAS (changeable volume and shape)
Kinetic Energy - correct answers -anything in motion or in the process of being used
