GH125 Final Study Guide With
Complete Solution
Dorsal Cavity - ANSWER Includes cranial and spinal cavities, posterior side of
the body
Ventral Cavity - ANSWER includes the front of the body (thoracic, abdominal,
and pelvic cavities)
cranial cavity - ANSWER contains the brain/ space inside the skull
Spinal cavity - ANSWER Spinal cord
Mediastinum - ANSWER Midportion of thoracic cavity, heart and trachea
located in the mediastinum
pleura cavities - ANSWER Right lung located in right pleura cavity; left lung
in left pleura cavity
Superior - ANSWER towards the head
Inferior - ANSWER means toward the feet
Anterior - ANSWER towards the front
Posterior - ANSWER Toward the back
Medial - ANSWER toward the middle
Proximal - ANSWER Nearer to the trunk of the body
Distal - ANSWER Farther from the trunk of the body
, corpus Spongiosum - ANSWER which surrounds the urethra
Spermatogonia - ANSWER Sperm develop from stem cells called
semen - ANSWER composed of sperm, seminal fluids, and other secretions
seminal vesicles - ANSWER two small glands that secrete a fluid rich in sugar
that nourishes and helps sperm move
pH - ANSWER hydrogen ion concentration
Anabolism - ANSWER Process of building up complex materials (proteins)
from simple materials or building pu
Catabolism - ANSWER Breaking down
Active transport - ANSWER Is the uphil movement of a substance through a
living cell membrane. Requires the cell to expand energy (from ATP)
Passive transport - ANSWER The movement of substances across a cell
membrane without the use of energy by the cell
Omosis - ANSWER Passive movement of water through a selectively
permeable membrane in a presence of at least one non penetrating solute
Difussion - ANSWER movement of particles through a membrane from an
area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration
Filtration - ANSWER Movement of water and solutes through a membrane as
a result of pushing force that is greater on one side of the membrane than on
the other side. The force is called hydrostatic pressure
Facilitated diffusion - ANSWER Also known as facilitated transport or passive
medical transport is the process of spontaneous passive transport (as
opposed to active transport) of molecules or iron across a biological
