ANSWERS (UPDATED TO PASS)
1. Anatomy study of the structure of living organisms
2. positive feedback feedback that tends to cause the level of a variable to change in the
same direction as an initial change
3. Anabolism energy-requiring building phase of metabolism in which simpler
substances are combined to form more complex substances
4. Physiology study of the function of living organisms
5. Biochemistry study of the chemical composition and reactions of living matter
6. negative the most common homeostatic control mechanism; net ettect is that the
feed- back output of the system shuts ott the original stimulus or reduces its
intensity
7. Catabolism process in which living cells break down substances into simpler substance
8. Histology branch of anatomy dealing with the microscopic structure of tissues
9. Homeostasis a state of body equilibrium or stable internal environment of the body
10. Metabolism sum total of the chemical reactions occurring in the body cells
11. anatomical standard body position; body is erect with feet slightly apart; "standing at
posi- tion atten- tion"
12. Receptor a cell or nerve ending of a sensory neuron specialized to respond to
particular
types of stimuli
13. Control center determines set point which is the level or range at which a variable is to
maintained; analyzes input
14. Effector organ, gland, or muscle capable of being activated by nerve endings

& para) right & left portions
27. Frontal (coronal) longitudinal (vertical) plane that divides the body or an organ into anterior
posterior parts
28. Transverse a plane running from right to left, dividing or an organ into superior &
inferior
