BIO 253 HONDROS TEST 1 REVIEW
PART 1 EXAM WITH COMPLETE
SOLUTIONS 100% PASS
Anatomy - ANSWERStudy of structure of an organism and the relationship of its parts.
Types of anatomy: gross anatomy, microscopic, developmental, pathological, systemic
Physiology - ANSWERscience that deals with the functions of the living organism and
its parts. How the body works
Characteristics of life - ANSWERResponsiveness, conductivity, Growth, Respiration,
Digestion, Absorption, Secretion, Excretion, Circulation, Reproduction
Responsiveness - ANSWERAbility of an organism to sense, monitor and respond to
changes in both its internal and external environments
Conductivity - ANSWERCapacity of living cells to transmit a wave of electrical
disturbance from one point to another within the body
Growth - ANSWEROrganized increase in the size and number of cells and therefore an
increase in size of the individual or a particular organ or part
Respiration - ANSWERExchange of respiratory gases (oxygen and carbon dioxide)
between an organism and its environment
Digestion - ANSWERprocess by which complex food products are broken down into
simpler substances that can be absorbed and used by individual body cells
Absorption - ANSWERmovement of molecules, such as respiratory gases or digested
nutrients, through a membrane and into the body fluids for transport to cells for use
Secretion - ANSWERproduction and release of important substances, such as digestive
juices and hormones, for diverse body functions
Excretion - ANSWERremoval of waste products from the body
Circulation - ANSWERmovement of body fluids containing many substances from one
body area to another in a continuous, circular route through hollow vessels
Reproduction - ANSWERformation of new individual offspring
, autopoiesis - ANSWERliving organisms are self-organizing or self-maintaining and
nonliving structures are not.
cell theory - ANSWERany independent structure made up of one or more microscopic
units called cells is a living organism
metabolism - ANSWEReach characteristic of life is related to the sum total of all the
physical and chemical reactions occurring in the body
levels of organization - ANSWERatom--molecule--macromolecules--organelle--cell--
tissue--organ--organ system--organism
atom - ANSWERtiny spheres of matter, every material thing in the universe, including
the human body is composed of atoms. Combinations of atoms form larger chemical
groupings
molecules - ANSWERcombos of atoms that form larger chemical groupings
macromolecules - ANSWERmolecules in combination with other atoms form these
larger and more complex chemicals
cytoplasm - ANSWERatoms, molecules and macromolecules in living material form this
gel like material made of fluids, particles and membranes--the essential material of
human life
organelles - ANSWERa structure made of molecules organized in such a way that it can
perform a specific function. Tiny organs that all each cell to live. Cannot survive outside
the cell, but without organelles the cell could not survive.
Types of organelles - ANSWERMitochondria-power house of cells that provide energy
needed by the cell to carry out day-to-day functioning, growth and repair.
Golgi apparatus-set of sacs that provide "packaging" service to cells by storing material
for future internal use or for export from the cell
Endoplasmic Reticulum--network of channels within the cell that act as "highways" for
the movement of chemicals and as sites for chemical processing
cellular level - ANSWERcells are the smallest and most numerous structural units that
possess and exhibit the basic characteristics of living matter. Each cell is surrounded by
a membrane and a single nucleus surrounded by cytoplasm that includes the numerous
organelles required for the normal processes of living
tissue level - ANSWERa group of a great many similar cells that all developed together
from the same part of the embryo and all perform a certain function. Tissue cells are
surrounded by varying amounts and kinds of nonliving intercellular substances, or the
matrix
