BIO 210 TEST 1 PRACTICE QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS FOR EXAM PREPARATION
Terms in this set (143) Q & A
>> Anatomy
-answer- the study of structure (where's it located?....what does it look like?)
>> Physiology
-answer- the study of function at many level (how's it built?....how's it work?)
>> Subdivisions of Anatomy
-answer- Gross
Macroscopic
Microscopic
Developmental
>> Principle of Complementarity
-answer- 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)
-answer- Chemical (atoms and molecules)
Cellular (cells and their organelles)
Tissue (groups of similar cells)
, Page 2 of 23
Organ (contains two or more types of tissues)
Organ System (organs that work closely together)
Organismal (all organ systems--the entity itself)
>> 11 Major Organ Systems
-answer- Integumentary System
Skeletal System
Muscular System
Nervous System
Endocrine System
Lymphatic/Immune System
Digestive System
Reproductive System

>> Necessary Life Functions (8 total)
-answer- Maintaining Boundaries
Movement
Responsiveness

Reproduction (increasing in number)
Growth (increasing in size)
, Page 3 of 23
>> Survival Needs (5 total)
-answer- Nutrients
Oxygen
Water
Normal body temp.
Appropriate atmospheric pressure
>> Homeostasis
-answer- maintenance of a relatively stable internal environment despite continuous outside
changes (a dynamic state of equilibrium)
>> Homeostatic Control Mechanisms
-answer- 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
-answer- Receptor (sensor)
Control Center (determines set point at which variable is maintained)
Effector (response act to reduce or enhance the stimulus/feedback)
>> Chemical reactions
-answer- chemical bonds are formed rearranged or broken
>> States of Matter
-answer- SOLID (definite shape and volume)
