What is physiology? correct answers the study of function of the body - how the body parts work
and carry out their life sustaining activities
Cell correct answers The basic unit of structure and function in living things
Level of organization correct answers atom, molecule, cell, tissue, organ, organ system,
organism, population of one species, eco system of diff species, biosphere
Homeostasis correct answers a constant state of natural balance within the body
placebo effect correct answers a positive result from a healing method due to a symbolic or
otherwise nonmaterial factor
nocebo effect correct answers a negative placebo effect due to the expectation of adverse
consequences from receiving treatment
dependent variable correct answers WHAT YOU MEASURE- ON Y AXIS
independent variable correct answers variable that is manipulated
control group correct answers the group that does not receive the experimental treatment.
Atom correct answers Basic unit of matter
3 subatomic particles correct answers protons, neutrons, electrons
,Protons correct answers an atom that gains/loses protons becomes different element
Electron correct answers becomes ion in same element
