What is the study of the function of the human body?
Anatomy
Give an example of the organ level of organization in the human body?
The liver
What is the breakdown of nutrients?
catabolism
What are the 4 basic tissue types?
epithelial, connective, muscle, nervous
What are the 3 layers of the skin in order from superficial to deep?
epidermis, dermis, hypodermis
What anatomical orientation term is used to indicate "toward the back of the body"?
dorsal (or posterior)
What anatomical orientation term is used to indicate "toward the lower part of a structure"?
inferior
What anatomical orientation term is used to indicate "away from the head end"?
Inferior (or caudal)
What anatomical orientation term is used to indicate "closer to the point of attachment of a limb"?
proximal
You are looking at a diagram of a patient standing in anatomical position. On the sheet of paper
containing the diagram, which thumb points to the right side of the paper?
Left
Are the arms part of the axial or appendicular region of the body?
Appendicular
A patient is standing in anatomical position. The patient moves his hand to scratch his nose. What
anatomical action term is best used to indicate the motion occurring at his elbow?
Flexion
What anatomical action term is used to indicate "movement away from midline"?
Abduction
, Describe the position of the epigastric region relative to the umbilical region in anatomical position
terms?
The epigastric region is superior to the umbilical region.
What organs are contained in the pelvic cavity?
rectum, sigmoid, urinary bladder, reproductive organs
True or false: the ventral body cavity contains the cranial cavity, the thoracic cavity, and the
abdominal cavity.
False: the ventral cavity contains the thoracic cavity and the abdominal cavity. Does not contain the
cranial cavity.
The body is divided into superior and inferior sections by what type of plane?
transverse (or horizontal) plane
A sagittal plane that lies exactly in the midline is referred to as what type of plane?
median (or midsagittal) plane
Which one of the following is not true of active transport?
Active transport occurs against the concentration gradient
List the three organelles, in order, involved in the synthesis, transport and shipping of proteins.
ribosomes, rough ER, Golgi complex
T or F: The purpose of cellular respiration is to produce ADP.
False
T or F: peripheral proteins are found on the outer surface of a cell membrane.
True
T or F: exocytosis is the process that occurs to bring biomacromolecules inside the cell
False
T or F: receptor mediated endocytosis uses a signaling molecule from another cell, binding to the cell
membrane to bring about changes within the cell proteins.
True
T or F: endocytosis is a passive process. It does not require cellular energy expenditure.
False
In your own words, discuss Tay-Sachs disease. What organelle within the cell is impacted? What are
the symptoms of the disease and why did they occur?
Tay-Sachs disease is a genetic disease which one of the normal digestive enzymes inside lysosomes
liking. Because of this enzyme slacking toxic lipid in the brain cannot be broken down. This results in
buildup of lipids which can cause intellectual disability and or death.
