1. Systems of the body (11 total):: 1. integumentary
2. skeletal
3. muscular
4. nervous
5. endocrine
6. cardiovascular
7. lymphatic
8. respiratory
9. digestive
10. urinary
11. reproductive
2. respiratory system function: Bring oxygen to and eliminates carbon dioxide
from the blood.
3. Upper respiratory system: nose, nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, pharynx, lar-
ynx
4. Lower respiratory system: trachea, bronchi, lungs
5. the airway is lined with: cilia that trap debris and send them back toward the
mouth
6. Alveoli: tiny sacs of lung tissue specialized for the movement of gases between
air and blood
7. Lung lobes: 3 right, 2 left
8. Membrane surrounding lungs: pleura membrane
9. respiratory system muscles: diaphragm and intercostal muscles which contract
to expand lungs
10. Chemoreceptors respond to: Chemical interaction (smell and taste)
11. Hyperventilation increases blood pH during: acidosis (low pH)
12. Medulla Oblongata: Area in brain where breathing process is controlled
-monitors levels of carbon dioxide
13. Slow breathing decreases blood pH during: alkalosis (high pH)
14. Circulatory system: -Heart
-Blood
-Blood vessels
15. Blood is slowest in: Capillary beds
16. Blood consists of: RBCs, WBCs, platelets, plasma
17. Plasma properties: -contributes to more than half the volume of blood
-consists of proteins, glucose, amino acids, ions, hormones, and dissolved gasses
18. circulatory system function: (aka cardiovascular system) This system works
as the transportation highway for the body. It transports substances such as oxygen,
carbon dioxide, and nutrients in the body.

19. RBC are made in: red bone marrow
20. Platelets: fragments of stem cells serve in blood clotting
21. Cardiac Cycle: Diastole: relaxation phase (blood passively flows through atri-
um, tricuspid valve and into ventricle)
22. Cardiac Cycle: Systole: Ventricles contract
-Blood pushes against AV valves and they shut
-Blood pushes through semilunar valves into aorta and pulmonary trunk
23. The heart is self exciting meaning...: needing no external stimuli
24. right side of heart: pumps blood to the lungs
25. left side of heart: oxygenated blood pumps to the body
26. Pulmonary arteries: carry deoxygenated blood out of the right ventricle and into
the lungs
27. pulmonary veins: carry the oxygenated blood from the lungs into the left atrium
of the heart
28. Blood is spread from ascending aorta branches to the: -Carotid arteries
(Face)
-Subclavian arteries (arms)
-Renal Arteries (kidney)
-Common Iliac Arteries (legs)
29. Blood is dumped into the superior and inferior vena cavae from: -Jugular
veins (face)
-Subclavian Veins (arms)
-Renal Veins (kidneys)
-Common Iliac veins (legs)
30. pulmonary circulation: Circulation of blood between the heart and the lungs
31. Coronary Circulation: The hearts own circulatory system taking place in coro-
nary arteries.
32. Systemic circulation: circulation that supplies blood to all the body except to
the lungs
33. Portal circulation: the movement of blood from the digestive organs to the liver
34. renal circulation: flow of blood between heart and kidneys
35. Arterioles: small vessels that receive blood from the arteries.
-contract and expand
36. capillary beds: sites of chemical exchange between the blood and interstitial
fluid
-made of one single layer of endothelial cells
37. Venues: small veins

38. veins: transport blood from body tissue back to heart
39. Lymphatic System Function: **return excess tissue fluid to the bloodstream
-return of protein from capillaries
-transport of fats from digestive tract
-disposal of debris and cellular waste
40. lymphatic system (lymph vascular system): -Lymph capillaries
-lymph vessels
-lymph ducts
41. Lymphoid organs: lymph nodes, spleen, appendix, adenoids, tonsils and thy-
mus gland
42. Lymph nodes location: along lymphatic vessels scattered throughout the body
(Contain lymphocytes and plasma cells)
43. Spleen: Filters RBC stores and macrophages
(filter unwanted material such as dead RBC's and fight infection)
44. Thymus: Secretes hormones
major site of lympocyte production
45. Hilum: point of attachment by ligaments or vessels
46. digestive system function (Gastrointestinal system): -Movement: mixes and
passes nutrients
-Secretion: Enzymes, hormones and other substances for digestion are secreted
into digestive tract
-Digestion: Chemical breakdown of nutrients into smaller units
-Absorption: The passage of nutrients through a plasma membrane into the blood
or lymph and then to the body
47. digestive system organs: - mouth
- esophagus
- stomach
- intestines
-rectum
Accessory organs include: liver, pancreas, gallbladder
48. Digestion begins in the: mouth
49. Saliva: contains enzymes that break down starch
50. pharynx: throat; passageway for food to the esophagus and air to the larynx
51. Esophagus: rout food takes from pharynx to stomach
52. Paristalsis: the involuntary constriction and relaxation of the smooth muscles of
the intestine or another canal, creating wavelike movements that push the contents
of the canal forward.
53. small intestine: Absorption takes place in the
