Comprehensive exam BIOS 252
proximal
part of the body that is closer to the center of the body than another part.
ex: the knee is proximal to the toes
Chemical reaction that uses water and involves breaking molecules down into smaller
pieces
hydrolysis
organelles of the cell
nucleus
ribosomes
endoplasmic reticulum
Golgi apparatus
vesicles
vacuoles
lysosomes
mitochondria
chloroplasts
centrioles
What does the plasma membrane do?
Controls what enters and leaves the cell
Mechanisms for regulating homeostasis Negative feedback is used the most
What kind of tissue is blood?
Connective
Saggital
divides body into left and right
transverse plane
Divides body into upper and lower parts
frontal plane
Divides the body into front and back portions.
what muscle provides a major force
prime mover (agonist)
isotonic contractions
Throughout the remainder of the contractile period, while the length of the muscle changes
and shifts the load, the tension stays relatively constant. come in two flavors concentric and
eccentric
attachment to the stationary bone
organ
Striations can be seen on what types of muscle?
cardiac and skeletal
What is the membrane of skeletal muscles
sarcolemma - contains sarcoplasm, the cytoplasm of muscle cells
Molecule that blocks myosin and actin
Tropomyosin
