include homeostasis, metabolism, genetics, and physiological regulation. A
comprehensive review for A&P students preparing for finals.
What is the difference between anatomy and physiology - answer✔✔anatomy-
study of structure physiology- study of function what are the levels of organization -
answer✔✔subatomic particle- protons, electrons, neutrons atom molecule
macromolecule organelle cell tissue organ organ system organism what are the
characteristics of life? - answer✔✔movement responsiveness respiration
absorption secretion digestion assimilation- changing of absorbed substances into
chemically different forms circulation reproduction growth what are the
requirements of life? - answer✔✔water food heat pressure oxygen define

what happens to salts when dissolved in water and what is produced? -
answer✔✔The salt molecules are "torn apart" by the water, and are reduced to
sodium (Na+) and chlorine (Cl-) ions. what is the pH scale? what ions are involved in
the pH scale? - answer✔✔pH scale- indicated the concentration of hydrogen ions
