1. Sprain When a ligament is stretched or torn
2. Ligament Connects bone to bone at the joint
3. Strain A stretch or tear in a muscle or tendon
4. Tendon Connects muscle to bone
5. Fibrous joints are also called... fixed or immovable joints
6. What part of the nervous system The sympathetic nervous system
is stimulated when the following
occurs: Pupils dilate, heart rate in-
creases, digestion slows
7. What is the correct pathway of Left ventricle, aorta, systemic circuit, vena cava, right atri-
blood through the circulatory sys- um, right ventricle, lungs, left atrium
tem?
8. What is the goal of the right side of To pump un-oxygenated blood (the blood your body has
the heart? used) to the lungs so that the blood can be re supplied
with oxygen
9. Which type of glands produce hor- Endocrine glands

Important for cognitive functions
and control of voluntary move-

ter gland?
17. Which endocrine gland regulates Hypothalamus
balance and body temperature?
18. Which structure of the brain is re- Medulla oblongata
sponsible for normal respiratory
function?
19. What are chemoreceptors? Receptors in the medulla oblongata (and in some arter-
ies) that detect an increase in carbon dioxide or a de-
crease in oxygen and then signal the medulla to correct
those changes
20. Where are T lymphocytes pro- Thymus
duced?
21. Pulmonary arteries arteries that deliver deoxygenated blood from the right
ventricle of the heart to the lungs
