Q3: Pathology
A: study of disease
Q4: Characteristics of life
A: movement, responsiveness, growth, reproduction, respiration, digestion, absorption,
circulation, assimilation, excretion
Q5: Define metabolism
A: the chemical processes that occur within a living organism in order to maintain life.
Q6: Anabolism
A: Metabolic pathways that build up molecules, requiring energy.
Q7: Catabolism
A: Metabolic pathways that break down molecules, releasing energy.
Q8: basic physiological needs
A: water, food, oxygen, temperature, pressure
Q9: Homeostasis
A: The body's ability to maintain a constant internal environment despite external
environmental changes
Q10: negative feedback
A: Causes an opposite response to change in our body. Example: Blood sugar regulation
(insulin lowers blood glucose when levels are high ; glucagon raises blood glucose when
levels are low)
Q11: positive feedback
A: positive feedback is the amplification of a body's response to a stimulus. Example
Childbirth
