SLCC Physiology Exam 1 Study Guide
with Complete Solutions
Anatomy - Answer✔️✔️-Study of the structure of the body
Physiology - Answer✔️✔️-Study of the function of the body-function
depends of structure
Level of Organization - Answer✔️✔️-Cell, Tissue, Organ, Organ System-
each cell classified by function
4 Cell Types - Answer✔️✔️-Epithelial Cells, Nervous Cells, Muscle Fiber
Cells, Connective Tissue Cells.
4 Tissue Types - Answer✔️✔️-Epithelial Tissue: inside and out is protected
by a continuous layer-absorption secretion-exocrine ducts-endocrine
internal , Nervous Tissue: communication through electrical impulse,
Muscle Fiber Tissue: Movement, Connective Tissue: connect/link,
anchor/support body structures
Elastic Fibers - Answer✔️✔️-yellow fibers ; made of protein elastin ; stretchy
; add flexibility to certain connective tissues
Collagen Fibers - Answer✔️✔️-Fiber that Bind bones and other tissues to
each other; Found in tendon, ligaments, skin, etc
Fibroblasts - Answer✔️✔️-Are cells that secrete matrix proteins

Ground Substance - Answer✔️✔️-Is the matrix of loose connective tissue
Endocrine System - Answer✔️✔️-Hypothalamus, pituitary gland, adrenal
gland, thyroid gland, parathyroid gland, thymus, pancreas
Provide communication between cells of the body through the release of
hormones in the bloodstream
Nervous System - Answer✔️✔️-Brain, Spinal Cord, Peripheral Nerves
Provide communication between cells through electrical in pluses and the
release of neurotransmitters in between small gaps in certain cells
Musculoskeletal System - Answer✔️✔️-Skeletal Muscles, bones, tendons and
ligaments
Support the body; allow voluntary movement of the body and facial
expression.
Cardiovascular System - Answer✔️✔️-Heart, Blood vessels, blood
Transport molecules throughout the body in the bloodstream
Respiratory System - Answer✔️✔️-Lungs, pharynx, Trachea, Bronchi
Bring oxygen into the body and expel carbon dioxide from the body
Urinary System - Answer✔️✔️-Kidneys, ureters, Urinary bladder, urethra
Filters blood to regulate the acidity, blood volume, and ion concentration;
eliminates wastes

Gastrointestinal System - Answer✔️✔️-Mouth, esophagus, stomach, small
intestines, large intestine, liver, pancreas, gall bladder
Break down food and absorb it into the body-lumens are external
Reproductive System - Answer✔️✔️-Gonads, reproductive tracts and glands
Generate offspring
Immune System - Answer✔️✔️-White blood cells, Thymus, Lymph Nodes,
Spleen, tonsils, adenoids
Defend the body agains pathogens and abnormal cells
Integumentary System - Answer✔️✔️-Skin
Protects the body from the external enviroment
Membrane Potential - Answer✔️✔️-the difference in electrical potential or
voltage across the cell membrane
TBW - Answer✔️✔️-By percent, 60/40/20 rule: 60% of the body is water:
40% of this is in the Intracellular Fluid (ICF), and 20% is in the Extracellular
Fluid (ECF).
ICF - Answer✔️✔️-Fluid within cells. About 70% of total body water or 40%
of the adults body weight
ECF - Answer✔️✔️-Between the cells of tissues: interstitial fluid, plasma in
blood vessels, and lymph in lymphatic vessels
