ultrasound - Correct Ans-uses high frequency sound waves to look at soft tissue
magnetic - Correct Ans-what energy does MRI use
magnetic - Correct Ans-what energy does MRS use
MRI - Correct Ans-uses magnetic energy to look at soft tissue; creates a magnetic field
that makes charged ions in the tissue temporarily line up and creates a picture
MRS - Correct Ans-uses magnetic energy to look at COMPOSITION of tissues
MRS - Correct Ans-what is a good device used to look at tumors
structure can dictate function and function can regulate structure - Correct Ans-what is
the relationship of anatomy and physiology
chemical, cellular, tissue, organ, organ system, organismic - Correct Ans-list levels of
organization from lowest to highest
liver - Correct Ans-what is the largest internal organ
skin - Correct Ans-what is the largest external organ
skin - Correct Ans-what is a limiting boundary for the human body
limiting boundary - Correct Ans-this separates things from the outside world
excitability - Correct Ans-ability to detect change within and around the body
conductivity - Correct Ans-ability to send info about the stimuli from one part of the body
to another to create a response
metabolism - Correct Ans-sum total of all chemical reactions that occur in the body
catabolism - Correct Ans-big to small
anabolism - Correct Ans-small to big
growth - Correct Ans-increase in size of existing cells or increase in number of cells
somatic - Correct Ans-what type of cells can reproduce infinitely
gamete - Correct Ans-what type of cells can only reproduce so many times
Nutrients, Oxygen, Water, Normal body temp, atmospheric pressure - Correct Ans-what
are the things we NEED for survival
Clemson BIOL 2220
, Clemson BIOL 2220
oxygen - Correct Ans-what is the final electron acceptor for cellular respiration that we
need in order to get energy to function
homeostasis - Correct Ans-condition of a stable internal body environment; dynamic
equilibrium
nervous and endocrine - Correct Ans-what are the two stress regulating systems
nervous system - Correct Ans-sends fast, electrical messages that react quickly, but
don't last long.
endocrine system - Correct Ans-sends slow, chemical messages that react slowly, but
last long
positive - Correct Ans-feedback system that intensifies the stimulus/original condition
negative - Correct Ans-feedback system that acts to reverse the condition the stimulus
caused and return body to homeostasis
receptor--> (afferent pathway)--> control center-->(efferent pathway)--> effector -
Correct Ans-what are the components to a feedback system
receptor - Correct Ans-detects a stressor and sends the message to the control center
control center - Correct Ans-sends a signal to effector
effector - Correct Ans-uses information given from control center to bring body back to
homeostasis
Oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen - Correct Ans-what four elements make up 96% of
our body
solid - Correct Ans-which state of matter? bone, teeth
liquid - Correct Ans-which state of matter? plasma, urine, blood
gas - Correct Ans-which state of matter? air in lungs
no. It's shape can change (doesn't have a definite shape) - Correct Ans-is a muscle a
solid? why or why not
gas - Correct Ans-in which state of matter are molecules the fastest
potential - Correct Ans-creating a bond creates _______ energy into the molecule
