Gross Anatomy - Correct Answers What is the study of large body structures?
"Excretion" of metabolic wastes - Correct Answers Expiration (breathing out) is how the body removes
excessive carbon dioxide from the blood. This is an example of what?
Erect with feet slightly apart, head and toes pointing forward with arms hanging at the sides, palms face
forward, and thumbs point away from the body. - Correct Answers Define the anatomical position.
The lining the wall which encloses the lungs - Correct Answers The parietal pleura represents what?
The ability to maintain relatively stable internal conditions even though the outside world changes
continuously. Also means, the body's ability to maintain "normal" balance. - Correct Answers What is
homeostasis?
1. atom
2. molecules
(Chemical Level)
3. organelles
4. cells
(Cellular Level)
5. tissues
6. organs
7. organ systems
8. organisms - Correct Answers Sequence from the simplest to most complex
Dorsal Cavity (posterior/back) protects the fragile nervous system organs and it has two subdivisions:
cranial cavity (brain) and vertebral/spinal cavity (spinal cord).
, Ventral Cavity (anterior/front) houses internal organs collectively called the viscera (an organ in a body
cavity). It also has two subdivisions: thoracic cavity (heart & lungs) and abdominopelvic cavity
(abdominal-digestive organs & pelvic-reproductive organs, bladder, and rectum)
*Look in the e-textbook about the serous membranes in the Ventral Cavity. - Correct Answers Aspect of
Dorsal vs Ventral Cavity
Anatomy studies the structure of body parts and their relationships to one another. Physiology concerns
the function of the body and how the body parts work and carry out their life-sustaining activities. -
Correct Answers Anatomical perspective vs physiological
A high degree of unsaturated bonds (triglycerides) - Correct Answers Lipids that we refer to as oils at
room temperature have what?
The sequence of the nucleotides - Correct Answers The genetic information is coded in DNA by what?
1. Organic substances
2. Made up of nitrogen, oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen
3. The fundamental constituent of the cytoplasm of the cell
4. Structural elements of body tissues
5. Made of amino acids
6. Gives heat and energy to the body and also aid in
building and repair - Correct Answers Characteristics of proteins
Glycogen - Correct Answers Carbohydrates are stored in the liver and skeletal muscles in what form?
Carbohydrates: monomers
Lipids: fatty acids & glycerol
Proteins: amino acids
