separate the fingers in the hand
Adductors - correct answer ✔✔muscles that draw a body part toward the midline of the body;
draw the fingers together in the hand
Anabolism - correct answer ✔✔Process of simple molecules combining to form a complex
molecule; requires energy
Anatomy - correct answer ✔✔Also called gross anatomy, is the study of human body structures,
how the body parts are organized, and the science of the interconnected structure of
organisms, or of their parts
Aorta - correct answer ✔✔Largest artery in the body
Arteries - correct answer ✔✔Thick-walled, flexible tubes that carry oxygenated blood away
from the heart to the arterioles
, Arterioles - correct answer ✔✔Small arteries that deliver blood to the capillaries

Bicep - correct answer ✔✔Muscle that produces the contour of the front and inner side of the
upper arm; lifts the forearm and flexes the elbow
blood - correct answer ✔✔Fluid that travels through the circulatory system to supply oxygen
and nutrients to cells and tissues and to remove carbon dioxide and waste from them
blood vessels - correct answer ✔✔tubelike structures that carry blood throughout the body
including arteries, arterioles, capillaries, vehicles, and veins
Body Systems - correct answer ✔✔Also known as systems; groups of body organs acting
together to perform one or more functions
brain - correct answer ✔✔One of the body's most complex organs that controls all the body's
functions
Buccinator - correct answer ✔✔Muscles of the cheek between the upper and lower jaw that
compresses thee cheeks and expels air between the lips
Capillaries - correct answer ✔✔tiny blood vessels that connect the smaller arteries to the
