ATI TEAS 6 Science
1. what is the gland that helps to protect a man's sperm from the acidic environment in females?
seminal vesicles
2. After passing through the collecting duct, urine flows into which of the following genitourinary structures?
ureter
3. Which of the following is not a monosaccharide?
A glucose
B galactose
C Fructose
D lactose
B galactose*
4. Which of the following functions does the myelin sheath perform for a nerve cell?
Insulation and increases the speed of an electrical signal.
5. What is addison disease?
hyposecretion of cortisol (adrenal glands are damaged causing a slow production of cortisol)
Hypo secretion
production of a bodily secretion at a very SLOW rate.
What hormones do the adrenal glands produce?
Cortisol & Alderstone
Hyper secretion
excessive production of bodily secretion. (ex. gastric acid, mucus, or growth hormone)
What two parts are your adrenal glands composed of?
1. Inner medula - produces adrenal - like hormones
2. Outer cortex - produces cortisol
, Amylase
Enzyme that converts starch and glycogen into simple sugars.
Bile is produced, stored, and released into what organs in the body?
Produced in the liver, stored in the gall bladder, and released into the small intestine.
Cortisol
A hormone produced by the adrenal glands (cortex). Increases blood sugar during stress and has anti-inflammatory
properties.
What is a proteolytic enzyme secreated by the pancreas?
Trypsin
What is an enzyme that is capable of digesting proteins in an acid pH?
Pepsin
What is the major enzyme for fat digestion and where is it produced?
Lipase - produced in the pancreas.
What are the major enzymes for protein digestion?
Pepsin - produced in the gastric glands - released in stomach.
Trypsin - produced in pancreas - released in small intestine.
Peptidases - produced/released in small intestine.
Trypsin
helps break down proteins into polypeptides or aa's. Produced in the pancreas.
What are the major enzymes for carbohydrate digestion?
Salivary amylase - produced by salivary glands.
Pancreatic amylase - produced by pancreas.
Maltase - produced by small intestine.
What are the major enzymes for nucleic digestion?
Nuclease - produced in pancreas.
Nucleosidases - produced in pancreas.
What digestive enzymes are produced in the pancreas?
Lipase - breakdown of fats
Trypsin - breakdown of proteins.
Amylase - breakdown of starch.
