Deductive reasoning - ANSWERMethod whereby conclusions follow from general
principles. Leads to a specific conclusion.
Inductive reasoning - ANSWERMethod of arriving at general principles from specific
facts. Conclusion is formed by information that is most likely true
Atoms - ANSWERThe smallest part of an element that still retains all the original
properties of the element. They combine to form molecules
Molecules - ANSWERa chemical bonding of atoms. They combine to form cells!!!
Organs - ANSWERTwo or more tissue types that work together to perform a specific
function
What are the four types of tissue? - ANSWERepithelial, connective, muscular, and
nervous
Epithelial tissue - ANSWERProvides covering or produce secretions. Commonly exists
in layers and does not have its own blood supply. Because of this, it depends on
nearby capillaries for food and oxygen, via diffusion.
What are the two TYPES of epithelial tissue? - ANSWER1. Simple epithelium = One
layer of cells. Found in body structures where absorption, secretion, and filtration
occur.
2. Stratified epithelium = Multiple layers of cells. Serves as protection
What are the three SHAPES of epithelial tissue? - ANSWERSquamous, cuboidal, and
columnar
,What body parts are made of connective tissue? - ANSWERtendons, ligaments,
bones, blood, and adipose (fat). Some connective tissues, such as ligaments, do not
have their own blood supply.
tendon - ANSWERstrong connective tissue that attaches muscle to bone
Ligament - ANSWERstrong connective tissue that attaches bone to bone
What are the three types of muscle tissue? - ANSWER1. Skeletal = Supports
voluntary movements connected to bones in the skeletal system
2. Cardiac = Found in heart. Under Involuntary control
3. Smooth = Found in walls of hollow organs such as intestines, blood vessels,
bladder, and uterus. Also under involuntary control
Nervous tissue makes up the... - ANSWERBrain, spinal cord, and nerves
The circulatory system is made up of what? What is its function? - ANSWERThe
heart, blood vessels, and blood. Circulates and distributes various substances
throughout the body such as oxygen, hormones, and nutrients from food
The digestive system consists of... - ANSWERAll the organs from mouth to the anus.
This includes the esophagus, stomach, small and large intestines, rectum, liver,
pancreas, and anus.
What is the function of the digestive system? - ANSWERIndigestion and breakdown
of food. MANUFACTURES ENZYMES that break down food so nutrients can be passed
into the blood and then into the body
what parts is the small intestine made of, and what is its function? - ANSWERThe
small intestine is made up of the duodenum, jejunum and ileum. It is the site for
nutrition absorption.
ABSORBS NUTRIENTS
What is the function of the colon? - ANSWERthe colon removes WATER from the
waste that remains after absorption by the small intestine.
REMOVES WATER
What is the function of the liver? - ANSWERThe liver produces bile that helps break
down fats.
PRODUCES BILE
, What is the function of the pancreas? - ANSWERThe pancreas delivers enzymes to
the small intestine that aid in digestion
DELIVERS ENZYMES
What is the function of the endocrine system? - ANSWERThe endocrine system
controls body functions such as growth and metabolism. It is made up of glands that
secrete hormones to the blood, then to organs, then to the rest of the body.
what are the glands of the endocrine system? - ANSWERthe pineal, pituitary,
thalamus, hypothalamus, thyroid, thymus, and adrenal glands.
PPHATTT
what is the integumentary system made up of, and what is its function? -
ANSWERmade up of the skin, mucous membranes, hair, and nails. Protects internal
tissues from injury and pathogens. Also waterproofs the body and regulates body
temperature.
HNMS (like the store H&M)
what is the function of the lymphatic system? - ANSWERLymph nodes and lymph
vessels carry lymph, Which is a clear fluid rich in antibodies. Houses and transports
white blood cells to and from lymph nodes. Returns leaked fluid back into the blood
vessels (back into blood).
What does the lymphatic system consist of? - ANSWERThe spleen, thymus, and
tonsils. They are all made of lymphoid tissue.
Muscular system - ANSWERThe muscular system consists ONLY of skeletal muscles,
as well as tendons and ligaments. The muscular system DOES NOT include cardiac
and smooth muscles, which are involuntary
What parts does the nervous system consist of, and what is its function? -
ANSWERThe nervous system consists of the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. It is the
body's control system. Sensory receptors detect stimuli that can occur both inside
and outside the body.
What does the reproductive system consist of? - ANSWERTestes, penis, ovaries,
vagina, and breasts. These organs house hormones that encourage or suppress
activities within the body, and they also influence the development of the body.
What is the function of the respiratory system? - ANSWERThe respiratory system
keeps the body's cells supplied with oxygen, and it removes CO2 as it is released
from cells. Alveoli are tiny air sacks in the lungs through which oxygen and CO2 move
in and out of via small blood vessels called arterioles.
