Anatomy - ANSWERThe branch of science that deals with structure of body parts
their forms and how they are organized
Physiology - ANSWERConcerns the function of body parts, what they do and how
they do it
Atoms - ANSWERMicroscopic particles that make chemicals
Molecules - ANSWERAtoms join to make these
Macromolecules - ANSWERSmall molecules can combine in complex ways to form
these
Cell - ANSWERThe basic unit of structure and function. It is microscopic. They vary in
size, shape, and specialized function, they all share certain characteristics.
Organelles - ANSWERAll cells of humans and other complex organisms contain these.
They carry out specific activities. They are composed of aggregates of
macromolecule such as proteins carbohydrates lipids and nucleic acid's
Tissue - ANSWERCells that are organized into layers are other structures that have
common function.
Organ - ANSWERGroups of different tissues that interact.
Organ systems - ANSWERGroups of organs that function closely together make this.
They make up an organism
Organism - ANSWERMade of organ systems
Metabolism - ANSWERThe sum total of chemical reactions in the body that breaks
substances down and build them up. Reactions of metabolism enable us to choir and
use energy to fuel life processes
Water - ANSWERThe most abundant chemical in the body. It is required for many
met metabolic processes and provides environment in which most of them take
place. But it also transport substances within the organism and is important in
regulating body temperature
, Foods - ANSWERSubstances that provide the body with necessary chemicals in
addition to water. Somebody's chemicals are used as energy sources, other supply
wrong materials for building new living matter, and still others help regulate bottle
chemical reactions.
Oxygen - ANSWERGas it makes about 1/5 of ordinary air. It is used to release energy
from food substances. This energy drives metabolic processes
Heat - ANSWERA form of energy. It is a product of metabolic reactions, and the
degree if he present partly determines the rate at which his reactions occur.
Generally, the more heat, the more rapidly chemical reactions take place.
Pressure - ANSWERApplication of force to something.
Internal environment - ANSWERFluid surrounding body cells
Homeostasis - ANSWERBody parts function only one love concentrations of water,
nutrients, and oxygen and the conditions of heat and pressure remained within
certain narrow limits.
Homeostatic mechanisms - ANSWERSelf-regulating control systems. They share
receptors a setpoint and effectors
Receptors - ANSWERThey provide information about specific conditions stimuli in
the internal environments.
Setpoint - ANSWERTells what a particular value should be. Such as body temperature
at 37 Celsius or 98.6 Fahrenheit
Effectors - ANSWERCauses responses that alter conditions in the internal
environment
Negative feedback - ANSWERIf the receptors measure deviations from the set point,
if actors are activated that can return conditions towards normal. As conditions
return towards normal, the deviation from the setpoint progressively lessons, and
the effectors are gradually shut down this is called negative feedback
Axial - ANSWERHead neck and trunk
Appendicular portion - ANSWERUpper and lower limbs
Cranial cavity - ANSWERWithin the axial portion. Contains the spinal cord within the
sections of the backbone, vertebrae.
Thoracic cavity - ANSWERCavity in the vertebrate body enclosed by the ribs between
the diaphragm and neck containing the lungs and heart
