STUDIES GUARANTEED DISTINCTION
capillaries
small vessels that connect smaller arteries, called arterioles, to smaller veins, called venues, and
carry out gas exchange
carbohydrates
sugars and starches, which the body turns to glucose
cardiac muscle
Involuntary muscle tissue found only in the heart.
cardiovascular system
The system comprised of the heart and blood vessels
catalyst
substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction
adaptive immune system
a kind of passive or active immunity in which antibodies to a particular antigen are present in the
body
adhesiveness
a measure of how well dissimilar particles or surfaces cling to one another
adrenal
A gland above the kidney that produces hormones to regulate heart rate, blood pressure, and
other functions
Aldosterone
a hormone secreted by the adrenal gland that increases reabsorption of sodium ions
allele
A specific copy of a gene
alveoli
tiny sacs of lung tissue specialized for the movement of gases between air and blood
amino acids
monomers that make up proteins

STUDY GUIDE (VERIFIED)
anaphase
the stage in mitosis in which chromosomes are pulled apart to the poles and cell division begins
anatomical position
standard standing position of the body
Angiotensin II
a secretion that acts to restore blood volume and blood pressure by constricting blood vessels,
stimulating thirst, and stimulating production of aldosterone and antidiuretic hormone
anion
A negatively charged ion
antagonist
the relaxed muscle in the pair of muscles that is involved in a given movement
antibody mediated response
the part of our body's immune response that occurs when B cells respond to antigens by
becoming plasma cells, which make antibodies that attach to antigens
antibody
A protein that acts against a specific antigen
antidiuretic hormone (ADH)
a secretion from the pituitary gland that increases the amount of water able to be reabsorbed from
a collecting duct
antigens
a toxin or other foreign substance that induces an immune response in the body, especially the
production of antibodies.
antimicrobial
an agent that destroys, resists, or prevents the development of pathogens
apocrine sweat glands
Found in armpits, around nipples, and groin; Secrete products into hair follicles; Produce sticky,
cloudy secretions; Break down and cause odors;
appednicular skeleton
portion of the skeleton made up of our appendages- bones of our arms, legs, feet, and hands
atom
