NLN-PAX Anatomy, Complete Solution
interstitial
The fluid outside the cell, the _____________________ fluid, contains substances such
as amino acids, sugars, fatty acids, hormones, neurotransmitters, and salts
rough
The _____________________ ER serves as a means for transport within the cell and is
made up of many channels and serves to store and deliver the proteins made by the
[attached] ribosomes.
smooth
The _____________________ ER functions in the storage of enzymes and minerals
and the folding of proteins as well as in the detoxification of chemicals and the
metabolism of fats.
golgi complex
The _____________________ _____________________ modifies and packages
proteins destined for use in the cell or for export from the cell.
cell wall
Plant cells can be distinguished from other cells by the facts that they are surrounded by
a _____________ _____________ and contain chloroplasts.
vacuoles
_____________________ are compartments in the cytoplasm that act as places for
secretion, excretion, and storage.
somatic
_____________________ cells are nonreproductive cells.
mitosis
In somatic cells, the new cells are identical copies of the parent cell. This type of cell
division is referred to as _____________________. -- this type of division is useful in
the growth and repair of our bodies.
meiosis
_____________________ is a type of division that takes place in the production of
gametes.
zygote
In meiosis, the _____________________ is created by the union of a sperm and egg
and contains a full set of chromosomes, half from each parent.
four daughter cells (each with half the normal number of chromosomes -- so
when cells combine, have half from each parent)
The product of meiosis is what?
connective
_____________________ tissue contains cartilage, blood, fat, and bone.
taxonomy
The study of scientific classification:
kingdoms, phylum, class, order, genus, species
Unit of classification:
animal, plant, monera, bacteria, fungi
The 5 Kingdoms:
passive
, _____________________ transport does not require energy and makes use of diffusion
and filtration.
hypertonic; shrinkage
When the solute is more concentrated outside the cell than inside it, the solution is
_____________________. The result is _____________________ of the cell.
hypotonic; swelling
When the solute concentration outside the cell is lower than that inside the cell, the
solution is _____________________. The result is _____________________ of the
cell.
filtration
_____________________ is the movement of water and solutes through the membrane
by hydrostatic pressure.
autotrophs (also referred to as producers)
_____________________ are organisms that produce their own food from inorganic
substances.
plants
Example of an autotroph:
heterotrophs (also referred to as consumers)
_____________________ obtain their food by consuming organic substances (either
plants or animals)
herbivores (plant eaters); omnivores (plant and meat eaters)
Primary consumers include _____________________ and _____________________.
carnivores; omnivores that eat herbivores
Secondary consumers include _____________________ and
_____________________ ...
carnivores that eat other carnivores or omnivores
Tertiary consumers include: ....
autotrophs
_____________________ are the most important trophic level in the ecosystem.
biotic
_____________________ factors include the living parts of the ecosystem [that affect
an ecosystem].
abiotic
_____________________ factors are nonliving influences such as temperature,
humidity, or soil composition.
symbiosis
Separate species living together:
parasitism
One species benefits and one species is harmed:
commensalism
One species benefits and one is unaffected:
mutualism
Both species benefit:
biosphere
A _____________________ is the entire portion of our planet that is inhabited by living
things in a variety of ecosystems and communities.
