QuestionAnswer
This part of a neuron functions to produce proteins and is often the site of integration (decision-making) --only it has RER soma
These neurons occur only within the CNS and account for over 90% of the neurons in a human body interneurons
Characteristics of mature neurons long-lived, cannot divide, hight metabolic rate, can transmit action potentials. (NOT consume little energy)
Encountering a venomous snake would stimulate this part of the involuntary (autonomic) nervous system and result in sweating, dilated pupils, and increased heart rate and blood pressure Sympathetic
Which neuroglia lines the cavities of the CNS and helps to produce and circulate cerebrospinal fluid? ependymal cells
When an axon in the peripheral nervous system is damaged in an accident, several growth processes "sprout" from the axon stump. In order to reconnect to its original target the sprout must grow into the regeneration tube
Suppose you are testing a cell membrane that has no K+ channels. There is a lot more K+ inside the membrane than outside. What would the membrane potential most likely be? -40mV
Which of the below are functions of Schwann cells? shield all axons in the peripheral nervous system from the extracellular fluid
Suppose you are testing a membrane with lots of Na+ channels. There is a lot more Na+ outside than inside. if the initial potention is -65mV, what would the final membrane potential most likely be? O mV

What are the major effects of vitamin D? it stimulates the intestines to increase absorption of calcium from foods.
When blood calcium drops below normal, there is increased secretion of parathyroid hormone. Increased PTH has which of the following effects? increases the number and thus activity of osteoclasts
Place these steps of bone repair in proper sequence !. cartilage is replaced by spongy bone 2. bone remodeling 3.soft callus formation 4.hematoma formationi 4 3 1 2
Which vitamin stimulates the formation of osteoblasts an is needed to make collagen? Vitamin C
What effect do sex steroid hormones like testosterone and estrogen have on bone? they stimulate increased bone density
Which skeletal muscles moves the cheeks in and out? buccinator
A pregnant, poorly nourished woman may suffer a softening of the bones called osteomalacia
Place the following physical activities in order from the most effective at increasing bone density to the least.. walking playing basketball swimming basketball walking swimming
Which skeletal muscle is a powerful elbow flexor? brachialis
Which skeletal muscles cause flexion at the knee joint? semitendinosus and biceps femoris
Which skeletal muscles cause grinding of the teeth and chewing of food? temporalis and masseter
The ____ is an elaborate system of membranous tubes that wraps around each myofibril and functions to store calcium? sarcoplasmic reticulum
____ muscle is striated and involuntary. Unlike the other types of muscle its cells form branches Cardiac
All of the following are functions of muscles generate heat, stabilize joints, maintain posture, produce movement by shortening

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
