Anatomy and Physiology Questions for Final Exam

QuestionAnswer
homestasis ability to maintain a relatively stable internal environment in response to changing external/internal conditions
Steps to make sure homeostasis in maintained 1. Stimulus received ( temp/muscle stretch) 2. Receptor detects stimulus (sensory neurons) 3. Receptor sends info to control center 4. control center intergrates input and intiats change through effector 5. Control center sends output info to effecto
levels of organization, (small to large) atoms, cells, tissue, organ, system, organism
# of protons Atomic Number
# electrons equal to proton if not charged
# neutrons mass #- atomic #
polar covalent bond unequal sharing of e
non polar covalent equal sharing
hydrogen bond between weak polar molecules (H - atom)
Is a polar substance hydrophilic or hydrophobic hydrophilic
nonpolar? hydrophobic
water spontaneuosly dissociates to form ions in equal amounts, so no net charge
Acid in H20 will dissociate to H+ ions (the acid will donate protons)
A base in H20 will dissociate to OH - (the base will be a proton acceptor)
is the H+ or OH- concentrations higher in an acid H+> OH-
Buffers Help prevent pH changes and can neutralize substances if there are changes
When a buffer acts as a base it.... When a buffer acts as an acid it.... example of a buffer accepts excess H+ from acid donates H+ to base blood
biomolecules contain C,H,O and sometimes N, P, S
what is a synthesis rxn monomer + monomer to make polymer
Digestion Rxn polymer broken down to its monomers
nucleotides are linked by____which allows phosphodiester bonds which allow genetic info to be stores and transfer between cells
amino acids are linked by ____ to make____ in a ____rxn peptide bonds, polypeptides, dehydration
______ different proteins that function in inside the cell, outside the cell, plasma membrane, and bodily fluids
Functions of proteins that we talked about catalysts, defense as antibodies, transport, structural support, movement, regulation, and storage
4 different types of tissue epithelial, connective, nervous, muscle
Where is epithelial tissue found body surfaces, lines body cavities, forms majority of glands
characteristics of epithelial cells cellularity, polarity, attachment to basement membrane, avascularity (control bleeding?), extensive innervation, high regeneration capacity
Epithelial Functions physical protection, selective permeability, secretions, sensations
epithelial classification by cell layers simple- 1 layer stratified- 2 or more layers pseudo stratified - appears stratified but all cells connect directly to basement membrane
epithelial classification by shape at apical surface squamos-flat cuboidlal- as tall as they are wide columnar- taller than they are wide transitional-change shape depending on amount of stretch
Simple epithelial is best for absorption, secretion, and diffusion
stratified is best for physical protections
simple squamos alveoli in lungs and capillary walls for diffusion of gasses
simple cuboidal convoluted tubule of kidney for absorption and secretion from filtrate
simple columnar smal intestine for absorbing nutrients, gobelt cell secrete mucosa
non keratinized stratified squamos lining of oral cavity/esophagus for protection
keratinized stratified epidermis of skin, stronger protection than non keratanized
transitional lining of urinary bladder so it can expand and shrink
psuedo stratified ciliated columnar upper respiratory for protection, secretion of mucus. cilia propels mucus
Connective Tissue Proper binds structures
Dense connective tissue proper vs loose connective tissue proper and exampls dense-resistant to stress, stretches and recoils (dermis of skin, tendon between arm bones, aorta) loose - insulation and cushion (areolar, subcantaves layers of skin, spleen)
Supporting Connective Tissue and 2 types physical protection and framework cartilage and bone
fluid connecting tissue Blood

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.
