| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Anatomy | Structure |
| Invertebrate | No Back Bone |
| Vertebrate | Has Backbone |
| Organism | The Whole Person |
| Organism of the Body | 1- Chemical Level, 2- Organelle Level, 3- Cellular Level 4- Tissue Level, 5- Organ Level, 6- Organ Level, 7- Organism |
| Organ system | Def: Groups of organs cooperating in related functions (11-systems all together) Ex: Respirtory System: Nose, Nasal cavity, Pharynx, Larynx, Trachea, Bronchi, and Lungs |
| Organ Level | Def: Groups of tissues which form a structure with specific functions. Ex: Heart, Brain, Stomach, Liver, Urinary bladder, Skin, and Eyes |
| Tissue Level | Groups of cells which form various "building materials" of teh body Ex: Nervous Tissue, Muscle Tissue, Connective Tissue (CT), and Epithelial tissue |
| Cellular Level | The Basic Unit Of Life!!! Ex: Skin, Bones, Heart Cells, Liver Cells, (in MS cells die) |
| Organelle Level (not in the book) | The microscopic "organs" within cells Ex: Nucleus of teh cells, Mitrochondria |
| Chemical Level | Atoms bonded together into specific patterns Ex: Proteins, Lipids, Carbohydrates, DNA, Vitiamins, Minerals |
| Hemostasis | Maintenance of a stable enviroment within the body around an ideal normal value or set points |
| Stress | A stimulus which causes a change in a varible from its set point Ex: Physical (too hot or cold) Chemical (high or low glucose levels or too much acid in the body |
| Feedback System | Def: System in which information is constantly reported to a central control center, which inittates adjustment Components: 1- Stimulus detectors (receptors) 2- Relay to central, 3- Central control center (NS or Endocrine systems), 4- Relay to effector |
| Positive-feedback System | the receonse of teh system is to make the deviation even greater, not healthy except in childbirth |
| Negative-feedback System | nagative means that any deviation from the set point is made smaller or is resisted, the end result is teh oppsite that it started at. High b/p--Low b/p |
