Anatomy Ch. 1-5

Anatomy Class Chapters 1 through 5 Review

Respiratory System Nose, pharynx, trachea(wind pipe), lungs. Keeps blood constantly supplied with oxygen and removes carbon dioxide
Cellular Respiration Converts energy in nutrients(glucose) into ATP. Requires oxygen(O2) and gives off carbon dioxide.
Anatomy Is the study of structure.
Organ An organ is composed of 2 or more types of tissues with specialized functions.
System A system is a group of 2 or more organs that perform common functions.
Organism An organism is a group of systems.
atom the smallest unit of matter that cannot be broken down by chemical means (contains a nucleus with protons and neutrons and an electron cloud)
element a pure substance made of only one kind of atom and represented by a symbol such as H for hydrogen
isotopes atoms of an element that contain a different number of neutrons
covalent bond when 2 or more atoms share electrons to form a molecule
hydrogen bond a weak chemical attraction between polar molecules
Cell A membrane bound structure that is the basic unit of life
Cell Membrane The lipid bilayer that forms the outer boundary of the cell
Cell Theory This says that 1. all living things are made of cells, 2. cells are the basic unit of structure and function and 3. cells only come from other cells.
Cell wall A rigid structure that surrounds the cells of plants and most bacteria
Cytoplasm The region of the cell between the cell membrane and the nucleus
Eukaryote A cell that contains a nucleus and membrane bound organelles
Golgi apparatus A system of membranes that modifies and packages proteins for export by the cell
Lysosomes An organelle containing digestive enzymes,
Mitochondria powerhouse of the cell, produces energy (ATP) from oxygen and sugar(Cellular respiration)
types of tissues epithelial, CT, Nervous, Muscle
epithelial tissue for protection, absorption, filtration, secretion
stratified more than one layer
endocrine gland makes hormones in the gland and releases into blood
exocrine gland excretes hormones into ducts to reach specific regions
Synovial membrane lines & lubricates joints
Long Bone Hollow Middle-containing yellow marrow Solid at either end - Red Marrow Covered in Periosteum -connective tissue Growth at epyphiseal plate
Diaphysis The shaft or central part of a long bone
short bone roughly cubed shaped ex. wrist and ankle
flat bone thin, flattened and usually a bit curved. (sternum)
irregular bone have complicated shapes ex. vertebrae and hip bones
compact bone dense outer layer that looks smooth and solid to the naked eye Contains passageways for blood vessels, lymph vessels, and nerves
Spongy Bone internal to compact bone
Functions of bones • Support (—provides hard framework) • Movement (—skeletal muscles use bones as levers) • Protection (-- of underlying organs) • Mineral storage (—reservoir for important minerals • Blood-cellformation (—bone contains red marrow) • Energy metabolism
Red Marrow Hematopoietic tissue found within the trabecular cavities of spongy bone of long bones
Yellow Marrow Bone marrow that is yellow with fat
Osteoblasts Actively produce and secrete bone matrix responsible for bone growth BUILD
Osteocyte mature one cells that occupy spaces (lacunae) that conform to their shape; keep bone matrix healthy MAINTAIN
Osteoclasts Giant multinucleate cells located at sites of bone resorption Secrete hydrochloric acid (dissolves mineral component of matrix) and lysosomal enzymes (digests organic component) DESTROY
Cartilage A connective tissue that is more flexible than bone and that protects the ends of bones and keeps them from rubbing together

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.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
