| Intrinsic control: | is sometimes called autoregulation. |
| The primary ossification center of a long bone is located: | in the diaphysis. |
| Which of these is not a lipid? | polysaccharide |
| If red blood cells containing 10% solute are placed in a solution containing 10% solute, what will happen? | Water will move into and out of the cells at equal rates. |
| Osmosis can be defined as | the net movement of water molecules from a region of lower solute concentration to a region of higher solute concentration. |
| \All of the following are characteristics of smooth muscle except: | thin and thick filaments are aligned in sarcomeres like skeletal muscles. |
| A synaptic knob would be located on a(n): | axon. |
| When neurotransmitters from synaptic knobs stimulate a postsynaptic neuron in rapid succession, their effect can add up over a brief period to produce an action potential. This is called | temporal summation. |
| Movement of the membrane potential away from zero (below the usual RMP) is called | hyperpolarization. |
| A synapse can occur only between an axon and: | a cell body, dendrite and another axon. |
