| Potassium symbol | K |
| the simplest chemical component of matter is | element |
| atoms will bind with other atoms to form | molecules |
| atoms with a charge are called | ions |
| a weak bond that occurs between a positively charged hydrogen atom and a negatively charged oxygen or nitrogen atom | hydrogen bond |
| the human body is approximately how much water | 50 to 75 percent |
| what body fluids are not considered pure water | tears, saliva and plasma |
| every solution is composed of two basic parts | solutes and solvent |
| comparing solutions is | tonicity |
| a molecule that releases hydrogen when added to water is | acid |
| the higher PH is | alkalosis |
| the lower PH is | acidosis |
| the four major type of organic molecules | carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids |
| 1. main energy source for cells 2. stored energy source | carbohydrates |
| building blocks for carbohydrates | monosaccharides |
| 1.Glucose 2. Glycogen | carbohydrates |
| glycogen is a starch found in | muscle and liver |
| glucose is found | is a sugar found in blood |
| building blocks for lipids are | fatty acids and glycerol |
| lipid location of the body is | adipose tissue, hormones found in blood and cell membranes |
| fats, steroids and phospholipids are | lipids |
| 1. stored energy 2. regulate the body. 3. give structure to the cell and regulate what goes in and out of the cell | Lipid |
| building blocks of amino acids | protein |
| location of the body for protein | skin, blood, everywhere, muscles and cell membranes |
| 1. give strength 2. regulate the body3. transport other molecules 4. aid in chemicals reactions 5. fight foreign invaders 6. allow for contractions of muscles 7. holds cells together | protein |
| keratin and collagen, hormone, transport proteins, enzymes | protein |
| building blocks for nucleotides are | nucleic acid |
| nucleus of a cell and many places in a cell | nucleic acid |
| DNA & RNA are | Nucleic acid |
| molecules of different types come together to form | organelles |
| the organelles are suspended within the cell in a fluid called | cytoplasm |
| protein fibers organizes the organelles within the cytoplasm is called | cytoskeleton |
| gives structures to the cell, defining what is intracellular | cell membrane |
| move in wakelike motion to move materials past the cell | cilia |
| hairlike extension of cell membrane | cilia |
| provide extra surface area for the cell | microvilli |
| houses DNA | Nucleus |
| carry out cellular respiration and process the energy released to form ATP | Mitochondria |
| assemble amino acids into proteins | ribosomes |
| 1. site of protein production 2. site of lipid production | endoplasmic reticulum (ER) |
| receives and modifies proteins and lipids produced in the cell | golgi complex |
| carry materials from golgi complex to the cell membrane for export outside the cell | secretory vesicles |
| store and isolate enzymes often used for intracellular digestion until they are needed | lysosomes |
| to regulate what may enter or leave the cell by a process called | membrane transport |
| can move materials across the cell membrane in either direction | passive transport |
| passive transport method that moves materials across call membrane using force but no energy | filtration |
| all atoms and molecules maintain a constant state of motion | simple diffusion |
| heat causes molecules to move faster | temperature |
| heavy proteins move slower thank lighter, smaller molecules such as electrolytes and gases diffuse faster | molecular weight |
| the amount of difference in concentration on either side of the membrane | concentration gradient |
| the speed of diffusion is increased with greater surface area so there is more membrane for this to occur | membrane surface area |
| passive transport method is used for molecules that cannot diffuse through the selectively permeable membrane on their own such as glucose | facilitated diffusion |
| a solution may be _____ | hypertonic, isotonic and hypotonic |
| other name for genetic code | DNA |
| in any reaction you start with ______ | reactants and end with products |
| white blood cells need many ________ containing digestive enzymes to destroy bacteria | lysosomes |
| white blood cells that_____ eat and destroy bacteria do not need the same relative amounts of organelles | phagocytize |
| what molecule is found between the fatty acid chains of the phospholipids | cholesterol |
| to regulate what may enter or leave the cell by a process called | membrane transport |
| an important homeostasis concept is fluid and electrolyte balance | osmosis |
| moves materials into the cell in bulk | endocytosis |
| moves materials out of the cell in bulk | exocytosis |
| protein synthesis | making protein |
| protein synthesis is a two stage process | transcription and translation |
| transcription must happen first in | nucleus |
| translation happens at the | ribosome |
| Two types of of cell division | meiosis and mitosis |
| involved only in sperm and egg production | meiosis |
| the process all other cells use to divide and it is necessary for the development of the human anatomy | mitosis |
| mitosis stage 1 | prophase |
| mitosis stage 2 | metaphase |
| mitosis stage 3 | anaphase |
| mitosis stage 4 | telophase |
| sequences of nucleotides that provide a protective cap on the ends of chromosomess | Telomeres |
| study of tissues | histology |
| the four basic classifications of tissues are | epithelial, connective, muscle and nervous |
| covers organs, vessels and ducts and line hollow organ, vessels and ducts | epithelial tissues |
| squamous cells | flat and thin |
| cuboidal | cube shaped |
| columnar | tall column shaped |
| separates epithelial tissue from other tissues is | basement membrane |
| tissues layering is described fin three ways | epithelial tissue, stratified epithelial, pseudostratified |
| connective tissues all have cells and fibers in a | matrix |
| a loose arrangement of fibers in a matrix with a thick fluid consistency is called | loose/ areolar connective tissue |
