What system allows the body to move Muscular system
What system is fast acting Nervous system (includs brain sensory receptors spinal cord nerves)
what system secrets hormons that regulate growth reproduction and metabolism endocrine ( pineal , pituitary thyroid thymus adrenal glands pancreas testies ovary)
what systme transports nutrients thru the blood cardiovascular (heart blood vessels)
what system picks up the leaked fluid from blood vessels also know as the immune system Lymphatic ( thoraic duct lymph nodes lymphatic vessels)
what system keeps constant oxygen in the blood respitory (nasal cavity pharynx larynx trachea bronchus left lung)
What system breaks down food into absorstion digestive system (oral cavity esphogus stomach small instesine large instine rectum anus)
what system elimanates nitogenous wastes from body and regulates water electrolytes and acid based balance of the blood urinary (kidney ureter urinary bladder urethra)
what system's only purpose is to produce offspring repoductive Male - seminal vesicles , prostate penis vas deferens testies scrotum, Female mammary gland in breast uterine tube ovary uterus vagina)
what systems are responsible for maintaining Homeostatic control nervous and endrocrine
what are the three factors of all homeostatic control mechanisms receptor- is a sensor that responds to enviroment control center- controls the level set point and determins correct response , effector - provides the means for the control centers output to stmulus
homeostatic control mechanisms are mostly ___ what kind of feddback negitive
the kind homeostatic control mechanisms that are rarely seen are positve during childbirth or blood clotting
The anatomical position is body is erect with feet parallel arms at sides with palms facing FOWARD
A section or plane cut lengthwise or longitudianl is what sagittal
diving the body to left and right planes is called median or midsagittal
a section cut legthwise that divides the body or organs into anterior(front) and posterior (back) parts is cornal
a cut that is horizontal dividing the body or organs into superior(up) and inferior(down) transverse or cross section

What are the subdivisions for the ventral cavity (front) thoracic cavity (diaphragm seprates) abdominal cavity pelvic cavity and abdominalpelvic cavity
what are the 4 quadrants of the abdominalpelvic cavity RUQ RLQ (right upper and lower) LUQ LLQ ( Left upper and lower)
what 3 regions are on the upper RUQ and LUQ Right hypochondriC REGION EPIGGASTRIC REGION lEFT hypochondriC REGION
What are the regions in the middle of the abdominalpelvic cavity R lumbar region umbilical region Left lumbar region
What 3 regions are int eh lower part of the abdominalpelvic cavity Right illac region, hypogastric region Left illac region
what are the 4 forms of energy chemical energy ( kinetic energy) Electrical energy (nerve impuleses) mechanicalenergy ( energy directly involved in moving matter Radiant energy ( travles in waves like an x ray )
simple squamous epithelium has many layers single layer (like floor tiles)
simple cuboidal epithelium are one layer of CUBoidal cells (pancereas and salivary glands)
simple Columnar epithelium are single layer Tall cells also called goblet cells
Pseudostratisfied columnar epithelium are single layer cells that appear to have more then one nuceli
stratified epithelia is two most common several layers its found in sites that receive alot of friction like the mouth esphagus and outer portion of skin
straified cuboidal and stratifies columnar epithelia has how many layers at least 2
simple squamous epithelium has many layers single layer (like floor tiles)

what makes up most of the bones length diaphysis
the diaphysis is covered by a fiberous connective tissue called peristeum
what are the ends of the long bone called epiphyses
what covers the external surface of a long bone articular cartilage
what does the epiphseal line turn into epiphyseal plat by puberty
in adults what is the primary storage cavity for adipose (fat) yellow marrow or medullary cavity
in infants what kind of marrow is storages in long bones red marrow
