Unit 1 S+F of Cells, DNA, Proteins,Homeostasis, Immune Sy+Pathogens (R)

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Term
Definition
Parasite   An organism that lives in or on another organism (host) Ex. Fleas, tick, lice , Etc..  
🗑
Bacteria   Damages your cells, reproduces asexually. Ex. Strep, ear infections. Etc...  
🗑
Antibiotics   Against living things  
🗑
Fungus   Spreads easily, reproduces asexually. Ex. Athletes foot, ring worm. Etc...  
🗑
Virus   Can only reproduce if they use your cells, cannot be killed by medicine or antibiotics  
🗑
Antibody   White blood cell can inactivate antigens, antibodies are Y shaped  
🗑
Helper T-Cells   Stimulates B-Cell to make antibody and gets killer T-Cells ready.  
🗑
White Blood Cells   Controls your body looking for pathogens or foreign invaders.  
🗑
Function of the Immune System   To keep your body safe from pathogens and maintain homeostasis  
🗑
How allergies affect the immune system   Causes and immune response to a harmless substance, creates swelling, itchy eyes, hives. Etc...  
🗑
How Auto immune disorders affect the immune system   Causes immune response to kill your own cells, also causes damage to your cell and they don't work properly  
🗑
How HIV/Aids affect the immune system   Causes a virus to attack your T-White Cells or immune system, then there is no defense system so the simplest pathogen can kill us.  
🗑
The Villi   Is part of the digestive system interacting with capillarities  
🗑
The Alveoli   Is part of the respiratory system interacting with capillaries of the circulatory system to put oxygen into and remove carbon dioxide from the blood  
🗑
The Capillaries   Is part of the circulatory system interacting with all cells and then with the kidney, skin, alveoli of the excretory system  
🗑
Nervous and Endocrine system   2 systems that communication occurs the most  
🗑
Location and Function of the villi   Located in the small intestine digests nutrients, glucose, amino acids, are absorbed and diffused from the villi to the capillaries of the blood stream  
🗑
Increase in villi =   increase in the surface area =increase in absorption of the nutrients  
🗑
Location and Function of the Alveoli   Located in lungs, responsible for oxygen and Co2 exchange from the alveoli to the blood stream or capillaries.  
🗑
Increase of aveoli =   increase of surface area= maximum change of Co2  
🗑
Function of the capillaries   Pick up waste from our cells and deliver them to our excretory organs. Capillaries connects the cells, and it allows for exchange of nutrients, oxygen, and waste.  
🗑
How neuron messages get from one neuron to the next   The neurons line up to send messages throughout the body, then chemicals called neurotransmitters are released into the the synapse so the message can be sent. Chemical attach to the receptors based on shape and can then communicate their message.  
🗑
How do the glands send messages to organs   The endocrine system uses glands that make hormones that travel in the blood to match the receptors on the cells so the message can deliver  
🗑
Nervous System Functions for sending messages   Message is released by a neuron, uses neurotransmitters, message is sent through synapse, structure and shape is important, receptor receives messages.  
🗑
Endocrine System Functions for sending messages   Message is released by a gland, messages is in a form of a hormone, message is sent using the blood, structure and shape is important, receptor receives messages.  
🗑
Examples of an organism maintaining homeostasis   Sweating to cool down your body, the urge to urinate so you can remove waste from your body, blinking to regulate water in your eyes  
🗑
Fear response   Nervous System, neurotransmitter, adrenal gland, hormone or adrenal in the blood = lungs increased breathing or increased heart rate or liver releases glucose in the blood.  
🗑
Levels of organization   Atoms, elements, organelle, cells, tissues, organs, organ system  
🗑
Difference between plant an animal cell   Chloroplast and the cell wall is only found in plant cells  
🗑
Nucleus   Brain of the cell  
🗑
Cell Membrane   Controls what enters and exits the cell, communicates with other cells  
🗑
Ribosome   Makes protein through protein synthesis  
🗑
Mitochondria   Powerhouse of the cell, makes energy for the cell through cellular respiration  
🗑
Cytoplasm   Gel-like substance that fills the cells, chemical reactions occurs here  
🗑
Vacuole   Stores waste, water, and food for the cell  
🗑
Chloroplast   Makes food for the plant cells through photosynthesis  
🗑
Cell Wall   Protects the cells, gives the shape  
🗑
8 Life processes of living organisms.   Nutrition, Transport, Excretion, Cellular Respiration, Synthesis, Growth Development, Reproduction, Regulation  
🗑
3 Life processes that MOVE materials into, through or out of the cell or organism   Nutrition, transport, and excretion are the 3 life processes that involve the cell membrane.  
🗑
4 Life processes that use ingested materials and create waste   Cellular Respiration, Synthesis, Growth Development, Reproduction, Regulation are the 4 processes that involve the Nucleus expect cellular respiration  
🗑
Nucleus Organelle   Cell, nucleus, chromosome, DNA, gene  
🗑
In the DNA   C-G A-T G-C T-A  
🗑
In the MRNA   C-G and G-C but A replaces T and U replaces A  
🗑
The directions of DNA for our traits   1 Gene DNA codes for 1 protein and based on it's shape it gives us 1 trait  
🗑
MRNA   is the copy or a different version of the DNA  
🗑
Order of DNA and the traits of an organism   DNA Based sequence, amino acids, protein shape, protein function, trait  
🗑
Enzymes   Speed up reactions build up and breakdown molecules  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
