Neutron

What explains the negative charge on the oxygen atom within the water molecule?

Oxygen atoms have a stronger pull on the electrons shared within a covalent bond formed between oxygen and hydrogen

Which of the following best defines potential energy?

Potential energy is stored energy that has the capacity to do work but is not presently doing so.

to maintain homeostasis

Which of the following represents the correct order in which the components interact in a homeostatic control system?

the receptor, the control center, and the effector

The ventral body cavity is subdivided into which of the following sets of cavities?

the thoracic and abdominopelvic cavities

In an ionic bond, __________.

there is a transfer of one or more electrons from one atom to the other

What is the primary energy-transferring molecule in cells?

ATP

A(n) _________ is an electrically charged particle due to the loss of an electron.

Atom

You notice that you cannot read your book through a test tube of fluid held against the print, making it so blurred as to be unreadable. There is no precipitant in the bottom of the beaker, though it has been sitting for several days in a rack. What type of liquid is this?

Colloid

Which of the following organ systems are involved in the uptake and transport of materials required for life-sustaining processes? I. Digestive system II. Urinary system III. Nervous system IV. Circulatory system V. Reproductive system VI. Respiratory system

Digestive, Circulatory, Respiratory

Which of the following statements is false? -Chemical reactions proceed more quickly at higher temperatures -Chemical reactions progress at a faster rate when the reacting particles are present in higher numbers -Catalysts increase the rate of chemical reactions -Larger particles move faster than smaller ones and thus collide more frequently and more forcefully

Larger particles move faster than smaller ones and thus collide more frequently and more forcefully

Which response provides the best explanation as to why ionic compounds easily dissociate in water? -The polarity of water allows it to easily dissociate most covalently bound compounds. -Nonpolar organic molecules such as fats and waxes dissolve well in water. -The polarity of water easily breaks the charges between the oppositely charged ions in the compound. -As a polar molecule, water cannot easily dissociate inorganic compounds.

The polarity of water easily breaks the charges between the oppositely charged ions in the compound.

Which of the following is true of positive feedback mechanisms

The result or response enhances the original stimulus, and the response is accelerated.

Which of the following is NOT one of the three basic steps involved in enzyme activity? -The enzyme releases the product(s) of the reaction. -The enzyme's active site binds to the substrate(s) on which it acts, temporarily forming an enzyme-substrate complex. -The enzyme-substrate complex undergoes internal rearrangements that form the product(s). -The substrate absorbs chemical energy from the enzyme after binding to its active site.

The substrate absorbs chemical energy from the enzyme after binding to its active site.

Which of the following structural levels is a group of similar cells which work together toward a specific function?

Tissue level

Foods are broken down into their building blocks by adding water. This would be an example of which characteristic of water?

Water acts as a reactant.

Water acts to dissolve molecules in the body. How does water dissolve the salt (NaCl) in your mouth from a salty pretzel?

Water acts as a solvent because the partial negative charge on the oxygen in water attracts sodium, while the partial positive charge on hydrogen attracts chloride. This results in the separation of sodium from chloride, thus breaking the ionic bond.

In plasma, a typical body fluid, protein floating around would be considered to be which of the following?

a solute, specifically both a colloid and an electrolyte

Which of the following is formed once the ions in the salt crystal have completely dissociated from one another?

a solution

Which of the following best describes a sagittal plane?

a vertical plane that divides the body into right and left parts

Why is "responsiveness" important for the maintenance of life?

allows the body to avoid potentially harmful stimuli and adjust bodily activities

Which of the following best describes an isotope? -an atomic structural variation in which atoms have differing numbers of neutrons -an atomic structural variation in which atoms have differing numbers of protons -an atomic structural variation in which atoms have valence shell difference -an atomic structural variation in which atoms have differing numbers of electrons

an atomic structural variation in which atoms have differing numbers of neutrons

Water is an important molecule because it __________.

can form hydrogen bonds

Electrolytes are charged particles called ions that are dissolved in body fluids. Which of the following ions would be considered a major anion in the body?

chloride

Something with a pH of 5 would __________.

have more H+ ions than OH- ions

The pH scale __________. is based on the salinity of a solution ranges from 1 to 7is linear is based on the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution

is based on the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution

Which organ systems function as control systems, communicating with other cells and organs to regulate their activities?

nervous and endocrine systems

nonpolar covalent

Which level of structural organization is considered to be the highest (most complex) level?

organismal

Which pH is more acidic, a pH of 3, a pH of 7, or a pH of 9?

pH of 3 (the lower the pH, the more acidic the fluid)

Positive feedback differs from negative feedback because ________.

positive feedback tends to enhance the triggering stimulus while negative feedback tends to return the body to a homeostatic balance or "ideal" level

In a homeostatic control mechanism, which component monitors the environment?

receptor
