information about specific conditions in the internal environment- can be molecule or cell

What did the interests of our earliest ancestors most likely concern?

injures and illness

Examples of organ systems include

integumentary, skeletal, digestive

Before agriculture, infectous diseases did not spread easily because

isolated bands of people had little contact with each other

The anatomy of the hand, which is ________, allows it to grasp objects

long jointed bones, with attached muscles

Organelles are made of

macromolecules

When small molecules chemically combine they form

macromolecules

Four major uses of water by the body are

metavolic processes chemical reactions to transport substance and regulate body temperature

Examples of Organelles are

mitochondria, ribosomes, etc.

When atoms chemically bond together they form

molecules

Circulation is

movement of substances in body fluids

The forerunners of modern drugs were what?

notions and potions

Respiration is

obtaining oxygen, removing carbon dioxide, and releasing energy from food

teeth can function to break solid foods because

of digestion

Organ systems are formed from

organ systems

Organisims are formed from

organ systems

Cells are made of small structures called

organelles

one-fifth of air is

oxygen

Absorption is

passage of substances through membranes and into body fluids

The structure of the heart includes ____________ which allows it to propel blood into blood vessels

power muscular walls

the application of force on an object is

pressure

a recent anatomical discovery is

previously unknown muscle in hand

Reproduction is

production of new organisms and new cells

heat helps to regulate

rates of metabolic reactions

Responsiveness is

reaction to a change inside or outside of body

the shape of the mouth allows it to

receive food

The three components of a homeostatic mechanism are

receptors, a control center, and effectors

Excretion is

removal of waste products by metabolic reactions

Effectors are

responses within the body that alter conditions in internal environment

Homeostatic mechanisms are

self regulating mechanisms that maintain homeostasis

Tissues are formed from

similar cells to form tissue

Examples of tissues are

simple squamous epithelium, loose connective tissue

Examples of cells are

skin, blood, muscle, brain

Examples of organs are

skin, femur, heart, kidney

What is physiology?

study of functions of body parts

What is Anatomy?

study of structure of body parts (forms and organization)

Metabolism is

sum of all physical and chemical events that obtain, release, and utilize energy

At first healers had to rely on what?

superstitions and notions and potions

Homeostasis is

the bodies maintenance of a stable internal environment

The internal environment of the body consists of

the fluids that surrounds the cell, extra cellular fluids and the cell themselves

Hydrostatic pressure is

the pressure exerted by liquids

Organs are formed from

tissues

The most abundant substance in the body is

water

the five requirements of life are:

water, food, oxygen, heat, and pressure

Preserved bones from children can reflect malnutritioin because

when a child starves, the ends of the bones stop growing which leaves behind areas of dense bone
