human males make sperm throughout their lives, beginning at puberty, whereas human females are born with all the eggs that may be fertilized
which of the following terms describes how the male sperm and the female egg typically fuse in animals
internal fertilization
after about an hour of basking in the sun, the body temp of the marine iguana reaches 37*C, and the animal dives into the water to feed. In the water, its body temp rapidly drops, and the iguana must return to the rocks to warm up. this process is an example of
negative feedback
which of the following statements about negative feedback is true
negative feedback slows down or shuts off a process when a set point is reached
for homework, your instructor asks you to write a paragraph discussing how the mouth, stomach, and small intestines work together to process food items and provide nutrients to the body. Which level of biological organization are you studying
organ systems
how do living systems "know" the appropriate temperature or water content within that system?
organisms have a genetically predetermined set point that must be internally maintained
which of the following statements accurately distinguishes tissues from organs
organs consist of multiple tissue types, whereas tissues consist of one or more cell types
mature female eggs develop under the control of hormones within the
ovaries
which of the following sequences places the direction traveled by an egg in the correct order
ovary, oviduct, uterus, vagina
which of the following hormones is partially responsible for initiating labor contractions
oxytocin
when certain hormones are added to the uterus, they induce thickening in the cells lining its walls. which of the following hormones is likely to be responsible for this change
progesterone
a human female has a diploid chromosome number of 46 (2n=46). based on this info, which of the following cells is NOT properly matched with its chromosome number
secondary oocyte: 46 chromosomes
which of the following is a product of the first round of meiosis in males
secondary spermatocytes
which of the following is a type of epithelial tissue
skin
which of the following statements about human sperm and eggs is correct
sperm are much smaller than eggs
insulin is a protein hormone that helps cells use glucose. In type 1 diabetes, insulin-making cells in the pancreas are attacked and destroyed. this is an example of
the endocrine, digestive, circulatory, and immune systems affecting one another
which of the following is a product of meiosis 1 that is NOT in the lineage of ovum formation
the first polar body
disruptions to the development of a zygote can happen at any time during pregnancy. which of the following would be the most vulnerable time period in the development of zygote/fetus/embryo
the first week
in the last few weeks of pregnancy, the level of estrogen in the woman's blood rises. This increase causes
the muscles of the uterus to become more sensitive to the hormone oxytocin
sperm that is ejaculated from the body would pass through which of the following structures last
the penis
which cell in figure 19.7 is a diploid cell and contains duplicated chromosomes
the primary oocyte
some species of fish that live in the cold waters of the arctic ocean have evolved an "antifreeze" protein. why might this protein be important to homeostasis
the protein might prevent ice crystals from forming inside fish cells, which would prevent damage to the plasma membrane when temp are low

they can mate with every individual of the same species that they encounter
during gestation, human development is divided into several stages called
trimesters

a positive feedback loop
