Physiology

Front 1

Which element by number is the largest in the body

Back 1

Hydrogen

Front 2

Which element is largest by mass within human body?

Back 2

Oxygen

Front 3

Teleological approach

Back 3

why it's there

Front 4

Mechanical approach

Back 4

how it physically got there

Front 5

Physiology

Back 5

study of the mechanisms by which living organisms function

Front 6

List the organization of the body

Back 6

cells-tissues-organs-systems-whole body

Front 7

List the 4 types of tissues

Back 7

epithelial, nervous, muscle, connective

Front 8

intracellular fluid

Back 8

fluid located in the cell of a human body

Front 9

extracellular fluid

Back 9

fluid located outside the cells of human body. Made up of interstitial fluid and plasma

Front 10

List the components that make up the extracellular fluid

Back 10

plasma
inter stitial fluid

Front 11

What is plasma and where is it located?

Back 11

liquid portion
flows in blood canals

Front 12

What creates the environment for the cells

Back 12

Fluid

Front 13

homeostasis

Back 13

maintenance of a relatively stable internal environment

Front 14

How does the body maintain stability?

Back 14

homeostasis-interstitial stays stable by interacting with plasma. Plasma stays stable by interacting with organs

Front 15

List the factors that the body homeostatically controls

Back 15

Concentration of nutrients
Concentration of gases
Concentration of wastes
Concentration of salts/water: Osmolarity
Temperature
pH
Pressure and volume

Front 16

What is meant by stability?

Back 16

Balance of inputs and outputs. Complete constancy is not maintained, only a narrow range. Not everything is homeostatically maintained so variables are ranked in heirarchy

Front 17

negative feedback loop

Back 17

regulatory mechanism in which a change in a controlled variable triggers a response that opposes the change. Two types-intrinsic & extrinsic

Front 18

What are the types of control

Back 18

intrinsic
extrinsic

Front 19

positive feedback loop

Back 19

regulatory mechanism where a change in a controlled variable triggers a response that continues to drive the variable farther from set point.

Front 20

List the types of chemical bonds

Back 20

ionic
covalent
hydrogen

Front 21

covalent bond

Back 21

strong chemical bond where 2 atoms share electrons. Most common

Front 22

nonpolar bond

Back 22

equal sharing of electrons between atoms (no poles)

Front 23

polar bond

Back 23

unequal sharing of electrons between atoms (poles/ends) Partial pos. partial neg

Front 24

ionic bond

Back 24

electrical attraction between two atoms. Weak and forms crystal latic

Front 25

which bond forms a crystal latic?

Back 25

ionic

Front 26

Which bond is the strongest?

Back 26

covalent

Front 27

hydrogen bond

Back 27

weak electrostatic attraction between an electronegative atom and a hydrogen atom covalently linked to a sencond atom- very weak

Front 28

Why do hydrogen bonds form

Back 28

occur because of polarity: part. pos. and part. neg.

Front 29

Why is water a great solvent for ions and polar molecules?

Back 29

It's polarity attracts them

Front 30

hydrophobic

Back 30

substance that repels water (have non-polar bonds)

Front 31

Are lipids hydrophobic or hydrophilic?

Back 31

hydrophobic

Front 32

Is glugose hydrophobic or hydrophilic?

Back 32

hydrophilic

Front 33

hydropphilic

Back 33

substances that are attracted to polar water molucules

Front 34

Are polar bonds associated with hydrophobic or hydrophilic?

Back 34

hydrophilic

Front 35

Are nonpolar bonds associated with hydrophobic or hydrophilic?

Back 35

hydrophobic
