|
An inhibitor targeting the electron transport chain would most likely target which organelle |
Mitochondria, which utilizes ETC and produces ATP |
|
Functions of epithelium |
Provide covering or produce secretions |
|
Respiratory system function and components |
Nose, throat, lungs. - to take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide |
|
Digestive system function and components |
Mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine and large intestine |
|
Immune system function and components |
Spleen, bone marrow, lymph nodes. - Protects the body from foreign pathogens |
|
Endocrine System Function and components |
Hypothalamus, pituitary, adrenal glands, thyroid, testes, ovaries, pancreas. Function is to produce and secrete hormones to control bodily processes including glucose regulation, sleep cycles, and gametogenesis |
|
Urinary system function and components |
Kidneys, ureters, bladder, urethra. Filters blood and eliminates waste through urine |
|
Reproductive system function and components |
Males: testes, penis Females: ovaries, uterus, vagina Function: Produce gametes and facilitate fertilization |
|
Muscular System |
= muscle. Enables movement of the body |
|
Nervous system components and function |
Brain, spinal cord, nerves Function is to receive and process stimuli, transmit information, and control bodily functions |
|
Skeletal System |
=Bones. Function is to protect the internal organs, create blood cells, provide a framework for muscle |
|
Circulatory system function and components |
Heart and blood vessels Function is moving blood through out the body to enable nutrient delivery to and waste removal from tissues |
|
Coronal Plane |
|
|
Sagittal Plane |
|
|
Transverse Plane |
|
|
Directional Terminology |
|
|
Macrophages (immune cell responsible for breaking down pathogens) have more of what kind of organelle? |
Lysosomes, which break down cellular waste |
|
Urea buildup is most likely due to failure of which organ system? |
Urinary. Liver creates urea but Urinary system removes it. |
