BIO 235 MIDTERM 1 QUESTIONS WITH
VERIFIED ANSWERS

k metabolism - sum of al chemical processes

catabolism - that break down molecules, releasing energy.

anabolism - the process of building up larger molecules from smaller ones.

3 things that effect growth in the body size - 1. increase in the size of existing cells

2.increase in the number of cells

3.increase in the size of material between the cells

differentiation - unspecialized cells becomes specialized

reproduction is the formation of new cells for? (2) - 1. tissue growth, repair or replacement

2. production of a new individual

fluid within the cells - intracellular fluid

fluid outside the cells - extracellular fluid

ECF that fills narrow space between cells of tissues - interstitial fluid

what is the monitored variable called in a feedback loop - controlled condition

what is the stimulus - any disruption that changes a controlled condition

what's the receptor - body structure monitoring the changes of a controlled condition and sends inputs

what is an afferent pathway-input - flows towards the control center (nerve impulse or chemical signal)

what is the control center - sets the range of values within which a controlled condition should be
maintained; evaluates the input it receives from receptors and generates output commands when they
are needed

efferent pathway - flow away from control center to effector

effector - body structure receiving output and brings about change and produces a response that alters
the controlled condition

negative feedback system - reverses a change in a controlled condition

positive feedback loop - strengthens or reinforces a change in the controlled condition until its
interrupted-effector produces a response that reinforces the initial change-child birth

disorder - abnormality of a structure or function

,disease - illness characterized by a recognizable set of signs and symptoms

symptom - subjective changes not visible to the observer

sign - objective changes visible to the observer (doctor)

prone - body is lying face down

supine - body is lying face up

ipsilateral - same side

contralateral - different sides

superficial - towards the surface of the skin

deep - away from surface of the skin

sagittal plane - divides the body into left and right

Midsagittal (median) plane - divides into equal left and right sides

parasagittal plane - unequal sides left and right

fronta (coronal plane) - divides front and back (anterior/posterior)

transverse plane - superior and inferior top and bottom (horizontal plane cross-sectional)

oblique plane - anything but 90 degrees

cranial cavity - contains head

Vertebral (spine) cavity - contains spinal cord and vertebral column-continuous of the cranial cavity

Meninges - layers of protective tissue surround the brain and spinal cord

thoracic cavity - chest, ribs, sternum muscles of the chest and a thoracic portion of the vertebral column

pericardial cavity - surrounds the heart

pleura cavity - surrounds lungs

visceral layer of cavity - inner layer

parietal layer of cavity - outer layer

mediastinum cavity - between the lugs extending from the sternum to the vertebral column and first rib
down to the diaphragm-heart, thymus, esophagus, trachea, and BV's but not the lungs

diaphragm - dome muscle that separates the thoracic cavity from the abdominopelvic cavity

abdominopelvic cavity - from the diaphragm to the groin

abdominal cavity-stomach, spleen, liver, gallbladder, small intestine, and large intestine

pelvic cavity-urinary bladder, parts of the large intestine, and internal organs of the reproductive system

,viscera - organs inside thoracic and abdominopelvic cavities

major elements of body mass - nitrogen, carbon, oxygen and hydrogen

lesser elements 8 - Calcium, Phosphorus, Potassium, Sulfur, Sodium, Chlorine, Magnesium, Iron

what are the three subatomic particles - neutrons, protons, electrons

nucleus - core of an atom

proton - positively charged (in nucleus)

neutron - neutral no charge (in nucleus)

electrons - negatively charged in a cloud around the nucleus

number of protons =? - number of electrons

atomic number is what - number of protons/electrons

mass number - sum of protons and neutrons

isotopes - Atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons

radioactive isotopes (radioisotopes) - An isotope of an atom that spontaneously emits one or more types
of radioactivity into stable configuration

half-life - the time it takes radioactive isotope to decay into half

atomic mass/weight - average of the natural occurring isotopes

ion - has a positive or negative charge because it has unequal number of protons and electrons

ionization - the process of giving up or gaining an electron to become stable

molecule - when two or more atoms share an electron

compound - substance made up of two or more different elements

free radicals - atoms with an unpaired electron in the outermost shell making it unstable-become stable
by gaining or losing from another element (this breaks apart important elements) UV rays, x-rays

ionic bond - force of attraction between oppositely charged ions

cation - positively charged ion-loses an electron

anion - negatively charged ion-gains an electron

electrolyte - an ionic compound that breaks apart into positive or negative ions in a solution

covalent bond - two more more atoms share electrons

non-polar - equal sharing of electrons

polar - sharing of electrons is unequal

, electronegativity - power to attract electrons to itself

hydrogen bond - forms when hydrogen bonds to N,O,F

surface tension - a measure of the difficulty of stretching or breaking the surface of a liquid

activation energy - collision energy needed to break the chemical bonds of the reactants so a reaction
can start
