What does the Kidney do? - answer-Produces Urine Functions of Kidney - answer-1. Excretion -removal of wastes from body fluids into urine 2. Regulation of Blood -Ions a. control blood Na+ (sodium), K+ (potassium), and Cl- (chloride) levels -ph a. control blood H+ (hydrogen) and HCO3- (bicarbonate) levels -Pressure and Volume a. control blood fluid volume and therefore blood pressure What three processes do the Kidneys use to perform their functions? - answer--Filtra...

how is joint stability affected by range of movement? : joint stability decreases as mobility increases and vice versa what are the 3 functional classifications of joints? : immovable, slightly moveable, and synovial what are the 4 major components of a synovial joint? : ins a cavity 2. surrounded by connective tissue capsule 3. inner surface of capsule is lined by a synovial membrane 4. articular surfaces covered with articular cartilage 4 accessory structures of synovial joints? : lag...

Anatomy : Describes the structure of the body. Sturcture : Structure determines function Atoms : -the smallest chemical units -ex. hydrogen (H), oxygen(O) Molecules : - groups of molecules working together -Ex. Mitochondria, sarcoplasmic reticulum 2 Cells : Groups of organelles working together and surrounded by a cell membrane. Tissue : -group of cells working together to perform a SPECIFIC task. Microscopic Anatomy : Examines - Cells -Tissues Cytology- : Examines Cells H...

5 cranial senses : olfaction, taste, vision, hearing and equilibrium Olfactory pathway : odor-olfactory receptors-olfactory nerves-olfactory bulbs-olfactory tracts-olfactory cortex Gustatory Pathway : Taste buds are on the dorsal surface of the tongue taste-receptors- cranial nerves-medulla-gustatory cortex 6 primary taste sensations : sweet salty bitter 2 sour umami water Cranial Nerves : Facial nerve(CN VII)- anterior 2/3s on tongue Glossopharyngeal (CN IX)- posterior 1/3 o...

5 special senses : olfaction, taste, vision, hearing, equilibrium and balance where is the olfactory pathway located? : on the temporal lobe of the cerebral cortex what is the pathway of odor the olfactory cortex? : odor goes to the olfactory receptors, pass through cribriform plate of ethmoid bone, CN I synapses on neurons in olfactory bulbs, whose axons form olfactory tract, and then goes to the olfactory cortex gustatory (definition) : taste 2 Where are taste receptors located? ...
